This is a work in progress, with me playing all the instruments, and roughing everything out on a Tascam multitrack recorder (8 track DP-03SD). I have tried using DAW's and get confused with the software, so I returned to my roots and got a MTR from Sweetwater.

Anyway, I hope you can play my Sound Cloud file, as it has a really neat Mandolin intro in the key of D. I don't know how many folk songs, 70's singer/songwriter ballads, have a Mandolin intro.

Drums: Me (Alesis Nitro Mesh, electronic kit).
Bass: Me (Samick 4 string -- cheap Pbass copy).
Keyboards: Me (Yamaha full size DGX-505 dual voice, piano & strings)
Mandolin: Me (my old 1977 Ibanez A body Mandolin w/ "lawsuit era" headstock)
