Don't Settle

Liner Notes
Sometimes, when trying to get a better handle on Logic, I will just start with a very simple progression, and see where it leads - simple is the key.
I was pretty happy where this one lead - and for those following my mic odyssey, apparently, one can use a tascam, as a straight into the DAW mic - it's quite hot though, and I didn't quite get just how hot - so there's a little clipping here.
It was used on all vocals, and 2nd harp solo (because one is never enough 😆)
Also - apologies of the 70's riff rock guitar solo... I had an empty slot, and rather than just cut it out, (or work out an intelligent solo...) I grabbed a fistful of fuzz...
#blues #harmonica #selfhelp (of a sort....)
Lyrics
Don't Settle
Sometimes, simple is the best
Just three chords, honey, forget the rest.
Wait a minute...I might need a fourth..
Ha! There it is...but no more!
Now, I'm not saying your life is a song,
But, if you keep it simple, you can't do no wrong.
Mind your business, but, protect your own.
See that drama - just leave it alone!
Don't settle,
Don't settle,
Don't settle, never close that door.
Don't settle,
Don't settle,
Don't settle, you're worth that and a whole lot more.
Now, I'm not saying your life is a song,
But, if you keep it simple, you won't go wrong.
Mind your business, but, protect your own.
See that drama - just leave it alone!
Don't settle,
Don't settle,
Don't settle, never close that door.
Don't settle,
Don't settle,
Never settle, you're worth that and so much more.
