I decided to tackle this great Electric Light Orchestra song from the 1970s. I actually played this song when it was on the charts back in the 70s. I really tried to get all the instrumentation as close as possible for a "ONE" keyboard backing track. Drums, Bass, 3 types of strings, 2 Choirs, intro synth sound, Telephone pulse tone,, and Electric piano layered with a grand piano. I cant sing like Jeff Lynne, but my Harmonizer helps me on those high parts. Harmony was done entirely through my Digitech Vocalist Pro rack set to vocoder midi note mode. Everything you hear was arranged by me entirely on the Yamaha MOXF6 keyboard. No software or daw was used. I gig as a solo act in SW Florida and play all the songs I post on youtube
