Hi everyone, hope all is good in here and you fine folk are coping with Covid and keeping safe. Thought I would share a few things I have been working on in lockdown.

This is a Blues Rock Soul duet I put together with a female singer I have been working with. We had great fun recording it and hope you like :)

Friday

You fall into my arms and you say
'Don't think that I'm in love
If I call you again.
Sorry if you hadn't a clue
Head to the back of the queue'
You got nothing more to say?

I die with every word when you say
'I won't think that you're in love
If you call me again.
It's just some crazy fun
Don't think we got it going on'
You got nothing more to say?

You call and come around
Fall into my arms
Telling another tale 
We come to the end of the night
I think we're through
But you keep coming around
Friday
I know I'll see you there
'Til Friday comes around

I finally got to hear this on my home computer playing through my brand new JBL 5 inch powered reference monitors...it is excellent imo...and it actually reminds me of a modern Greatful Dead feel....big sound and really nice structure and the voacals are really fine....plus the theme is superb of course

Very nice indeed, excellent arrangement and superb production. Really liked the dual vocals and harmonies, they sound great and the voices work really well together.

@redler thankyou really pleased you like :)
@stephenm wow thanks so much for that compliment, great speakers! I really need to get some decent monitors next year
@ferryman thankyou we both had a ball recording this, really appreciate your kind words

Greeny

This is damn good stuff. Brilliant energy and style. I love the shifting dynamics of the song parts, and the dual vocal works so well. Kind of gives me a Style Council / Deacon Blue vibe. Top quality pop!

@Greeny Hey man thanks for the compliment! been enjoying trying some different blends lately to try and stretch my writing. Love your stuff btw! :D

Johnny McAleer
