It was an impressive album and remains a classic. Thanks.

No one is late at the party that never ends... The BIAB tracks are listed a couple of spots above this comment.
Thanks.

Wow, Ray, you’ve done a terrific mix of the BiaB tracks and your performances and Fran’s mastering aced it. That open/airy feel is hard to achieve and you nailed it. That piano is top of the bar in chops and tone for the song.
We like the gospel bgv’s and are reminded of Ruthie Foster’s excellent vocals.
Bravo!

PS You said, "his was a case of subtraction...I had lots going on and needed to cut away stuff to get to the core." True that! The old adage that perfection is when there is nothing left to take away.

I looked her up...BIG voice.
Thank you sir & ma'am.

I like the descending bass line in certain parts== that was just a little thing (of the many things) that stood out for me. Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous!


Thanks,
Perhaps it could be cochrane's swallow - "Una hirundo non facit ver" or cochrane's chao from "Ordo ab chao".

Nice mix. All the accolades are well deserved. I know what it takes to produce something like this and you hit the bullseye. I wish the drums had a bigger (louder) presence and the main piano some times overpowered the vocals (on studio phones) but other than that it was great. Of course this is all IMHO but thats what we do here right? Wonderful song, kudos.

Thanks Rick,
The drum were bigger for a while but I took that back to where I felt they's have been in the early 70s...it was, after all, an exercise in way back machining.
The vocals - not as buried as I'd like them...being overpowered/whelmed is part of the design...narrative...plan PLUS it's my voice which needs cremation more often than internment.

Ray, I almost missed this one but man am I glad a didn't miss it.
Everything I wanted to say already has been said and I agree with all of those accolades.
This is pro all the way.
This one is your best to date and should be on the radio today.
Loved it!

Nicely done Ray. A definite Pink Floyd vibe.
Did you post the lyrics somewhere?

The piano and bass particularly stood out to me.
Great job.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Thanks Thumper.
I did in the Work In Progress thread but here they are again:
LYRICS
To each his own is what we are told
But not those whose lives are bought & sold
Your place is held if you comply
Though no warranty will apply

The truth is hidden in your mind
So deeply you will never find
The proof that hovers near your tongue
Despite the stories that you’ve sung

On and on conspiracies combine
Create a thatch held with brittle twine
To house your fears and keep them warm
While watching for the coming storm


Cheers

Cool stuff here Ray.

Man I wanted to grab my guitar and throw a smoldering lead on that... Very Pinkish Floyd without a doubt.

Nice work.

Thanks Herb,

I've posted the chord chart...just walking around in C with lots of variations on a chord to provide motion.
