I also thought that maybe the repeated 2 lines Poor Sam Stone, ring the bell. was a bit awkward since almost every tune has 4 lines of 4 beats to the bar.

Thanks for giving it a shot - your voice is excellent in any style (you lucky dog) and the recording was so clear and 'present' - it was great.

That was just what hit me when I saw the lyrics Carol, I've been listening to a lot of Jazz recently and it seemed to fit this subject, glad you liked it, that was a real on the fly demo.
It is a bit wordy, would it be ok to jiggle it around a bit, I was tripping over some of the words so would like to tighten it up a bit and flow a bit more with the Genre, you'll find if you mess around with it a bit you will be able to fit it into one of your tracks but it might need a bit of a rewrite, I didn't realise your thoughts were in the other direction, wouldn't mind carrying on with this, that loop isn't enough though so might have to look for another tune don't have the skills or the instruments to do that so I'll need some help, anyone play the Double Bass ?

Cheers Carol, nice song
