NEW POST: Lazy Dayz (2020 mix) - 01/26/20 01:57 AM
Late last year on User Showcase I submitted a blues/country instrumental, called LAZY DAYZ.
It got lots of nice feedback from forum members but there was some criticism about the way the organ melody panned via a Leslie effect and there were comments that the song needed a vocal track.
I’ve fixed the organ panning problem but haven’t added a vocal track yet though I have written some lyrics that I’m pretty happy with (Also, I'm not a singer and don't have the facilities to record vocals).
Just before Christmas, I purchased EZmix2 and Mastering II EZmix pack. I’ve been experimenting with this program and am pleased with some of the results I’ve been getting. One of the songs I've been working on with EZmix is Lazy Dayz.
With your indulgence, I submit the 2020 mix/remaster of Lazy Dayz:

I would love to get some feedback from recording/mixing/mastering enthusiasts re the new mix compared to the original:

Thanks everyone,

LAZY DAYZ is a slow-medium bluesy piece with a touch of country. The melody is carried largely by Hammond organ, with trombone/brass handling the middle 8 sections.
The backing features great guitar solo work by Jack Pearson and tasty acoustic guitar backing by Brent Mason. There is also some nice organ accompaniment by Jeff Young and beautiful pedal steel by Steve Hinson.
