WOW.... this is so sweet dude. Mark you got your muze back in a big way bro.  Glad I could be a part of it. This is sooo damn cool. Ken... you are a friggin genious bro. Every track you've been a part of has been a real piece of art... this is no exception. Both of you dudes rock.

Holy moly gents!!

Stunning groove here! I'm so happy, when I hear new music from you Mark!

I've lost my words, but just amazing job again on guitars, Ken!

Rata's drum tracks have given nice kick to this site! Bravo Tod!

You sure do know how to create a cool tune Mark ! Thanks for letting me add my little bits to it.
Love those lyrics too, gave me a smile! :D
I'll see if I can do a mix for you where the effects are not so loud.
Tod, the drum track is the coolest I have heard in a while, it's perfect for that tune. It's great to have real drums, just all around better, so thanks for that.
Keep shuffling dudes!

I an't quite place it, but it strikes me like something Spirit would've done maybe. Regardless, this song is firmly entrenched in the days of my youth. Loved this  alot, and I appreciate some of the oddball sounds peppered throughout.

Sounds like Ozzie meets satriani.
Excellent playing guys,but how can you not be fueled by the enthusiastic excellent drumming of Tod?
You realy have blasted this site into a new direction mate,keep those drums coming.
Well done to all.

Yeah, great collab guys. It has a very unique sound. A healthy dose of Zappa with a dash of America and some great riffing. Great work y'all.

Another bump... cause it's the coolest tune. One of those tracks that sticks in yer head... once it gets in there ...it bounces around like one of them super bouncy rubber balls you used to throw down the street as a kid... you wanna catch it...but you can't cause that crazy fuckin ball has a mind of its own. Then you have to retrieve the ball from old lady Parksons back yard... cause that crazy fuckin ball hopped over a fenc....she's got 2 German Shepherds ready to tear you limb from limb. Then you realize it's just a ball... yep... I think that sums it up pretty good.

First off... I love the vocals...they remind me of Randy Bachman, Steve Miller, and James Young all mixed into one (and a hint of Ozzy too)///// anyway whoever sang this...crazy good stuff....
and the music sounds really good...but....for me...it's just too short.... but I loved what i heard... and yes...the drums are fannytastical

Sweet chili! I just went thru your playlist and what songs! What does it take to launch you back into doing songs here again?

Such a wealth of bangers! I have to stop listening to your songs otherwise i might stray on my path of going synth(y).
Title: Re: Groovy Boots (Original by Kenneth, Rata-tat-tat & Launched)
Post by: StephenM on January 01, 2023, 06:16:51 AM
yeah, I remember this now... I still love the drums vs the vocals... it is like a goalie against a penalty kicker one on one, or a hockey player on a breakaway against the goalie...

both are exceptional against that crushing barrage of guitars... then that weird but very cool guitar weirdness... and that swirly...

I don't know, right now I am enjoying the current lineup! You guys are all making badass stuff, stay synthy or whatever you want to do!

Quote from: StephenM on January 01, 2023, 06:16:51 AM... and that swirly...

I know right, a happenstance. That was three people who did that, would not have happened without the combination. Oh, and a nice little tidbit, that was a uke that Hook gifted me years ago, it has a mic built in it so I could plug it in.
