I've applied all suggestions, kept some and finally finished the track by replacing the bass and the accent guitars. Mastered, as usual, by Fran Ashcroft of Happy beat Studio. I've removed all but the original version from the "Work in Progress" thread I started.
This song is really rockin' now and everything sounds good.
The vocals sound very good.
I would still like a touch more volume on the vocals if you have the head room. If not it still sounds like a finished track to me.
Well done.
Best Regards Nigel
Thanks Nigel, the replaced bass, (I originally opted for the Hofner one becasue the Vantage had intonation problems with the A string - but I fixed that), and bumped the vocals a tiny bit & the rest was the magic woofle dust of Mastering.

BTW, What green screen video software are you using on the alternative - I've pretty much thrown in the towel on green screen.
Stefan recommended a suite of things but I opted for the one in his list that was easy, cheap...and had some good reviews. VideoPad Video Editor. There are premium and pro versions but I downloaded the freebie to try before I but and the freebie meets my needs. It does have a nag feature when booting up but that's no issue for me. The 1st video is using a free version of Wondershare. The 2nd is the same source material but using https://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html

I knew I responded to your first meal-song. And I do know again, as you have noticed. In line with some others I could hear what you sang. I think the meal is far more tastier than the first one! I even liked it! Not only by looking at your faces (multiple) on the second video production Stefan advised, but because it is a good song. It sounds bright and I could distinguish all instruments as well!
That video is also very entertaining. I could see some of the effects Stefan uses. I can say a lot more, but I just want to say; keep up all this nice work. Maybe you can make videos for my songs too. I know you are NOT lazy at all!
Ray, Cool stuff. Bass rules! Fun harmonies. Listened yesterday on good studio headphones, gave it another spin on cheap 20 year old Sony "in ear" set today, sounds great even in cheapos. You (and Fran) did good. That software Stefan recommend does a decent job on green removal. Thank you for sharing.
Both vids and the mastered audio are hitting the note.
The new green screen looks good -- we gotta learn that ... someday.
As a couple of folks who just jumped into videos (other than our previous still shot efforts) we raise the pint glass to you. It takes a lot of forethought and work.
