Fire In The Night
iconoclast
Well, the truth is I run a little hot. I think maybe all artists do. Creative fire is creative fire. Sorry about the vocals here, this is the scratch track, didn’t have time to lay down the real thing before the clock struck twelve and I turned back into a lowly pumpkin, and it’ll likely be a awhile before I can say for it real. But, it works.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the vocals on this one, spot on I would say. I love your voice. It's a combination of Tom Waits and David Bowie - and what feels like years spent paying your dues. I'm a fan.
Thanks for the comments on this. It's funny, but the first tracks I put on here (Evolution, Fire In the night, Walk Down A Long Road) Were tracks I never released, or went any further with. I more than liked them myself, but the feedback I'd gotten from other writers was: too simple; not enough parts (verse, chorus, bridge), and of course, I AM am iconoclast, I give a flying fart about the "rules of writing" I kept them as they were. It is very gratifying to have other people get these. I wanted these songs to be the lyrics, wedded to the msuic, not served up on it like roasted turkeys. I am by nature a minimalist. I don't like clutter. I'm learning to create and produce songs in the studio that do have more to them. But to me they still have to be about the emotion, to advance the evoking of that emotion, or they're just ego stroking for the musically inclined. Again, my deepest thanks, and humble appreciation.
Great guitars!
