Description Here is my LSP submission. I really got lost working on this and when I was done it didn't sound much like the album or band that inspired it. This is a remix, I will save the other for a rainy day. Its actually a hybrid lost song that belongs a little to an early album and a late album by the same group. The later album is the one that is missing a fun little instrumental piece, the earlier album is almost all instrumental.

Imitation
Imitation is not as easy for me as it may sound. Hope I didn't muddle up the sound too much.

bud said 405 days ago
I'm intrigued -
the band has an early album that is almost all instrumental - which means their later work has lots of vocals. Doesn't fit the profile of a fusion band that this sounds a little like. I'm gonna think on this some more before I commit. Groovy tune though - lost or not.

Beach Side
hey !! what groovey moog sound here .all the keyboards
just cool .love this reminds me of some mike old or
Alan parson projects with more funk beat.great job !!

DWL said 405 days ago
Flummoxed - good word
Like Steve I have no idea.

I'm not good at this game am I ?

But like all the other LS I've heard it works very well in its own right.

Cheers

Dick

michael2 said 405 days ago
man
you got me. i don't really know much about this genre (obviously). sounds awesome though, loving those keyboard parts (sooo moogy).

guitapick said 405 days ago
Well...
...could be George Duke or early electronic Herbie Hancock (Watermelon Man)...

...or The Crusaders minus guitar/sax...

I'm hearing the first two guesses, though...

Whatever it is, it is very, very cooooool....

Like Feter...
...closest I can match this is with the Alan Parsons Project. Really nice groovin herein Bill. Funkadelic!

Be well!

Vic Holman said 405 days ago
it sounds slightly familiar
along the lines of bands like weather report. but it has been so long that i can't be sure. I know I'm going to slap my forward hard when you announce it.

Nice piece Bill

psexnyc said 405 days ago
This LSP...
....this song should have been on a Jan Hammer album!!! Right? Tell me I'm right!!

Ibstrat said 405 days ago
This
is a guess based more on your clue than the music.The Meters? Great sounding funky track.

paul f. page said 405 days ago
Just...
...groovy! I don't know much about popular groups or bands as this has not been much of my interest over the years, but I do know when I hear a number that catches my interest because of a clever beat, a mellow orchestration, and a generally cool feel to it. This song fits that bill nicely, Bill, and I am glad you posted it. It stands up just by itself, in my book. Forget the comparisons. ... My one wish is that you'd have let the song continue maybe 15 seconds longer with a gentle fade. ..Nevertheless, I really like this number.
Peace.
Paul

woa
jan hammer...maybe...none the less is a true groove tune

Rebsie said 405 days ago
Er ...
I must admit I have no idea! Will have to wait for the grand revelation.

peacepiano said 405 days ago
Hi All
Interesting guesses. The band in question is not a jazz group, although I can see the comparison to Jan Hammer (my original mix does sound like a lost song from him). I won't apologize for the beat, this band dabbled in a lot of beats. I will say that they probably would not have employed a shimmering flute voice :)

Off to visit my mother and then to listen to more lost songs.



ageofthedeathtree said 405 days ago
we'd have to say...
herbie hancock, definitely...but a lil less funky. not that's bad, great track nonetheless. great work!

sons of hypnos (yep, both of us!)

SmokeyVW said 404 days ago
Jan Hammer?
Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer come to mind. i'm not sure though... there's clearly no guitar here.

nice tune - you got some pretty nice analog synth sounds going on here

thanks

spitlogic said 404 days ago
good playing
Nice mix of the different instruments. Great production.

Mystified said 404 days ago
a very sophisticated groove here...
...fantastic playing.

Weather Report comes to mind, but (as I've said on 90% of these LSP songs) I just don't have the popular music knowledge to even make an educated guess.

I do know that I like it! :)
Thanks for sharing!

rjamadeus said 404 days ago
sounds nice
maybe traffic ????

Doug Somers said 404 days ago
You've ruled out jazz groups
so Herbie H is not in the running - would have been my guess. Regardless, this is a fun tune and certainly stands solidly on its own. Thanks!
Doug

Diviner said 403 days ago
Not a clue
Although it is a brilliant composition, I love the organ and floating flute. My wife who is helping me with all this says it sounds a bit like Camel or Renaissance.
Very cool track.

peacepiano said 398 days ago
Diviner
I really like Renaissance, next time we do lost songs I will try to resurrect one of theirs. How many people do you think have hear them?

Thanks.

Diviner said 403 days ago
Emerson, Lake and Palmer
my wife thinks it could be the above group. She likes this track so it must be good.

said 403 days ago
Quite A Groove
...but I can't begin to guess who the lost artist is. Love the synth runs! Was the water sound at the end a clue?

peacepiano said 403 days ago
Rik
The Title is a clue. This was probably their least successful album. Maybe if this song was on it would have done better :)

Peter Bauckham said 403 days ago
OK
I'm going with ELP - My brother used to play their early records all the time - I think, except for the Greg Lake songs, they were mostly keyboard led instrumentals - this sounds more jazzy they I remember them though... Don't really know any of their records past Brain Salad Surgery or Works...

Peter

peacepiano said 403 days ago
Peter
Getting pretty close :)

Peter Bauckham said 403 days ago
Well in that case
it must be Love Beach...

All the best
Peter

Karmatoburn said 400 days ago
luv it
great playin and kudo's on the choice of sounds. the organ and retro synths were cool sounding. organic ending!

peacepiano said 400 days ago
KTB
Good to hear from you. I struggled with the instrument choices. I have a different take on the tune coming out this weekend.

perceptualvortex said 399 days ago
Ok
I'm finally ready to guess that it's ELP from Tarkus, though I'm not so sure it sounds proggy enough for that. Anyway, excellent playing, this sounds great.
