Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…

Dang, everyone except Rob (and Laura) (and me) liked the previous version! (Cupid's Own Knife)
Only i did this with the lyrics so maybe one can be a bonus track ...
aargghh ... why didn't i write a *different* song?
Anyone read Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr - my daughter lent it to me - teenage Faery novel about addiction - pretty creepy at times.
This is the one act musical version.
I wanted a 'deranged in our neighbourhood' kind of feel to it.

4 queens to run for cover
forever missing mothers

Timely, mellow, and fun. Have a great Paddy's Day, Greg.
(AND this drives us nuts. You can shorten Patrick to Pat, but Patty is a girl's name here, so it's St Patrick's Day or Paddy's Day.)

RPM 2024 track 7
A good friend of mine has a Samoyed. This is a song about him.
I was hoping for a kiiind of Cheap Suit Serenaders feel. Acoustic guitar, a 1920s tenor banjo and a brand new mandolin.
When I was small I wanted to be a girl and I didn't even know that was possible! Imagine if I grew up 30 years later - perhaps I would have had a very different life.
Written and recorded for Record Production Month February 2024 for my 10-track…

i was alone for a time
when the rabbits start to run the rings around my eyes

she's got a confident way of talking

her fashion sense is never shocking
but it says "she's a boss"
it says "she's on top"

Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Very nice, this one.
i love this one - classic gumbo - you have a great sense for lyrics and melody
its 8am here in new hampshire, and i'm ready to party...
Sounds a real mix of Irish and country, foot tapping delightfulness! Do do do dododododo, Yay!
Ah, the mandolin? And I like the way the other voices join in.
Jess and I really like your album!
Awesome, singing is a little bit off mark, but i love it all the same.
These songs are all excellent this year. Great stuff.
Just listened to the entire album. Great work once again this year.
Love the lyrics and chorus, Gumbo, your delivery is superb.
No, I'm staying here and listening to this catchy little tune. Foot tapping splendour.
Oh, so fine indeed!
Hey Gumbo, pleased to hear yer still on top form. Lovely little tune this.
Great fun man! At least she didn't stick your toothbrush in the turpentine!
ARe any of us in our right mind?! Great vocals and tune!
I prefer this 'un (and I love t'other version too). Awright.
Well, I feel gooood.
I've enjoyed both versions of this song, but I think I prefer this one. Nice.
Whooo, party! Great fun, great track.
My foot is tapping big time. Fun lyrics, love the chorus.

Good solid album, and this is a cracking track!
This just came up on the Newfoundland Party feed. So catchy. Good job folks.

Thanks for listening, Sister. It means a lot to be back and have you hear it. Yes! Here's to next year!
Curiously, I can hear Dean having a go at this. Not the orchestra, I can't do orchestras in my head, but Deano? Yes indeed!
Leafy walkways, cappucino, and a need to send flowers is exactly the feel I was going for!!
I'm so relieved that it's recognisably a tango :-D
Marz, we were chatting about the pros and cons of including drums and I said I would include at least one this time around. This is it!
Ha! Opener? This one nearly didn't get included for being 'different'. :-D Shows you how much I know!
Thanks folks. What does 'quirky' mean these days?? Do I really want to know? To me it is high praise!
Yep it does help to be able to picture a samoyed running about ;-)
Good morning! it's a drizzly day here and this is perfect for dancing around the kitchen while the kettle boils 💖
Nice guitar crisp guitar. Is this the harmony again?
What a cool reggae vibe. Sharp!
Nice. I like this guitar!
This is great, Mikey. Nice heavy groove, catchy melody. This and Midnight are the standout tracks.
Ha! Yes. My voice was shot on this one but I wanted the character to sound old so it felt appropriate :D Thanks for listening
This is great. Do you all have a version posted?
Lovin' this one too. I'm glad your alt sensibilities were unsuppressible!
Yes! This!!
