The sound from about 2:48 on is perfect to my guitar snob ears, I loved every single bit of it, I thought it was beautiful. However, from about 2:32 or so until 2:45 I guess, there was too much flange for me and it seemed somewhat out of character with what is to come, I can't describe except to say that 2:48 on is very muscular and masterful, but to me (and this is just me) that 2:32 to 2:45 ultra flangey section seems kind of watered down in overall tone quality by comparison and I didn't like it quite as much.


I will be easy to reconsider the solo and retrack that first part playing the exact same notes and licks..... Yeah, thats the kind of feedback I need. I was actually kinda sitting on the fence about the split solo starting with flanged guitar going to straight.... I think I'll keep the flanger on the harmony to the vocal and play straight up on the solo.

I kept thinking, "who did he get to sing this?" and "it sounds a little like if Vince Gill and Feetwood Mac did a song."



My wife also commented that it sounded like Stevee Nicks...Rihannon.

My first over all impression was "holy s#^t Herb! This is AMAZING!" I loved the guitar sound, and mood it created, and blown away by the vocals (lead and harmonies), and production over all.

I was stunned. I was jealous!


My hat will never fit my head again.... Thanks...! Hopefully you still respect me now that you know how it was all done....
