This one was tracked in a few short sessions in and among life responsibilities, back on the just intonation Tele Deluxe. Once again, I went in thinking I'd do something more sparse, but ended up filling in the spaces. As it came out, there are waves of more-busy and less-busy, moving between assured and wistful. Some of the measures flowed more naturally when truncated by a beat, or allowing the next measure to start earlier.

There's the usual signal chain: no hardware effects, just guitar into UA Volt with the convolution reverb send on each of three channels. There's also the usual stereo compression/eq.

The title comes from the town of Morecambe, where the A589 road leads to the shore.

Story

The K.O. II got a big OS upgrade this week, and this is the beat I came up with to test the new song mode. It's pretty simple but I'm happy with the result. I was going to record punch-in FX too but never got a take where I liked what I'd done, so we get the beat as-is. :shrug emoji:

This is a track that is at a stage of development where it would benefit from taking a rest and getting a fresh listen to at a later time. I think there are a few good ideas, but the execution is not great and there is still much that would need to be worked on. But it's Sunday night on my side of the planet, time to submit.

it's been a rough one, and again no headphones. so. noodling on the piano time
