The combination of drum and bass is wonderful - well done! (you always seem to have such a good bass sound in your mixes). Sounds great loud - I hope you shared with the neighbors...

"‘cos Kate rhymes with reciprocate" - cracked me up with each listen - even when knew I was coming...

Cool lead.

Right.

floyd


Cheers floyd,
My neighbours have had a listen, I have stopped mentioning that test as no one complains or has commented mad grin
The lead was difficult as it was hard to get it to sound playable,

So glad you enjoyed

Greg mentioned it first...but, man, how
cool is that? Great job on the guitar
track comping. Hearing a little Tom
Petty in the vocal and in our book that
is most excellent.

The mix sounds very good on our monitors.
Heck, everything about it sounds good.

Yup, we enjoyed it and it now resides on
the SC playlist for further attention!

J&B


Thanks both, I really appreciate those comments!
Yeh Tom Petty!! Somehow the Travellin' Wilburys leapt into my mind with that comment.
Wouldn't that be cool? The Travellin' BIABies, a group of the different BIABers doing songs together!!!!!!

Anyway time for my tablets

take care both

You outdid yourself on this one! This is probably your best to date. It has everything, great backing tracks, super vocal )I agree with the Tom Petty thing) with just enough effects and outstanding lyrics.

It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

Alyn, Another all original unique sounding piece. Rock on! Love the delay on the vocal. Arrangement, mix and humorous lyrics are all spot on and keep me anticipating your next one. Enjoyed immensely. Tom

Alyn,

Whadda song, whadda voice! You're like Dylan or Waits. No one ever sounded like them and no one will ever sound like them again, because now the best anyone can do is to be impersonator. I like to brag, facetiously, that I can identify any player within three notes. False about 95% of the time. You, on the other hand, are one of the 5 percenters.

See you in the fall my friend.

Dean

Gibson, that was a fun listen. Let's go indeed. The guitar tone/feel on the outgoing solo was great. The song took me to my Beatles "Revolution" place/space.
