this is funky..  i really like this track

Very funky and rock-like as well. Cool.  Does remind me of the early 80's.

Awesome mix , love the guitar creativity , this track has a super cool vibe🙌👏

Great electro funk, inspiring... I'm going to open my DAW right away!

Nice depth bass sound and magical Ambience. SoundScape Special😊

I always like to tell a story in a song, and this one tells a tale of misfortune, starting out looking like fate, while ending up as a tale of woe that is all fun in the telling. I started the tune, created the framework, and set the stage in Verse 1 and chorus and passed it off to Keith for him to continue to take the tune in any direction he wanted...and...well...darned if he didn't go and do just that...beep!   ;)

Lyrics:
 You Baby You

V1.  The time had come for me to leave, I grabbed my jacket and my cap
I slid my glass along the bar and I slipped out in the back
I didn’t see the car approach as I stepped out from the curb …ow -owowow!
I didn’t see it was you baby, you baby, you baby, it was you behind the wheel
You baby, you baby, you baby, you baby…you behind that wheel
I’ll never forget, the look in your eyes glancing at me as I flew over the hood
Your rag-top down, I ended up in the back seat upside-down
Ya only get one shot to make it right, Can I get ya number here tonight?
It was you baby, you baby, you baby…you for me

V2. Well three years later and it’s a pretty romance
She stood on my toes, but she taught me to dance
Every damn morning, well, a she burning my toast
But she is quite a good looker, so I don’t like to boast
My Mama say “She was never fair maid…
“Nothing comes cheap when you gotta pay”
She said: “Nothing is cheap, if you gotta pay!”
I thought she was crazy, clumsy and cheap
But so damn pretty that she makes me go… Beep! 
I’m telling you baby, you baby, you baby, you baby, yeah…you and me
I’m telling you baby, you baby, you baby, yeah…you and me
Ya just get one shot at this life…So pull out  ya finger and make it count
You baby, you baby, you baby…You and me

V3. So… this is where it ended, all my life in disarray …old timer
I thought I’d gotten away with it, but boy did she make me pay
She said one day she a come back, when all her cash runs out
But now I gotten my trailer I can’t put up with my back put out
I thought she was crazy, clumsy and cheap
But so damn pretty she can still make me go… beep!
Argh…no, no, no!
You baby, you baby, you baby, you baby, yeah…you and me
You baby, you baby, you baby, you baby, yeah…you and me
The animals went in two by two, I guess we done it too
Ooooh you baby, you baby, you baby, you baby, yeah…you and me
We just get one shot at this life…So pull out ya finger and make it count
You baby, you baby, you baby…You and me…ho-ho!

Farewell To Planet Earth

This is a re-imagining/redux of an original song written way back in 1985. It was a signature song for an LA band I was in at the time called The Program. Originally written as a straight ahead rock tune, the funky and catchy bass pattern was the central component of the song. This new arrangement and recording maintains that original bass pattern and vibe, but definitely takes the tune into completely new realms! Enjoy!

Aside from musical satisfaction and $$$ - the motivations for artists to keeping going can be an addiction to the love from the audience.

SCREAMING AND THROWING UNDIES

Take my time with plug-ins
Connection satisfaction
Waving arms like a summons
Pointy introductions
And soon I’m ridin’ minor sevenths
Endorphins in my canal
I’m like a godly presence
As music funks it’s way around

But the pessimist inside – says shoot me your lovin’ arrows
Cause the deficit is – oh - the needing of something so shallow
Gimme screaming and throwing undies (love me love me love me)
Gimme screaming and throwing undies

Career or labour of love
Try and define it
Eyeing up those at the front
Is anyone buyin’ it
I’m phrasing out the words I wrote
Looking for misty eyes 
Reaching for a soulful note
Into clover wrap me tight 

Nature’s opium ride
Musicality
Bathing up here in spotlight
Dopamine alchemy                             Yeah I’m riding . . .
