Here's a last minute entry, been working on this the last few days. Spent most of this morning working out the sax parts with my EWI. Drums are live, me on my cocktail kit . The U-bass is my Haydeen and the Ukulele is my Kala Tenor Archtop.
1 effected uke (stereo)
1 clean uke
1 drums (stereo)
1 U-bass
1 vocal (stereo)
5 EWI (sax
A Dreamy Little Blues
written & performed by Hook
I got a dreamy Little Blues
I got a Dreamy a Little Blues
A list of things i never got to do
And an even longer list of things I didn't want to go through
I got a special kinda pain
I got a special kinda pain
It's a slow burn of my heart
But it creates such a beautiful blue flame
I got a silly bit of sadness
I got a silly bit of sadness
It haunts me like a spectre
It's an unrelenting pain
That I wish I didn't have to go through
I got a Dreamy a Little Blues
A list of things i never got to do
And an even longer list of things I didn't want to go through
I got a special kinda pain
I got a special kinda pain
It's a slow burn of my heart
But it creates such a beautiful blue flame
I got a silly bit of sadness
I got a silly bit of sadness
It haunts me like a spectre
It's an unrelenting pain
That I wish I didn't have to go through

Really enjoyed this one Hook. A very clever treatment of the vocals to fit the lyrics perfectly, and the EWI is very cool indeed. I really liked the lyrics as well. Very nice job!

Yeah... lovely Hook. You got the blues man. This is very cool, it really swings and all those sax parts are great. This belongs in a cool jazz and blues bar along with a nice cold beer and whiskey chaser!

Ah! This is so wonderful! You really got to skill to use EWI (whatever it is) Sounds so real! By the way, do anyone remember tune named
"I just love the sound of saxophone" I cant find it from internet. I heard it years ago from the radio.
