Song information
This song goes way back to the 80s, while thinking about my 1969 Impala Lowrider I owned in high school. We cruised Whittier Boulevard, Crenshaw Boulevard, Ventura Boulevard, and Sunset Boulevards. It was pure joy! I was looking to add vocals to the song and saw Mark Staab like the same music I grew up hearing in Los Angeles. He totally surprised me with the lyrics, a love song to the car. In 2017 I was asked to add music for a Local Lowrider car show and use an early version of the song and another lowrider song Sam and I did as well.
The video took off and now has more than 7.2k views, and the music is still doing great on the streaming platforms.
Thanks, Mark for your addition to the song.

Lyrics
Every morning, every morning I wake up with the sun
And every morning, every morning I lay awake beside you
It's so early, so very early just to feel you next to me
You're my girly, and so surely, I will care for you guaranteed

When we're driven, and arrivin', all my friends, they all look around
All the fellas, they're so jealous when they see us out on the town
Yeah they just wonder, they can't understand the love we share
I'm so happy, none so happy as me, I'm floating on the air

In the evening, I'm still beaming as we're laying out in the yard
Moon is glowing, and I'm knowin' we rule that old boulevard

-Mark Staab 2016

Cali vibe. Production is clean and effective. That opening guitar solo set the tone. The reverb is tasty.

Daugrin, Cali native here, glad you’re feelin’ the vibe, kind of a Malo, Tierra sound with a handful of WAR. This is an older version I posted during the beta testing so it’s not quite all there. Thanks for listening!
