Nice one rharv! Love that loping feel style. Excellent vocal and mix.
But why so short? There's outstaying your welcome and then there's turning on the welcome mat and leaving! I want more! Must be room in there for a rip-snorting guitar solo surely?

Hey rharv,

This song is as professional as they come! I love the way you've massaged the Realtracks into such a rich a professional sound. The arranging, production, vocals, everything! is top notch.

I have to agree with Skyline, I want more. It's too good to finish so soon.

All the best,
Noel

I'm smiling as I type. Both Silvertones and Barry said the same thing; you should make it longer, it ends too soon. My thinking was that I wanted it to end with listener wanting more instead of dragging it out to meet the typical 3 minutes. I suppose another 30 seconds or so would be nice, but I want to keep it short and sweet.

Skyline - you up for adding the solo? I'll extend a mix for you ..

Cheers rharv, I'll see what I can do!

Give me a couple days; Lions football tonight and meetings for the next couple nights .. but I'll get it by end of week. May be able to squeeze it in before the game tonight, but not likely.

Great Job Mixing !

Just saw this and DL. Cool nice job Bob and it was fun for me.
I sent you a kick drum track that went with the bass track.I think you used it. It sounds like it.
My Chain:Carvin BB75 5 string/IKMultimedia Stealth USB interface/ IkMultimedia Ampeg SVX Modeling Plug/Out of Stealth into my Audigy 2 ZS Notebook Card in.
The Stealth is ASIO only. I play it through IKMultimedia's Ampeg SVX Modeling Plugin in Standalone using the B15 amp.

Thanks, I took suggestions and lengthened it so John could throw a solo on it and he tore it up. I'll post later if things go as planned.

New extended version.

Thanks a ton to Skyline for his guitar work.

I had to turn off my monitors to avoid over heating after that hot mix. Very nice guys.

Thanks Dan.

Very cool, rharv! I've been gone for almost 2 weeks, and I almost missed this one. Glad I didn't! Good teamwork there, and a good song!

Keep it up!

Steve

Great 70's rock vibe in this one.

Thanks Trax. I was surprised to see this one pop up after being so buried down the pages.

A good listen, rharv...

Your link doesn't appear as a link - you might want to fix that for those who would miss it because of that... and... this apparently is not the version with the solo added??

Good to see you here on the dark side...
