Please Help with a Title!
I worked a new original using Band in a Box for my bass and drums backup. I asked a few people personally but am also interested in ideas from others here. This feels like a combination of a Scandinavian folk song and Jerry's middle section of "East Bound and Down".

Rande, it sounds like you were "Feelin' Jaunty" to me. Great song and a fine Gretsch tone, too. Was that a Gretsch or your Strat? Either way, I think you should do more originals.

Re: Please Help with a Title!
Thanks Ray! I've got a number of originals but I'm never happy with the sound of my recordings so I've continued to put them on hold. However, now that I'm a matter of weeks from turning 70, I'm trying to force myself to record them anyway before my lack of existence prevents the possibility!

Re: Please Help with a Title!
I recently turned 77 and I completely understand. I am trying to start recording videos and songs again, too. I don't have those original thoughts like you do, though. A coherent thought would shatter my mind in a million parts some days. Take care.

Rande,
How about "Train Ride through the Swiss Alps" or "Royal Train Ride". To me it has a high class feel to it while at the same time the rhythm reminds me of a train ride. Really enjoyed the tune and your playing!
Thanks
Steve

Thank you, Steve! I like your idea about the Swiss Alps, since it felt more targeted than just "Royal" in general.

Hey Rande........My two bits........How about "Feelin' Randy" ? You will have to look up the definition of "Randy" to get my drift. LOL

LOL! Roger, I already know that definition! I had a close friend from England who "enlightened" me
I probably won't use it....lol.

Re: Please Help with a Title!
Wow! I really, really liked that!
That was one of your best!
I'm gonna really think hard about a title, but the suggestions you've already gotten are excellent.
