My own vocal rendition of the 1963 classic "Talk Back Trembling Lips," recorded using GarageBand '11 on my iMac. In addition to the vocal, I'm performing all the musical instruments: rhythm guitar (real instrument), bass guitar (real instrument), electric guitar (real instrument), piano (real instrument), strings (synthesized using a MIDI keyboard), and drums (synthesized using a MIDI keyboard). This song was recorded at my home in Huntington, WV, on April 25, 2011. The song was written in 1963 by John D. Loudermilk and originally recorded by a country singer named Ernie Ashworth, who enjoyed a #1 hit with the song. Shortly thereafter, Johnny Tillotson released a popular version as a crossover hit. Again in 1990, Becky Hobbs released a cover version, which did not chart but which graciously included a much-older Ernie Ashworth.
