Funny, funny shit, and really well done. Some brilliant lines, great feel.
Banjo loop was cute at the end - not sure it worked the other times. Mebbe the only gripe.
We used to do a country version of Tone Loc's Wild Thing - pretty funny. Never saw the light of day, though - leader was a real wimp.
Congrats, guys. HRC4 seems to have brought out the best in all of us, huh???

Re: Yes
That's one hell of a compliment BUT, I think everything I've heard so far has been great. Mike took a simple idea and tune and made it sound good IMO. I'm glad the vocals turned out OK on this, I put a pretty good bit of time into trying to make the harmonies just right. There are still a few "sticky" spots but for the most part I was happy. The guitar is a shitty old 99 dollar "Woods" and it's a miracle that it sounds as good as it does (Thanks Mike again). I'm a guitar hack and have basically held off on buying a decent guitar until I could actually play. I've started thinking that if I wait that long I might never get a new guitar Off to the guitar shop this afternoon... I need a new guitar to match the new drums I bought last week.
This has been a great challenge and I'd like to thank Slucie for putting the effort into making this fun.
Thanks again
Dennis

You can PM me with "sonic" comments if you like! I don't take shit personal and would appreciate any comments you have, good or bad. I'm trying my best to get better at this and could use all the help I can get.
What I've noticed: (the parts I did)
The guitar : The inotation and playing sucks. The guitar was in perfect tune before I hit record but sounds like shit at the beginning.
The vocs: Sounded far away (My fault). I sang this pretty loud because it was the only way I could hit the notes. I backed away from the mic to prevent distortion but it made it sound like I, uh...
backed away from the mic. If I got closer it would distort.
All Mikes stuff sounded fine to me. He is a pro and it was nice to be paired with him.
Thanks

Listening again because there was so much to take in. Intro is classic. I was like, "what is going on?!"
Every HRC submission has been great. Each one is a breath of fresh air!
This is hilarious and very well done. I don't think this was the easy to pull off either but you did great. My only complaint is the "banjo" in the middle. It did not seem to fit well there - a little distracting. It was a great loop at the end though!
Vocals and harmonies were very nice rusty. G - good work pulling this together and giving it bite. The rap was great too. Bass work/sound was nice as usual.
Great work!!!
edit - forgot to add the song title is awesome!

"All my friends cried when that Greatful Dead dude died." Damn that was funny. "I'm a country rapper, when my wife wakes up I slap her." Thought I'd pee my pants. That spoken part in the middle had my eyes tearing up from laughter. Great.
I liked the little bass pop stuff after the disco line.
The banjo part might have been a little bit "busy." My only complaint.
Good job.

I really enjoyed it. Like BB said , sonics aint really the point, but this sounds cool.The banjo thing is novel too. It is about communication, creation, experience, and sharing amongst the brother/sisterhood, and havin fun working together.
The fact that on here we could just as well be on different planets, yet still we can jam is a very very cool thing!

I'll be there
Man, I've got two homegrown rap tunes on my system...

awww...percussion's too loud...
Way cool!
I was all geared up for some real rap, you can imagine my surprise.
I don't know if it's just me, but the percussion was way too loud. The song catches up with it somewhat, but when it kicked in it took over the whole song. Wow, I thought I heard a real banjo, I must be dreaming...
