I like the 1960's references.
Scott's guitar is sure booming out.
The whole mix sounds like a live recording.
Congrats to all involved. Rob4580


Rob,
Thanks for that- glad you liked the song.

Rich imagery with the lyrics, as always they make you think. My favorite:
"between white knuckles and blind devotion
I let the kid drive to a white collar ocean"

Track sounds great, I like the way you pan the vocal to separate the two characters, very effective.

Nice licks from Scott, I especially like what he did around the chorus sections.

Very cool, Robert and Scott!


Dave,
I like those chorus licks Scott plays too!
Folks met hitching tended to be free with conversation (you`ll probably never meet again, right?)- I got an earful of some wild opinions a few times... and was invited to spell out the driver more than once ( years before I had a license).
Thanks very much for your positive review.

This is one of the most interesting songs I've heard on the forum in a long time! The initial thing that grabbed my attention as the first verse played out was the interesting panning of the vocal. It was accomplished very subtly with no jolting change. Nice! It compliments the haunting effect of the mix. Really cool song! Enjoyed my listen! Best to you both ...

Alan,
The vocal seemed confusing without panning - couldn`t think of an example ( other than duets) so a bit of a risk- I`m happy you thought it worked.
Thanks for your listen and comments.

Robert
