Here's another little ditty from Short & To The Point:  Reprise

Again, this was recorded in 1979 on a stereo analog tape recorder.  Comments are welcome, but I don't think there is much I can do with it at this point.  Thanks for listening.

I enjoyed hearing this song. There is kind of a nostalgic feel to this song that brings back memories.

nice one Jan - I agree with Marcus - it has the feel of a sixties protest song.

Thanks guys.  This one and the other songs I'll be posting aren't quite that old--but close to it.

Jan - I didn't mean the sixties thing was a bad thing - it's cool mate

This is very well recorded and quite noise free for an old analog tape.  Did you use noise reduction?  I look forward to hearing the next offering.

I didn't take it as a bad thing, Daryl.  The song was written around 1978.  It's been around for a while.  Protest songs were probably an influence back then.

Thanks Lynn.  It's been a while since I did the transfer to digital and the mastering.  I have BIAS' Sound Soap and may have used it, but I don't remember if I had it then and I don't specifically remember using it on this project.  It was a roundabout process because the tapes and the old Grundig reel-to-reel are back in New Jersey.  I transferred from analog to ADAT and ADAT to the hard drive.  I had to use what was available.

Love the folk vibe.  Jan, do you remember what mic you used on the vocal.  KUDOS!
