Hey Rich,

this is a very fun tune, and the chorus is a classic dude, ha ha.
Cool rocking song, the sound is very muddy and the
recording quality ain't great, but I am digging the song.
Rock on ...

Cheers

The lesser qualities stem from dragging it off an old tape and swinging the
gate on it pretty heavily. GB apparently dissagrees with tapeing directly in
with a cut back of 20% in the tone and velocity form the original. So the
option in being able to share this was using adacity after the initial transfer
using a formac tvr, A/D, D/A converter . But it still rocks and has a close to
near original quality to it. Glad you enjoyed it.. An say, thanks for the
comment amigo.

Well I listened up and checked it out. I believe that to where there may be a
prob. is that I recorded this right on the line of to much energy and you had
your volume up a little frazzeling the diaphram of your head set. I like to
dazzle my auto cortex as well but alass the dbs for most equiptment may not
be able to handle where this is at. Just turn back the volume a wee little, save
your ear balls some, and enjoy the fidelity. It does rock though ............ chao

Good tune
Just wondering if you considered a slightly different second line in the
chorus. It's fine the way it is and all but if you wanted to vary the
repetition of custodian, there are plenty of words that would rhyme
with the way you pronounce it here, ie run, gun, fun, sun, ton,
antedeluvian etc.

Good tune
Thanks for checking out my little song. One of the articles read had made an
issue of using the title word in the song and it had pointed out that a great
deal of sucessful songs have a predonderence of redundancy. Hot Stuff, had
to have used it at least 60+ times in the song. This was a co-written song
with a janitor friend of mine and the only line that Bob Straton has in this was
that chours. I'll have some other tunes up over this coming century along
this genre. Stay tuned......... later

Seriously classic
rock style and feel. Damn- sounds a lot like what I was listening to in the
80's. I read your technical explanation for the muddy sound and said
"huh". The over-riding factor is that this is a totally kickass rock and roll
song! Rock on!

regulus said 1158 days ago
Seriously classic
To me that's the bottom line. Stright on rock, light side of heavy on this one
but it moves and I had lots of fun with it then in that generation. Thanks a
mill for checken in and taking the time to drop a line. I have been enjoying
your work as well. You do the rock thing too. I have some others coming up
soon as soon as I can figure out the best modis operandus for the conversion.

Thanks for the expert analysis on what is with this thing. Do be rocken onb
amigo ....

I don't want to be your custodian
This song is perfect for the custodian at my school! And the kids love the great guitar playing! Can I please get a copy of the lyrics? Thanks

woofer3 said 89 days ago
you now have
four songs in my top five - all downoaded. Excellent track yet again.

I also felt that the sound could have been sharpened just a touch and the vocals up a tad, but that's small price to pay. Great stuff.

John.
