SOTU 411: I SANG TO HER - by Dennis Danner
This really doesn't meet your guidelines regarding originals, Rick, but I feel like my participation in the Seasons has been nothing but, "Missed Opportunities, Second Chances, and Do-Overs," for over a year. Hope that changes with the New Year!
This is the most recent song I wrote, and I quickly recorded it with me solo to use as a base track for adding in additional tracks from others in our small band, "Four Random Notes."
Hope to add in some: percussion (shakers & djembe) from Evelyn in addition to her harmonica on the break (unless I can find a violinist to lay down the break and some fills - anyone interested?) . And, Marylou and Evelyn will add some harmony vocals, along with some picking on a concert ukulele with Dave contributing on the U-bass line.
