Description this is an old record which was recorded on tape about ten years ago. I wrote the song myself but admit to not being able to resist incorporating the riff from Yes' -Siberian Khatru - right at the end. It was recorded here at my home on an old four track machine, if fact a portastudio. It is about relationships in general and the control you lose by being in them. I have disabled ratings because of the thingy.

Well-written song.

John!
This sounds really great for a portastudio! Like very little hiss!

The song has great guitar/epiano work left and right that work well in the head!

As usual this is a great sound, great lead, great song! Really nicely done!

woofer3 said 128 days ago
it was done on a
Tascam424 I think - though I imagine I used an Atari somewhere along the line to sequence it. I remember being quite pleased with it at the time.

Thank you again Mark for your encouraging words.

Cracking song John
Really motors along and there is some very fine playing here.

Love all the synth sounds you've used and how they function as other percussion instruments.

Cheers

I suppose this was a bit of a jam as well as a song, I'm glad you liked it.

I live in a world of vinyl...ever since I was thirteen and held a copy of Jerry Lee Lewis' Great Balls of Fire on an English black and silver London -[ which I still have not more than three foot from me now ] Thank you my friend for listening to this little rocker and for your luvllee words.

fly agaric
rock on. Nice piece of music with some unexpected twists, you cross paths with your music and style. Great playing and interesting phasing and structure.

woofer3 said 128 days ago
yes - the fly agaric-
also known as the Amanita Mascaria - a gorgeous magic mushroom. I drew this last week while I was in Majorca. My first attempt at drawing.

Thank you for your comments and for listening,

John

Rebsie said 129 days ago
Fabulous
I love the vocal! And the authentic analogue sound. And the keyboard wigout. Just delightful in every way, and I mean that.

A very compulsive little rocker. Love it.

woofer3 said 128 days ago
Hello Rebsie

I'm glad you like this piece.

John

lengold said 128 days ago

great funky piano John. Another very well written and blissfully catchy tune.
Cheers

Hello Loenardo-
How you? thanks a lot for taking the time to visit my little page here. Thanks for the kind words as well.

John

guygrooves said 128 days ago
Great tune John
It's always worth a visit when I get the notice that you have posted a new one. I still own a tascam porta studio although its about worn out. I also have a fostex as well. Those old 4 tracks could be pretty decent recording devices, once you figured out their limitations. This is a very enjoyable tune. Well written, played, sang, and recorded as always. Thanks for sharing.
Peace
Guy

Mama cut the line-
thank you Guy, I only found this a couple of years ago and decided to put it on icomp. I remember being quite surprised at the sound.
Thank you- I'm glad you like it, also I appreciate your comments.

dont you love the good old day how about 2 track live. I really enjoyed this . LOve the guitar part kind of rolls like hot tuna in a way. Some cool keys in this almost progressive in some parts. I see what you mean by the yes at the end. Very cool song!

woofer3 said 125 days ago
I'm glad you like it
thanks for listening and commenting.

regulus said 128 days ago
This is a keeper!
Like this a lot. Great accents and a distinctly professional quality. There are getting to be so many really great and talented artists here. Your one of them.

woofer3 said 125 days ago
thank you Regulas
good to see you here. I have listened to some of your stuff but have never had time to comment on it - however, guess where I'm going now ?

John.

helenmorris said 125 days ago

Great Song
But what else is new from the Woofer? I loved the organ sound and playing near the end, but then everything was done well.

Great song and great sound.

woofer3 said 120 days ago
hi Tim
thank you, I think most of the sounds on this came from a Roland sound canvas. not a bad sound even though very basic.

John.
