Fightin' The Fight (feat. DrC on keys)

[Farrell Jackson]

This is an updated version of a song that was originally done for The Bass Fest with just 3 basses, drums and vocals. Some guitars, different drums and keys have been added. Since it has changed the sound some, I thought I'd post it up.

Credits:

DrC - All keyboards, drums programming.

Farrell Jackson - All vocals, 3 basses, G&L Strat, Nashville tuned Telecoustic rhythm guitar, mix and production

[Ray Brookes]

This is a great song. Farrell. Excellent vocal work and first class production. I never heard of a song having like three basses before. What is Nashville tuning? Love that virtuosic keyboard work too.

Thanks Ray and Trevor!

Ray, here's a definition of Nashville tuning; "Nashville or high-strung tuning refers to the practice of replacing the wound E, A, D and G strings on a six-string guitar with lighter gauge strings to allow tuning an octave higher than standard". I keep my Fender Telecoustic guitar strung that way. When strummed or picked along with a standard 6 string it gives the impression of a 12 string guitar. I read somewhere that The Eagles' used this tuning on Hotel California.

Great intro and riff, man! I've not heard this one before. Really cool cuz. Vocals top notch as ever. A bit of wah wah thrown in for good measure on the basswork.

[DarrenG / The Devil's Toupee]

The basses sound great, the melody grabs you from the intro. Nice additions with the other guitars. Great vocals , drums and production.

Wow!  Stunning stuff, mate.  Every part of this is spot on but I especially enjoyed the vocals - the harmonies are stupendous. Fine hammond from the good doctor.

Yeah this is great Farrell. What grabbed me at first was the lyrics. I love the opening few lines and a lot of truth there. It's a great alt/rock sound with loads going on. Great quirky synth, but the the track is very accessible at the same time. Cracking listen.
