This is a preliminary version of "Not For Sale". We would like to replace the midi drums with real ones, if possible, and I'm still not in best shape for mixing and (especially) mastering, but I think this version is still enjoyable. :)

This is the original thread in Studio "A":

Lyrics: John Williams

rock-n-roll ain't pretty --- that's why they picked us to play it.

Thanks, Mark! :)

Interesting, I had to google that name. I had never heard of Warren Zevon before.

I've added a better mix to the first post. Still not perfect ...

This is cool...it just flows really well...reminds me of Spit Enz or someone simliar, Steve sounds a little like Tim Finn when he sings softly.

I just added an update to the first post (and deleted the old versions).

Kim Noble added backup vocals, and I replaced the drum kit with a better sounding one.

Hi Steffen,

Kim has a lovely voice, very professional!!

Blends in well with Steve's vocals, it's a shame that none of the drummers graced this song with real drums.

Yes, but never say never. Some songs only get finished after years ...

For now I can live with the midi drums, and I'd rather concentrate on some other songs than wasting time with head-hunting ... but this isn't the end of the story. :)

Steffen,

...and all the top talent on the forum!  :o

Wow, how did you manage to wrangled a team like this together?

This sounds FAB  8) 8) 8) 8)

No wonder the song took sooo long

My Apologies for missing this the first go around!

Imagine if I had been around when Steve came on board  ::)

we'd still be in A working out the 1st verses  ;D

personally, this song has had a long, funny history from there to here...

Thank You, fellas for coming to the rescue!

(with a big hug & a welcome to "Kim", and Thank You for your Noble touch!)

You did it Steffen

Was reminded of the, "Andy" character from, "Shawshank Redemption"

time & pressure   >:D

Cheers to all those things not for sale   :)
