Very enjoyable listens.

Guenter, I'm glad you liked it! Tom

As always great audio quality of the mix. As far as emotion and all-around harmony goes, this one kicks it up a couple of notches.
We have had some favorites of you before. But apparently you manage to keep on raising the bar!

RnAM, Thanks for the nice comments. I appreciate that you always take the time to listen. Tom

I think Pat got it right. It is just hypnotic and beautiful!! The prosody is amazing-it's gorgeous music which has a little bit of an unsettled sound. The groove is great (RTs work perfectly) and your vocal is GREEEEAAAAAT!! AMAZING STUFF!! Take care. Greg
Greg, You hit the nail there. Unsettled sound. Thanks for pointing out your observation. Tom

Clever arrangement to support buut not bury the melody/voice/lyric.
The mix, in headphones at least, really surrounds and gently holds me.


Cheers

Noel covered it all well - "Everything about it is outstanding; you name it, vocals, arrangement, mix, everything." The arrangement invites you in and then the words rip out your heart...

That cello is tucked in there nicely.

Your vocals just keep notching higher with every new song...

floyd, Thanks for the great comments. That cello works well in a lot different songs. It's a bit of challenge not to use in every one. Tom

Thanks Atze, I have learned a great deal about mixing and mastering by hanging out on this website. It's a great resource for learning engineering. Tom

Hey Herb, I never thought of G Lightfoot, but I can see now where you hear that. Thanks for checking in. Tom

2. Your voice --as floyd mentioned. It has become a strong instrument to the point that it's hard to imagine another interpretation of the lyric.

3. The production that so many can easily take for granted...until you try to do it. You crank these out while I continue to bang my head trying to figure out how you and a very few others do it. Yep, I've got many of the same tools but it takes a LOT more than that.

We'd rather listen again than go any further trying to analyze it.

High bar production!!!

J&B

This is certainly a great review. Thanks for taking the time to say such nice things. Tom

I think that we write alike in that we're talking about the same subjects a lot but from different persceptives (you can disagree if you want) Strong vocals, everything flows like a really good song should. I know those Drums On Demand drums sound clean and good but man I love the Nashville BIAB, use those, EQ that snare, make it pop a little louder and...just my preference

Kenny
I too love those Nashville drums. However in this case they just didn't work. Thanks for all the nice comments. Tom
