Joanne...

Your mix is excellent. One of your best ever I think. Nice instrumentation, good balance, crisp and clear. The vocal with the harmonies got a little hot a couple of times (not by much). It is, however, a "dated" sound - pure 50's... Very well done - if you want that sound - but dated, nonetheless... in that musical bed, the vocal (and harmonies) become more a part of the production than the star of the show. It was a hallmark of that style. It was always tough for a vocal to rise above that cadence...

Guenter's production/mix gives you a "current" sound. The song and the vocal are more "the star" - it has a "sexiness" that the other does not (cannot by its nature). When she sings "kiss me slowly" it sounds like she really wants to be kissed. I never got that feeling with the 50's style. The guitar solo adds to the sexiness of the song - smoldering (I'd like to know what RT it is). The instrumentation causes the vocal to ooze feeling. I kept comparing the two at different spots to see if they were the same vocal...

So... my vote would definitely be Guenter's. For the feeling that it evokes. Your production/mix is beautiful - so if that were your choice, it certainly is not a wrong choice...
