The City of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie

[LakeLife]

Can someone recommend the beat and tempo for this?
Thanks!

try ballad 8, 148 bpm, might not be exact but useable.

[LakeLife]

It’s a bit too lively for that song, but very usable. I had tried the Rock 1, but the intro and outro fills don’t fit the laid-back stoner quality of the song.
Thanks! Great recommendation

Pop 10 at 74 bpm might also work

I’m using the Brushes 1 @ 135. Works for me.

[LakeLife]

I like that one.

Glad I could help.

City of New Orleans - DOP, OPB & OPBk

Arlo Guthrie Notes: Count-in included This was a fun song to transcribe. Finding the right MIDI source file and in the right key was a challenge and I wanted to find and use a train horn for the start of the song but, I did not want to add the train horn to an existing user-created drum set opting instead to use the horn as an accent hit. As you start to play the song, you can play the accent hit. For those that have the time and inclination, they can built the wav file into any existing kit …

There is also this one in the song page

It doesn’t do the song any justice, it’s a different feel. Rock 1 is more accurate, as far as the default library goes.
