New Song Released - Jim Croce Classic
Thanks to all my fans out there, we've been killin' it on the charts. Well, I've just released my first cover song. It's an old Jim Croce classic YOU DON'T MESS AROUND WITH JIM. Of course I had to make it sound like my own. So what you'll hear when you get it is the classic NashVegas Sound formula. I upbeat the tempo, added some killer slap back rockabilly guitar and of course fiddle. But, probably the coolest part of the arrangement is the horn section. Who would have thought of horns in a Jim Croce song. Well, I would and they are the best part. It almost has a secret agent song sound. My co-producer Mike Loudermilk, came up with the idea of taking Croce's humming and making it a full on horns section. It was a great idea.
Well, since it is a cover song, I had to properly license it and pay for the right to record and sell it. The only set back with that is that I can't stream it for you to hear other than just a sample clip. If you have iTunes and Apple Music though you can still do it. Please give it a listen, I hope you like it. Let me know and I'll soon cover some more old c'rockin' songs.
