Ok - Johnny Ramone influenced me when I was a kid... can ya tell? (Don't believe me look at my grade 7 pic below) This track is pure, dead ahead punk celtic rock - did I just create a new idiom? I dunno you tell me. I wrote this reel between September and December 2009 (can ya name it?) and did the drum tracks and small pipes (John Walsh key of A) in about 6 hours, did the guitar bit in one take after spending six hours finding the right sound - it's a Marshall Plexi for those gear heads out there,played on a Gibson Nighthawk bridge pick up volume and tone wide open - and did the bass bit in two takes - started with 16th notes and found it too cluttered, so mixed it up between sixteenth and eighths...
Mastered and dumped in one evening... and voila! Simple music that makes ya feel good.... I love this one. Fun, up and moving. It was recorded at 170 bpm... Johnny would be so proud - I got my red high tops out for this one....
Hey! Ho! - Let's go! Oi!!!!!!!
Go to the player and scroll down to "Keepin' it reel" and hang on!!!!!! Ya won't want to be sedated....
