Scott,

A very nice mix! ... a couple of little things... the bass needs just a tad more "meat" - not much - my guess would be about 1.5 dB. It's "okay" the way it is, but it would be nice to add just a bit more bottom end to this.
The transition into the soft section needs something - maybe a hold by the bass and an acoustic strum - and a cymbal that rings for a little longer (everything cuts off too quick).
Those are small things - the rest of the mix is excellent...

Ya, what Floyd said.

At the risk of sounding redundant, redundant, redundant, repetitive, repetitive, repetitive, you have a very unique voice that is not tiring to listen to. All vocalists should take a lesson from you. It's not power so much as it is control. Obviously, you've found your ideal vocal range, your "sweet spot", and you've capitalized on it. Well done, mon ami!

Scott, this sounds much better. Whatever you did at the end- the single strum will work at the transition. I'm OK with the bass. I guess it depends what you're monitoring with. Sounds good on my headphones. I do like this song! And dude you can sing. Keep em coming. More, more, more. All the best, Tom

Floyd, Don, Tommy,

Thanks for listening and for the helpful guidance. I'm starting to know what to aim for in the mixes now. On the mp3 I didn't upload, the bass was higher by about 1db:) I was like, 'Please, let there be the right amount of bass.'

I'll see what I can do about that transition spot. I cut the RT's quickly there except for the resonator and my flat top.


Regarding your high praise for my singing, wow, Thank You.

Oops. Missed your comments Dani. Thanks so much. The RT's are so good, I would rather 'not' record my own guitar, but some of my tunes are built upon a certain strumming or picking pattern. Glad you enjoyed it.
