The Simple Things by Gary Sparks/lead guitars by

Date Added: March 31, 2008

MP3 Description:

On this collaboration with Gary, I took my own intiative and downloaded his MP3 made available for public download, then presented his song to him with my guitar leads and vocal harmonies added to his already-finished MP3 as a gift, really the only gift I have to give. I had a heck of a lot of fun being creative and doing this, and I sincerely thank Gary for graciously allowing me to play on his song, even if as a well-intentioned fait accompli.

    HEY....THE RYTHM WORK IS WELL ABOVE AVERAGE AND THE PERFECT CONTROL OF AND INCLUSION OF THE NATURAL ACOUSTIC FEED BACK IN THIS SONG IS EQUALLY WORTHY OF GREAT ADMIRATION......WITH MY SUPRANATURAL CREATIVITY AND RICKY'S DEXTERITY ON GUITAR........A REAL DRUMMER AND BASSIST.....WE'D BE UNBEATABLE
    ALSO THE VOCALS ARE WORLD CLASS ..LYRICS INCOMPARABLE AND UNIQUE.

    In the interest of proper attribution, please let me point out that this song was composed, written and performed Gary Sparks.

    I merely added the lead guitar tracks to his already finished MP3 through the magic of Cakewalk.

    Hey man, I dig the song and it sounds as if you were there to write and record it when it was being done. What you added is definitely now a necessary part of it. Very very cool tone (and everything else) on the solos. I assume that's Ricky because it sounds like him. Either way,I can dig it.
