Ring Of Fire



Updated in  Stereo for my friend Shad

For those that don't "get it", I was not trying to sing the original verse melody. I decided to create my "take" on it.

Also, I only had a four hour window to create the whole song in and I (at least) accomplished that. 


Piano, guitar & lap steel were generated by RealTracks from BIAB. The bass, drums and vocals were done by me.

The recording is good? I'll withhold comment on other aspects.

This is a song about the moring after having way too much hot sauce on your tacos the night before, ya?

Ed, they have this new invention that has taken music to a whole new level. Its called Stereo. Basically, instead of the single mono track we all know and love, it has two tracks with different parts in each that actually make is seem like the instruments can be pinpointed within the room. It is really cool. You will be blown away. I was. I have been thinking my next song should be in stereo too.

Oh snap... Shad.

I had previously exported a mono track for some external processing and forgot to reset the export parms before doing the full song.

Uploading Now!!! In Stereo!!! 
(all the kids love this new stereo thing)

Now!!!!!!


In Stereo!!!!!!

Now the vocals suck in stereo! Yeah!

It would probably be much better with just an acoustic guitar? Or perhaps someone beating on a box?

I'm sorry for that right there BAPU :-(

I meant it with love?  Or at least, without too much non-love?

Hi Ed

A while back I did a stint with a Johnny Cash tribute band, must've played this song 1000 times....

You have a very refreshing take on it. I liked the pedal steel, did you play it?
The vocals are...unique. And although very different, they fit the interpretation of the song, I think. The whole laid back vibe of it.

Nice work!

I'm sorry, but anyone who enjoyed those vocals? Is a serious *** kisser...

Well, opinions are like ****s, everyone has one and you're entitled to yours. What you think don't mean anything to me.
