"Cheers"--an astonishing cut. I can see Carlitos going, "Wait, is that me or is it . . . da Swanmeister?!" lol. Add highs and lows to the EQ and you'll have it nailed. Tell us about your mixing and monitoring setup.

The other cut weren't no slouch either, reminescent of Carlitos' & Johnny's "Naima".

WOW!

Swanny, you need to figure out a high quality video setup, and put this stuff on YouTube, man.

Those were both awesome.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!

"Once Again, Again" was my favorite. Great chops on both!

Nice one swanman! The first one sure catches the Carlos vibe!
And 'Once Again Again' is so full of feeling it's fit to bust. I really enjoyed that one also.
Excellent work and very entertaining. Thanks.

Very, very good. I liked all your other stuff also, but I can tell you have been working more on the production end of things. I know that can be a pain, but the difference is really notable. What ever you did, was well worth it. I listened in headphones up loud, and I'll tell you, you can smile about these . . . .

You know though, with your playing there is so much for us to appreciate as well, so what we say is really just an expression of your own abilities. I mean, you really do have the ability to play well, and as you're learning the art of mixing and engineering, in the end, not only is your sound going to get better, but your playing will, too, because you're going to start hearing the really subtle stuff, and you're going to want to make it better.

All in all, I think you're stuff is just great.

Good job, lots of video cameras with direct output to Youtube, not too expensive either.
