This piece was a lot of fun Håkan, thanks for sharing. It kept me tapping my toes at work!

Red River Valley is one of my favourite tunes to play because it's so versatile; played slow on a low key it is soulful and sombre - but played fast on a higher key, it's almost like bluegrass.

However, I never thought I would hear a version this funky! Well done.

Thank you!

I used Digitech XSW Synth Wah Envelope Filter with settings:

Sens: 12 o'clock
Control: 3 o'clock
Range: 12'clock
Type: 1

This is my version of Johnny & the Hurricane's Red River Rock. I really like that. Ballads like red River Valley is not really my cup of tea.

found a nervy point for me. from beat two i want to turn it off. i'm sure the harp will become more elaborate later but i cant listen to that beat and the timbe of the harp and the effect just adds teeth to the overall gratiness. i'm generally somewhat of a fan of your work Hakan, but not this time.

Nice effect, like a wobulator!
