BIG IRON (Extended Version) | PREVIEW SCREENING (Patreon)
Content
Well, we all knew this day was coming, it was just a matter of time before I relented to the demands and delivered the dusty old goods. Marty Robbins' classic tune "Big Iron" re-imagined as um... this thing!
I hope you enjoy the video, we had a HECK of a time making it. And not just because I'm such a prima donna to work with but because this was surprisingly challenging to pull off musically and technically. Lots of head scratching, lots of quizzical glances across the room, and lots of "ums" "errrs" and "bone headed dufus" were thrown about. And that was just me talking to myself.
This one picks up where the short version left off, but then continues on for the next week and half because apparently Mr Robbins was a story teller in the same way that Tolstoy was. Brevity may be the soul of wit, but why use one word when twenty will do, right?
Anyhow, I'm delighted that this epic of a song is crossed off the list, and now we can all stop wondering what a "Full Version" of "BIG IRON" would sound like. Because it would sound like this. 😉 Boring, just the way I like it.
