Title: Moving On (Mach & Kenny Mac)
Post by: Mach on September 30, 2017, 02:30:41 PM
This is a song I found on my MBR. I had recorded a rough draft and forgotten about it. I used to play something similar to this with a band a long time ago, but it never was really a great cut. Kenny was looking to do a collab and I sent this to him hoping we could get it off the ground. Well about a week and half later here we are with a song we are both very pleased with.

Gary - Rhythm Guitar, Bass, Piano, Drums, Lead Guitar.

Kenny - Vocals, Strings, Piano, Choir, Lead Guitar.

Thanks for your awesome contributions Kenny.

Just fantastic performance, guys!!

I got a bit seventies vibe with today's tones. Sounds a classic to me!

This is so well written and played/sung. Each additions are well in balance.

Bravo!

Seriously great stuff, chaps! Kenny's vocal on this reminds me a little of Roger Daltrey when he sings a ballad. Overall it's got a really bittersweet feel to it. Top notch production fellas! Loved it :)

Thanks for all for the comments.
It was a pleasure working with Mach .
It was a great canvas he had sent me to work on.
All collaborations work in different ways
And people have different approaches.
I was really happy with the guitar lead off at the end
as I thought they sounded well together and I'm always
Worried ill not come up to scratch with other lead guitarist's.
But back to musical collaboration set ups.
Mach made me feel comfortable as we approached each
Part of the song and if you feel comfortable working with someone it makes the process
easier.
So special thanks to him for letting me loose on this. ;D

Great warm feel to this guys. Giving me that lovely 70's rock feel too, when music was at its finest IMO. That guitar interaction is top drawer.

Lovely song chaps, really enjoyed that.

Woah! This is bloody spectacular. Absolute classic sounding 70's awesomeness. It actually sounds like a big hit from the time. I love it! Everything is so warm and gooey and wonderful. Sounds like a pro band at the top of their game, and every little detail shines.

Seriously, fellas - this is magic. A Songcrafters classic.

Thank you Kenny. It was a pleasure working with you on this song. I had completely forgotten about this on the MBR. I switched the MBR drums to Superior drummer and it opened up and made the whole thing change. It was fun doing the back and forth dual leads at the end. Thanks for your help in getting this off the ground.
Thanks for all the wonderful comments SC.

I'm a sucker for rock harmonies and this is top of the list! Just took me away, so very good! Cool soaring guitar interplay too.

Yes, the tune rules!!!
