Not quite what I expected on the MP3 but I like it
just the same. Kind of a Frank Zappa meets Tom Waits
feel to it.

Good Job trying something different

For me the secret of minimalism is what goes unsaid but is implied. I think youve acheived that here well done. Using socks to allude to sox (I never could spell :D ) is very clever. Very interesting mp3 too a sort of dirty blues, very appropriate.

cheers

Yeah, it's as bluesy as I can muster.

It's recorded and put up on Soundclick for those interested: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/songInfo.cfm?bandID=337003&songID=4445272]]> Sunday Songwriters Group SlowPlay https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-45-dirty-socks/#post-199040 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-45-dirty-socks/#post-198845 Fri, 15 Sep 2006 18:30:42 +0000

I'm seeing this as a bluesy piece?

Not really much to critique because there is not much there.
That's not a bad thing I've been trying to get more minimal
in my writing. Seems like a good fun song.

Can't wait to hear it

An experiment this week with a new subject matter and a new style of writing. MP3 forthcoming.

Dirty Socks
©2006 Robert Gowland

Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks
Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks

They're gonna get all sweaty
And cling to your skin
They're gonna get all sweaty
'Til You gotta peel 'em off

Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks
Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks

Slide outta them clean clothes
Ain't nothing clean going on
Slide outta them clean clothes
Piece by piece take 'em off

'Til all you got on
Is them dirty socks
Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks

Let's go dancing
Slide them socks 'cross the floor
Let's go dancing
Don't get cold feet now

Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks
Slide 'em on
Them dirty socks]]> Sunday Songwriters Group SlowPlay https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-45-dirty-socks/#post-20417
