This is my 2nd tune done on the DP-008. I used my electric uke for all 3 uke parts & I used the zoom ps02 as a mic. I always liked that mic but the presets all had that real bad "s" sibilance thing. Well the Dp-008 has a
de-esser  setting and it works great with the ps02 so I'm pleased with that. The drums are a Yamaha DXT500 kit, I forgot what a real pedals are like. The distortion & phaser on the uke also come from the ps02, glad I held on to that little unit, it makes a great, small effects processor!!!8 tracks, no bouncing all recorded, mixed & mastered on the DP-008.
1 clean uke
1 distorted lead uke
1 phaser uke
1 bass (TJ)
2 vocal tracks
1 drums (stereo)

More Time
written & performed by Hook
I remember days
Days when I remembered more
Always in a haze
Burn a little around the edges

Why we always ask why
And I wonder why we can't take a little more time

Always in a hurry
always seems like there's some place to go
So many roses that I Passed by
So many times I've Never thought to stop and smell

Why we always ask why
And I wonder why we can't take a little more time

And I know the time is the one thing that we can never get back
Every simple second and every fleeting moment disappears into memory hopefully

Directions to the destinations
Calculate the quickest path
Point to point a to B
The scenic route might not be for me

Why we always ask why
And I wonder why we can't take a little more time

I remember days
Days when I remembered more

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

Distorted uke gives a nice contrast on this laid back acoustic song! Loved the feel of your song!

Nice drumming as well!

Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later

Excellent song man, its full, deep and wide.  Great full sound from such a puny little instrument (uke), its got that acid drenched psychedelic crooner feel about this one, that is one of the definitive Hook styles ........

Alternate Tunings: CAUTION: your fingers have to be in different places
