Ride Until You Die

Hi gang.
The Proods are back….Brian at the helm this time.
Our methodology is thus….one of the 4 of us introduce a song, and then we’ll bang out a finished track in under an hour with as few over-dubs as possible. This one we put some effort into, doing multiple takes, and I think it shows.
We each sing our own songs, so here’s Brian….the LEAST likely guy I know to write a BIKER SONG!

-lyrics

The desolation highway sings it’s lonesome goodbye
And that’s the way this give and take throws you to the side

Ride until you die to tell you roll along and see, yes
Ride until you die to tell
Ride along with me

And on the road we’re halfway home
Tonight we’d better stop
Rest up in the mountains talk it over at the top

Ride until you die to tell you roll along and see, yes
Ride until we die to tell
Ride along with me

‘Cause the way you look here tonight
In this lone campfire light
That’s the way that it always aught to be

Ride until you die to tell you roll along and see
Ride until you die to tell
Ride along with me

The faith-brigades all turned to stone
well, suppose we should pray
though this might mean that better days
are ahead for you and me

Ride until you die to tell you roll along and see, yeah
Ride until you die to tell
Ride along with me
Ride until you die to tell you roll along and see, yeah
Ride until you die to tell
Ride along with me

Song by Brian Rodman and the wondrous Proods

Agree with jimgoodinmusic... Byrds tone sneaks out on the guitar and percussion. Would love to find out who all of your influences are for the band. In response to your hopefully slightly tongue-in-cheek comment about drum clarity to TonyCee... I always found letting the mics mug the kit like 3" away from everything and then an aggressive high pass filter got everything as clear as possible without muddle. That's exactly what professionals don't do... :D Anyway, great as always.
