Hi All, Here's a little song about a moment in time - a snapshot of musical life from NYC that stays with me… This song is called Chelsea Girl. I wanted to give this arrangement somewhat of a loose indie feel. Edited: Adjusted the lead guitar - thanks Steve, Charlie & ROG.

Bob,
That is a very nice Dylan like sound you've got going there.
Well done!

Bob,
As always, you have created another good, solid write. I don't think I have ever listened to one of your songs where I didn't feel challenged to write better lyrics. I've told you that many times. This one is no exception. The only slight nit that I have is that I would have liked the lead guitar brought up just a bit in the mix.
Really great song.

Great write, production and mix. I agree with Steve the lead guitar should come up just a bit but that takes nothing away from the song. Your vocals shined on this one to my my ear.

Steve,
Thanks - that's very kind of you.
I was on the fence about the lead guitar volume, but agree it needs to come up - will do that over the next couple of days.

Bob,
Your voice is unique - in a good way. Its taken me a few songs to get used to it; now I enjoy your signature sound!
The lyrics are poetic and drew me into the story... left me wanting to know more ( a 3rd verse?), so you suceeded in creating a mystery to the song.
Like an August rain
She was done too soon
Very good.
Robert

Very nice Bob...yep it would be nice to know more about her! But you've artfully laid the mystique down and we can take it where we want to.
Superb lyrics and production!

Nicely done, Bob. I think we may have trucked down some of the same streets in the city way back when. This reminds me of Bleecker & MacDougal music.  Regards, Bob

Bob,
Everyone's mentioned the lyrics. I like the melody and chord progression a lot too.
Can't help myself, I love it when you add that rock edge.
Catchy and your voice sounds super on it!

Hi Bob.
Yeah, as the others have said, VERY Dylan!
Great lyrics, again already mentioned, and your own personality stamped right through the whole song.
Good mix, too, but I agree about the solo - maybe up a bit and panned central?
Always look forward to your posts.
ROG.
