I listened to some of your other songs. Time Travellin' is a neat song. I like the effect (gate?) on the drum and the interplay between all the guitar tracks.


Howdy Jim....

Thank you kindly for giving a listen and commenting favorably.

To be honest....I liked those damned horns so much I worried myself.
I was very concerned that I'd get a bit too enthusiastic in the db department.
If you say it would be good to re-visit that balance factor it's an easy fix.
Probably 1db (for each) appropriate.

"Time Travelin" I had fun writing that one and I felt the imagery was there.
My personal propensity is in the lyric/coherent story focus and my music (chords/arrangements)is never difficult.
Yes...there was some gating but I forget where?...duh.
My buddy did lead axe/bass tracks...I did rhythm guitar/keys/vocals/harmonies.

I had all the Alesis Micro series 1/3 rack space devices in that recording era.
This one was recorded back in 1994 (Teac A3440S/Fostex Model 80) and I used the Kawai R-100 drum machine so I've threatened to do it over again....it currently remains on the creative back burner.

Thanks again Jim for checking it out.....and the other tunes.
A good evening to all.
