Very well done! I'm definitely getting some summery vibes with this one. The way you incorporated the reggae aspect here was very well done! It is wonderfully catchy as well. I wouldn't bat an eyelash hearing this on the radio among other classics.

Thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,

This is no exception. That doesn't mean for a moment that it's not exceptional, actually it really is.

The answer-back lyrics give another dimension to a truly great sound.

Cool, smooth, funky, great.


Thanks! And we appreciate the mention of the vocals. That was fun and pushed Janice up in her range but she nailed it in take.

Not much left to say, other than that a heck of a lot of fun to listen to.

Love the chorus echoing the parts. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hello, Janice & Bud, Peter

Janice's Background vocals are wonderful.
I was carried away.
As David said, it was so incredibly well mixed.
Peter also has a very good atmosphere.
Wonderful collaboration!
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

The soulful bluesy vocal laid on top of the rhythmic reggae track really sets this one off into the stratosphere. Excellent tasty guitar work and some beautifully executed cajon playing capture the groove. The inspired hand claps on the three was a nice touch. Perfection on the mix. A nice little side trip to the land of distant genres, Tom

Thanks for all the comments and mentions on Fox Den(just back from a short break). It was great to work again with Janice & Bud - those backing vocals are amazing, and it's always a joy to assist with what will inevitably be another great song.

I might have missed any reggae you`ve done before but everything about this tells me you must have been around this style before.
Above all the production & performance highs its also a really good write- not sure I get all the lyric references ( well, ok I know what "night soil" is), but who cares, Mr Fox is an interesting character.
Well done- way to have some fun with your songwriting!

Robert


Thanks Robert! We appreciate the review very much.

Yeah, we can only hope Mr Fox is on the run.... smile

Peter - some very lovely guitar work in there. So effective, so in tune with the feel of
the track. SO professional in it's execution.

Bud - Excellent mix. Clear, but still powerful.

Oh, and great cajon playing too!

Loved the whole thing.

Hi Rog, thanks for the very supportive review.It means a lot to us. Peter was indeed in tune with the track feel and that adds so much.

Thanks for mentioning the BGV's and the cajon. Janice was having a big time with this! Glad you liked the mix too.

PS Man, your rockabilly song is over the top good!

I'm late to the party but really glad that I came. Everything that I wanted to say already has been said. I couldn't express myself any better that what Rog wrote:

You all should be very proud of this one.

This is a keeper.
