I especially like: "SPREAD YOUR WINGS REACH OUT AND TOUCH THE SKY, SOMETIMES EVEN ANGELS HAVE TO CRY" Nice looking tele in your soundcloud profile pic BTW, I have one very similar except mine has a rosewood neck. Enjoyed the listen! Dave Blue Attitude Website Blue Attitude YouTube channel

Would like to hear that lead vocal a bit more upfront at the beginning. Let's hear that nice voice. Good story, great progression, fine production.

I grabbed my cans and had a listen. Much better. This is good. I like the writing too. Nice flow on the lyrics in the verses. Nice sounding mix. I'm a sucker for a ballad with steel and harmonica. Nice selection on the piano too. Tasty licks going on with the keys but not to the point that it takes away from what's happening up front. My only nits..... (minor ones to be sure) are the vox could stand to be a dB or two louder. They also seemed a bit too cool in an EQ sense in a few places. Warmer would be better. And just a personal opinion..... the ending.... I would have added 2 more measures with my hold on m3/1 to make it a more resolved ending. BUT... what you have there works perfectly fine. All things considered, this is really a job well done on this song. Last edited by Guitarhacker; 05/08/18 04:30 AM. You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.com Add nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
