Here's one I just finished writing a couple of weeks ago. Slower country song... I hope you enjoy.  http://achordmusic.mymusicstream.com/track/deep-insideI played two rhythm tracks, an acoustic on the L and an electric on the R plus some tele background fills and the vocals of course.  Greg Other RT's used were: RealDrums-CountryEven8 RT366 Bass RT362 Guitar Acou Strum RT365 Guitar Acou FingerPick RT377 Guitar Res RT2038 Guitar Res RT1856 Cello Deep InsideYou headed out west lookin’ for a way to find yourself again For so damn long it’s all gone wrong it’s time to let this ole heart mend Maybe a change of scenery will be just what you need And maybe you’ll find a way to erase the heartache that you feel Deep Inside Now don’t look back you left it behind it’s all in your rearview mirror The road up ahead it’s not the one that you led there’s no reason to shed a tear This time you won’t give in and let it pull you down Yea this time will be different with the courage that you’ve found Deep Inside / Deep Inside Sometimes your heart has to break for you to be set free But don’t let it consume your life just leave it as a memory Deep Inside / Deep Inside You made it out west it’s gonna be ok your finding yourself again It’s a new day’s dawn let the heartache be gone you’ve finally begun to mend Yea maybe the change of scenery helped more than you know And maybe your heart won’t be afraid to let your feelings grow Deep Inside / Deep Inside (Chorus) Deep Inside (X4) ©2013 Words & Music: Greg Achord

Greg,
Nicely put together. Good mix - very "even" throughout the entire song.
Really cool sounding vocal on this.
I enjoyed it.

Nice job on this. Well done on the recording.
The mix sounds good to me.

Hi, Greg !
You know, I happen to like your voice !:))
It matches the backing perfectly, could hardly
be better !:)) And I liked your backing too !!:))
Your singing just comes from "deep inside" you
that is clearly audible ! :))

Nice arrangement of your picking and RTs. It all works very well to support a fine vocal and lyrics. And out west is a great place to start anew!

Country is not a genre that I generally listen to, but I have to give you credit for a good melody and good vocals.
