Absolutely spot-on for the genre and period, this really has that Stax vibe. Love that guitar riff and tone, the horns, drums..all perfect.

Cool track. Not big on the vocals but the instrumentation is great. I really like those horns especially. Where did you find those horn sounds at or did you hire brass players?      

Thanks for the listen and comment, appreciated!
The horns are Native Instruments Session Horns, played with Kontakt 5. Session Horns is a fairly new NI sample set, this is the first time I've used it. It has a really nice set of parameters you can use to adjust voicing etc.

Chandler, James, and Frank...

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it, I had a ball doing it, really takes me back to my younger days. I grew up on this kind of stuff.

Thanks again!

Really liked this. Its groovy, the instrumentation is really well played, especially the guitars and the horns.

The vox are good, but they don't for a better word, stand out. They are almost just like another instrument in the mix. Which is fine, the song is what it is and I like it.

Really nice job on this one, Rob.  You definitely captured the essence of the genre, and the horn section was outstanding.

This is really cool!  Those horns sound great, as well as the guitars, vocals, and all.  Nicely done!
