This is me and Mike - it's called CABO.
 
 
 

And - yes, I wrote my first tune when I was 49 - a slow starter I guess.

Hey buddy!!  This is a different one from you.  It sounds like a Fellini - spaghetti western -- produced by Zappa.  You really have blended together a bunch of interesting sounds which (at least for me) develop a ominous and building emotion to the song.  The vocals really add a feeling of desperation to this number.  As usual I have to admire your phrasing and touch on the guitar work.  This is my 3rd listen and each time I like it more.
Very cool song indeed!!!

I have to agree with Freddy.  I really like this in a Bohemian way.  I think it's very original and clever, especially for your first recording.  Which version of Sonar did you use on this?  I know that Sonar was getting pretty sophisticated by 2002.

Hi Freddy - good to see you - hi Lynn.

When I did this I was only partially using using Cakewalk. At that time I was primarily using a Roland VS1680 which I had synced to Cakewalk 8 - that was before Sonar. I think what I did was to record the main audio tracks on the 1680 and did the drums using Cakewalk.

Thanks for taking a listen.

VVVM is alive!

I like the tamborine :-) The song is "interesting..." Difficult to classify? Which is not necessarily a bad thing. Is that a snare drum, or a .44 magnum? I like the bass too.

what Freddie said... and some...

  Really interesting tune Mark. I really enjoyed the subtle noodling, the vocals kind of reminded me of the Stones in the 70's. Funky and enjoyable.

Different, kinda grows.  Thanks for sharing
