Dan;

As a Jazz man, you are one of the people I was hoping would weigh in on this tune. No vocal correction was used as you can tell in a couple of spots. This however is not the finished version, its sort of in its final stages, if I do anything with it at all. Thanks for the vote of confidence on the vocals.

How refreshing to hear that someone enjoyed it with no equivocation re the midi vibe. Thanks for the listen. We all tend to hear things differently dont we?

Don;

Thanks for the listen and the compliment. You've been at this a long time, and I've heard a lot of your work as well.

Jeff;

No overstepping at all here Jeff. I like the detail. I don't make a living at this, but I do have a little sideline that keeps me interested. This particular piece has not been mastered to any degree at all. Just a basic mix, and you are right on many technical points. When I bring songs here for critique, it's usually because several people have told me how great it is, but there is something I can't quite pinpoint that doesn't fit. That said, your feedback is just the kind of thing that can help right a hidden issue. As you know, after hearing a song twenty or thirty times, your ears tend to stop listening.

Powderman;

Thanks for the listen and feedback. If it is at all enjoyable now, then it has potential. The new quality of midi sounds doesn't really bother me like it used to. In fact we were all doing fairly well with it until realtracks came along. Don't get me wrong I just ordered the new sets of RTs but they don't always do what I want them to do. And truthfully unless you are into this home recording thing, most people can't tell the difference.

I agree, when I heard the version from the big Hawaiian dude Ishmael something....I realized just how well this song was originally put together. When you can do a song with a Uke and sing have the melody as a harmony part as a solo, then you have a hit song.

Dang....This is addicting.
