Hey guys, it feels really good to finish this one. Been working on it the last few days. Ukes, drums, bass & low vocal were done in the car. High vocal & lead guitar were done at the kitchen table. Drums are garageband, the uke is my Epiphone LesPaul  concert, the lead guitar is my electric Traveler Escape EQ-1, bass is my Haydeen U_bass (solid body) & the mic was a Sure Beta 58 all direct into the BR80.
1 distorted rhythm uke (stereo)
1 chorus uke (stereo)
1 drums (stereo)
1 extremely distorted U-Bass (stereo)
1 Rotary effected lead guitar(stereo)
1 low vocal (stereo)
1 high vocal (stereo)
A Tidy Little Mess
written & performed by Hook
Where am I
Do I even exist
Is this a mirror image
Of a mirror image
Where the pain just persists

     Subtle changes
     Extreme consequence
     Contradictions Contradicting contradictions
     A tidy little mess

Forever in the middle
a conspiracy
Directors misdirecting misdirection
And disbelieving disbelief

A jump of sorts
Not fully understood
A perception of
Deceptions conception
That fools all that is good

Because the Hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely

That's a tidy little psych-funk groove you've got going there, Mr. Hook. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Funk on!

Nice to hear that you've got your mojo back!

I like that distorted rhythm uke and rotary lead guitar, works well together! I put headphones on and found; this is so well mixed and produced.

Very Hookastic song- rock on!!

Well done on this one Hook. That's a great little Uke / Guitar riff, really cool. And the high vocal is a great addition. Very weird and wonderful.
