New Wave!

[shamustwin]

My one and only attempt, ca. 1984. Just me, drum machine, synths, guitar, my 4005, and voices recorded from radio and records.
Pretty dang obnoxious.

Nice job, Jerry! I wouldn't say obnoxious at all - certainly not within the context of the style. You layered all the sounds very well. It puts me in the mind of Thomas Dolby.

Thanks Mark.
Say...I have an opening for a bassist/writer.
The weather's fine out here in La la land!

You have impeccable timing with your offer - what with the dump of snow we just got out here today!

I like this tune. Fun stuff. Very early-mid 80s I'm getting club flashbacks.

Jerry a fun tune. I agree with Paul an ‘80s club flash back definitely. A Juden-Walker collaboration??? interesting mix of genera ….

That was a fun trip back to my least favorite moment in rock history.. synth bass -- forty lashes!

Just kidding, I actually liked it, at least, in this one small dose.. but no more; I'm not going back, you can't make me!

Well I absolutely enjoyed that. The prior post cracks me up, but these days I find myself liking New Wave much more than I did back then, when I was flogging 60's music with my solo acoustic act. Very nice intricate work, a million things going on, excellent vocals. Skinny tie? Poofed up hair? Sure...

This is the first I think I've ever "exposed" it to the public.

Has Tim left the band, Jerry?

Tim has left the band.
I want my bass back!
