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

Nicely done! I thought it flowed gorgeously, and your vocals are really attention grabbing on this one. I enjoyed the slow, passive groove on it too. It has a really nice pace to it.

Great work and thanks for sharing smile

Hi Jim,

Listened to your very sweet song and immediately fell in love with my two guitars, a 12-string and a 6-string.
Both blessed with those beautiful curves you sang about. It's because of Band in a Box that I have neglected them for a while.
So, you helped me loving them again.
But beside my adventure, I enjoyed your song and your call for cherishing the guitars.
At first I thought you sang too low, but quickly after that I began to really appreciate your nice brass voice. Didn't know you could reach that low register! Then I thought the song had ended. But you fooled me with that, because a while later you continued in a transposed way. You must do this more, Jim!

Hi Jim.
You singing this, right?
Very intimate style tune, reminds me of Leonard Cohen music.
Cool approach in vocals / spoken word. A reminder to me, that tunes do not have to be over-complicated to be good.

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.

Jim - the intro vocal - wow - radio voice or what?
As Rustyspoon/Misha suggests - there's a lot of Laughin' Lenny in this vocal performance - particularly the title track from You Want It Darker.
Most folk don't appreciate that Cohen was a very funny fellow in many of his songs as well as his conversations.


Cheers
