Very nice. Open and pleasant mix.

Makes me want to get out my skinny tie and pointy shoes and dance around the house.

Massively cool tune, performance, and project. Yeah, its Steely Dan all over the place, and I'm talking about the band, not the metallic fictional dildo. It really sounds a lot like late, swinging-funk Gaucho Dan, with punchy, percussive horns and a great groove. Think Babylon Sisters. Great bridge and I love the detailed arrangement.
 
Real good stuff.
 
Cheers,

Lovely stuff 'Olpal. Could be an outtake from Kamikiriad.

Superb for a Sunday! Fagan and Becker as reflected in the sunglasses of Allen Tousaint's who perhaps was thinking what Lowell George or Mose Allison would've sounded like if they had had the good fortune to be born in "Naw Lins"
All is excellent but the horns are truly the icing on that cakewalk! (it slipped past me, really LOL)
Time to "tour the southland in a traveling minstrel show"? Thank you kindly for that bit of delight!

Thanks again fellers! I've got several tracks that only await vocals and I'm forcing myself to go ahead and finish them. This one actually started with those horns...just goofing with the swells. But Bill got it right in one of his critiques...the snare sound is the key component.

Oh yes.
This is my favorite indie song of the year so far.
Lyrics are great ("it's gettin' late, time to skate, the party's windin' down"...love that!)
Bridge is perfect.  Mix is spot on, clean as a dog's hind tooth.
Great work 'olpal!

Fantastic! I do agree with the others...I could hear Donald Fagan on this easy.
