Words Won't Do - Garry Manuel (remix)
The recording of this song began in 2019; however, as many stories have pointed out, the pandemic put some hurdles before us in accomplishing that task. The original track had drum plug-ins, (fake, for non-musicians). While Garry was pleased with the track, he knew it would be better with actual drums and percussion added. The drums and percussion were added by Ben Gramm. Ben had played on the early Sunup recordings and live concerts, so it was a logical fit. Garry admitted that, “It was so great to have Ben play on the track! I have so many meaningful relationships in the music world that extend quite a ways back.”
Garry plays all the guitars on the tracks, which include: several electrics, a nylon string and an acoustic steel string. He is responsible for the writing and production as well.
Chuck Bianchi, who has been a long time instructor at Manuel’s Music Studio, now Rochester Area Music Project, has laid down an absolutely perfect bass track.
Brian Soule, long time keyboardist with Sunup and former instructor at Manuel’s Music Studio played some tasteful piano.
And the recording engineer was once again, Garry’s son, Marshall, who has proved to be an excellent and brilliant technician, but who also, has great ears. The last point being perhaps the most important.
*An incredible video is on the way soon!
