Tryin To Live My Life Without You w/ Drums (Bob Seger, Otis Clay) by MelloBlend

This song was originally performed by Otis Clay. This classic song was made famous by Bob Seger's remake in the late 70s and early 80s. I love both versions and this version is to the style of Bob Seger musically and Otis Clay vocally. I am playing the Yamaha DTXpressIV live over the Xbox music maker version of the song. Hope you enjoy

@theboss5155 O wow, thanks for the props. I really appreciate it. I will do just that I hope soon. I am sure I will get the opportunity some day and will record a live version of it...thanks again !!!

This put a smile to my face. You need to have someone catch you doing it live with an audience next time.

@SnyderRon That just might happen in about 2 weeks...I will try to get a camera there to record this song. I will be performing that one as well as a Temptations Medley. Thanks for the comment

@mrusmarshal OHHHHHH, thanks man. I appreciate your support. I hope you can find a keyboardist. I know how that is. There's always a hell raiser in every group. Sometimes, it can stop the show but when I was touring, we had backups just in case. Thanks for the comment and just learn any song, that's the key !!!

@MelloBlend All i can say is very very nice i need a good man like you in my band we are trying to do a 30 yr reunion and my keybord player backed out after 3 weeks as always but keep up the good work your a bad man someday i want to be just like you

@mrusmarshal Man! Do I have to say you have absolute talent. I pride myself on my drum playing and just being able to keep the beat and changes. Here you do it and sing too! You are awesome!! Keep it up!!

[MelloBlend]

@mrusmarshal Haha, yeah well, years of listening to background vocals of the Temptations got me into music theory and musicianship in general. I really enjoy playing instruments as well as singing. I always preferred singing over playing but I was dangerous enough to play my own parts one by one. Music theory & playing by ear was how I learned, thanks for commenting

[segerfan]

Do you have the instrumental version of this? if you do can you post it up?
