Recorded with my friend Darren Tipper, who lives in England and bounced this back and forth with me for awhile last year via the BandLab mobile app. I did the drum loop, lap steel, bass, banjo and vocal. Darren did the mandolin and organ.

This is cool with an occasional nod to a reggae beat. Your bass parts are very pronounced and on the spot and the reggae beat has returned.... Police!

A sense of Roxy Music in this and for a home recording has a very nice present feel Ben. Congratulations on new work after a year long, it happens, sometimes as in my case with another muse coming to surface. I'm glad you returned! Thanks too for your recent listen to my ukulele piece and the kind words.

Hi Ben! Thanks so much for listening to my music and the thoughtful and kind comments on my music. And it allowed me to discover yours! I like the dramatic sound to the guitars on this track. It should be a action movie soundtrack. Excellent lyrics too!

I’m a middle-aged guy with dark blue-green skin and I live in rural Missouri outside of St. Louis.

I play guitar, bass, lap steel and am learning guitarrón. Since 2020 I’ve been exploring collaborative long-distance recording with a few online friends.
