Everything about this is good. A great listen.

Floyd,

Beyond a very sincere "Thank you", I'm not sure how to reply. I'm delighted it all works for you. Deciding on the exact BG tracks was the hardest decision - except the acoustic lead - I immediately knew I wanted it. Mixing in the acoustic rhythm was the most delicate part of the operation. It always came across as a little too much and or not quite enough. So, I had at a point where it sounded like just a little too much and backed it off slightly and that's where I left it. Also, getting the tone exactly where I wanted it took a little time. I wanted it to very slightly ring but nit sound thin or "tinny". I listened to it with each other instrument separately. When I found the one combo (tone-wise) I liked with the piano, I added in the other tracks and made only very minor adjustments at that point. I thought that was the most important pairing as they would be complimenting each other on the opposites sides of the pan. I wanted a mutually supportive balance there.

Anyway, that was probably more than you wanted - just thought I'd pass on my approach for this one. Hope that made some sense

Thank you so much. Wishing you and yours the very best ...

Alan
