go to the above link and play it once a day per IP address.

this song is an "orphan" of mine.

it never appeared on any of my albums.

recorded in 1988 i think. i was in full-on satriani-like SHRED mode then 8)

gear stuff:

guitars -- jackson soloist and a 1965 burgundy mist metallic strat (wish i still had it)
amps -- mostly rockman "rockmodules", i had a rack of six of them, BUT the main "guitar solos" were cut with the strat, some boss pedals, into a 73 Hiwatt 100 head with matching original cab loaded with the original Fanes

i recorded this on an analog tascam 8 track 1/2" machine

the flange heard on the solo guitar was the big blue MXR rack mount flange. i WANTED a real thru zero flange, but as you can figure, the MXR could not do that 8)

bass guitar is me too, using a Spector NS-2 bass direct to the board with a little EQ

drums -- i programmed them, it's decent, but not great.

i like this track though, it's a "happy" sounding track, which is unusual for me.

give it a listen and let me know what you think!!!!

remember....it was 1988, and i looked like THIS back then :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice job, Bobby D! Definitely reminds me of Satch's early stuff, which would have been contemporary.

Doc :D

yes.....Satch was an influence of mine in the 80s. And this song was sort of my tribute to the way his songs made me feel, especially "Surfing with the Alien" and "Flying in a Blue Dream" era Satch.

this is an experiment to see if Clear Channel will ever really use it or put it into rotation.

I have extensive experience in radio, press, and retail music promotion, trust me........but this song is just an "orphan" that will never be on any of my albums, and I wanted to see what would happen if Clear Channel accepted it, and they DID........so now I am trying to get as many people to play it once a day as possible to see if they actually DO ANYTHING with it. 8)

NICE WORK!

I knew you'd like that song :-)

It's an interesting program. They just asked me to submit FOUR MORE songs........but........i refuse to GIVE them the rights to that many more songs FOR FREE.

First one is free....yes.....no problem.

But if you want the full audio version, or more songs -- let's NEGOTIATE 8) 8) 8) 8)
