This is a remake of something I did back in 2012 as a co-write with Pat. It was acoustic and you may remember it.... it's still on my SC site somewhere.

This is the new version: http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12048139

Thanks for listening.

Herb.. its still 2012 - Nice work.

Lovely work, Herb! The sitar fits right in.

Its hard to believe that anyone would go way back to 2012 to dig up an old song to rework though. 😄

 all the way back from 2012?  you must be Back From the Future!

nice job on this Herb!

Yeah.... thanks Shad Scotty & Reece for pointing out the time continuum issue... 

It was actually written in 2011 recorded then, and I also redid a re-written version in 2012 early in the year which I don't think I posted.... it was a few word changes for my co-writer Pat, on this song.  So this is actually version #3 of the song. 

The song originally was just some acoustic guitar and a synth bass.  On my ride up to Virginia a few days ago, I was listening to my MP3 player and the original of this came up in the play list and I decided to rework it with more of a band...and in a lower key than the original. One whole step down. 

This song was a monthly song contest winner with the Houston Songwriter's Group. (version #2) Come & Go also won the same contest and both of those songs are on the compilation CD of the monthly winners for 2012. 

It's one of my favorite song writing projects so far. 

Thanks for listening.

brilliant Herb - love that organ bubbling away in the background - really subtle

Daryl... thanks for listening. On this song, the mix was kinda fast... I really didn't do much with the piano and B3 except set the level low and let it roll for most of the song.... I did envelope them up in a few places for accents and the B3 climbs into the choruses and especially towards the end. 

Thanks for noticing that. 

Another nice song Herb.
Nice sounding recording all round too.
I thought the subtle harmony vox worked really well.

Wildman.... thanks.... there are 5 vocal tracks total 

Main vocal is pitch corrected with melodyne and riding about 3db down. 

I also have 2 lead vocals recorded individually.... not cloned.... stereo spread at about 75% and about 20db down.... very subtle layering they are all the way through.  not pitch corrected.  solo the vocal bus and you can hear them... throw them in the mix and they become a subtle thickener..... not very obvious. 

2 harmony tracks not pitch corrected, stereo spread is about 50% and down approx 10db.

I played around with vocal techniques for some time before "discovering" this technique and really like the result it gives. 

thanks for listening. 

Well done, Herb.  2012 will be remembered as the golden age of music.
