Here's my first, long overdue song posting.  

The original track is from 1978.  I added a few synths more recently in Sonar.  I think I did most of it in Sonar 7.  I look forward to and appreciate any comments.  The original recording is stereo using sound-on-sound, so there's not much I can with that anymore.  

The Next Time You Look--Short & To The Point

Thanks for listening,

Thanks a lot, Daryl.  


Some friends loaned me a real set of vibes.  They found them in the basement of a house they bought.  I played them more like you'd play a glockenspiel than vibes.  If the vibes were on a separate track I'd bring them down slightly--especially in one or two spots.  

I'll definitely check out the Kings.

Well at first I didn't like it butI was messin with it and got to really like it. Wow a true old school mix on reel to reel? That's cool. I might add some bass line. There is something hauntingly familiar about the sound...... like I wrote a similar melody when I first started messing with computer music. Interesting...

Is this really your first song posting?  I'd say it's a little overdue too.  :)

What a great start.  What's next?  :)

Thanks.  I thought about adding some bass, but I think I've already done too much processing.  I don't want to process the life out of it.

Thanks, Ed.  


Ya.  I figured I'd better post it before NAMM came around again.

Thanks, Janet.  Yes, first one.  Only 34 years in the making.  I have a bunch tracks from my misspent youth.  I'll try to post some more, as they get them whipped into shape.

No need to rush into things, I always say.  :)
