It’s in the battle 2007-12


due to the overwhelming amount of doomsday posts going on lately, and the incredible amount of bomb shelters being built, I thought I would bring a little calm to the storm.. and bring you this little bluesy concoction.. I hope you enjoy it..

THe site is goin buggy, and there aint no escape..

Well, I am here to tell you as a site admin,
That bandamp is as strong as it's ever been..

Well, It's Bandamp, THe site of all sites, oh yeah it's Bandamp
it's all alright... oh yeah, the code is still okay and bandamp's here to stay..

No room to shelter in a bomb...
A nice arrangement! Just one pianist, right? I would have really enjoyed a piano instrumental or a little action on the guitar during the breaks. No suggestions on the lyrics but I do appreciate the lack of existential doom. Sweet.

wow..
Well, I am overwhelmed..  Yeah, it is me on the vocals, and as for the break, being a bit empty, I was leaving it open hoping someone would wish to collaborate a bit.. So, yes, please Marino, toss some guitar in that!

 I just thought it would make ya'll smile a bit, kinda bring some cheer back to this place!  We are runnin good and strong, and some of the members are coming back from their holiday/vacation whatever you want to call it. And as the weather turns colder, we will see even more traffic. It is the summer slowness as I call it. It's not a big deal.. Every year though at this time, talk of Bandamp's demise comes and goes..  We will be just fine..  smile and have another lemonade..

MAN
you've got some cool harmonica going on there. I'm a big fan of this sort of blues, but you don't hear it enough these days.  What key is it in? I'm not an expert on music theory.
I've been doodling around on a C harmonica (the only one I've currently got) just this morning and I can't make it sound anything near as cool as you do. NO matter how I hold it in my hands or try to bend it or much air I put through, I always get the same lame old sounds.....

The feel is awesome.  I LOVE the vocals---I had no idea you could sing like this.  The levels on the track are way off though.  The harmonica (I'm LOVING that people are incorporating harps into tracks now) is good, but try to work around notes and not chords.  You've got the control, and now apply it to working with melodies where you can showcase your brilliant vibrato and bends.  Also, it may be the way you recorded it, but it sounds like your cup isn't tight or deep enough.
