Title: If I Could Take Back Every Stupid Thing (New Mix)
Post by: Peadar 'Big Dinner' O'Driscoll on August 13, 2017, 09:59:54 PM
Finished this yesterday. This is my attempt at writing and recording a motown inspired/type song.

Edit: new mix (more bass, drums, guitar chopping)

I'd say you succeeded too! It has a Motowny feel without being derivative----no mean feat.

Some lovely chord changes in there. That syncopated passage with timps is pretty cool too...

Thanks John. Good fun to do a project like this. Bit like writing a song for someone else I guess.
