Hi Alan,
I actually did have delay and also reverb on the vocal.
I'm always cautious about adding too much reverb, that's a rookie mistake.
But you were right, once I added a bit more it sounded much better and sat in the mix better too.
So, thanks! smile

Rock on you two! This is tremendous.

It sounds great on our monitors and I know it will on the "big" system also...look forward to that this evening.

This absolutely nails what we now call classic rock (but retaining a hint of the blues). Hits all the buttons for us.

The vocal is so strong as are the guitars...even the nuances like the tremolo. floyd mentioned the segue from the solo to the vocal...very tasty.

Kudos y'all!!!!

What a fun and catchy song Dave. Love the arrangements, guitars, vocals, everything.

This sounds like a live blues jam captured at a club.

Jam-packed full of soul man. Love that guitar!

Very very good!

Thanks very much, Robert!

Liked the overall mix, and the organ component.

Enjoyed my listen.


Yes, the vocal was a little too dry. I've fixed that, sounds better now. Thanks for the comments!

Played it loud. It's the kind of song that's hard for me to listen to the lyrics, because I get caught up in the groove. laugh

Enjoyable listen!

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

Thanks very much, Herb! Yeah, I didn't want that tremolo guitar to be featured too much. I thought it would be more effective if it just came in every so often instead of chugging away throughout the entire song.

Great work and thanks for sharing smile


Thanks, Deryk!

Well, for me the rock that I enjoy listening to the most has a hint of the blues. And as far as my own stuff goes it will always be there, I'm a much better blues guy than a rock guy smile

Thanks for noticing the little things too like the tremolo smile

Thanks Kenny! And thanks for noticing the B3, took me a while to get that transition right.

Man, I have to say how much I enjoyed this song! I thought the drums started the song to set the mood but THEN the guitar came in and really said "listen up!"

I really do like every part of the song; but want to especially say how much I enjoyed the guitar parts. You have a great hook going on and built so well around it. THEN THAT SOLO! Ohhhhh how I loved the tone and melodic choices you made. Sa-WHEEEET!

Thanks for sharing this gem. Even if we got it a little later than some of the rest of the world. wink

Dave,



To my ears this is that classic rock sound at it's very best! Your playing is superb (as it always is). I also found myself captivated by Chris's lyrics, her singing and her melody.

Everything about this sits snugly and creates a really entertaining musical feast.

I thoroughly enjoyed it.

All the best,
Noel

Classic rock at its absolute best!

This reminded me a lot of those Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper Albums, its that good. Great work on the vocals, drums and off course your excellent guitar chops. The mix was perfect IMHO.

Keep on rocking!

Man, talk about an underrated guitarist! Mike Bloomfield never got the credit he deserved IMHO, and he was as good as if not better than his contemporaries of the day, Clapton etc. Just a superb player! And those albums with Al Kooper were great.

Always great to hear from a fellow guitarist, thanks Mario!

Dave and Chris, what a great groove you have going on in this song! Everything about this song is pro all the way! As usual, the vocals are outstanding and the guitar work is as good as it gets! What I have a great appreciation for in listening to this song is the way you crafted your guitar work around the vocalist not overshadowing Chris but complementing with your playing! Your work inspires me to take it up a notch! Thanks, Torrey
