Why Get Up ('Live')

My own take on a great song originally by The Fabulous Thunderbirds. I've attempted to make this sound as if it was recorded 'live'.

Pop/Rock, Psychedelic, Ambient, Rhythm & Blues and beyond.
Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
I've always liked this song from the Tuff Enuff album by The Fabulous Thunderbirds. It inspired me to have a go at recording a 'mock live' recording of it. It would be a great song to play on a gig... so this is the next best thing to that !
Lyrics
Oh, you're soon pick 'em up.

Very cool David. You really captured the live aspect. Very nice rock-n-roller! Great guitars and very good vocals. I think Michael said it, "great time capsule".

Nice boppin' tune! This sounds like it was a great concert back in 1966. Wonderful job here!!
