Hey everyone...I posted an instrumental a while back and I called it "The Smell Of Jazz Man"...well I found a partial lyric sheet from years ago where I had began a song to that core style and chord structure...It was called "Dream Weaver"...I wrote it for my son to sing but that hasn't happened so here's my lame vocal demo...I love the combo of inspirational/smooth jazz (I think I just invented a genre)...anyway, I hope you like it...the vocals suck...this is a younger man's song but the track is cool thanks to BiaB. Dream Weaver https://soundclick.com/r/s8hwxlBiaB stuff: TONY_FD.STY Laid-Back Medium Rock 366 Bass 365 Acoustic Guitar 508 Electric Guitar 1237 Electric Guitar Piano, drums and choir from Yamaha Genos

The vocals do not suck and actually they are really good!
Nice backing tracks that fit perfectly with the vocals.
But IMHO the vocals should be a tad louder. In spots they are very hard to hear. This is just my opinion and others may or may not agree.
Great song.
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

rayc...I appreciate you saying that...I tried not to be too wordy cause I wanted mostly that great jazz track to come through and Dwight to have most of the time to kill it with the guitar...thanks again...Dan

Hi Dan,
I fully agree with MarioD: The vocals don't suck at all - you really shouldn't be that coy about them.
A very nice song, very well-arranged and produced - enjoyed the listen a lot.
Take care,
Stefan

Take care,
Stefan Stefan...thanks for your thoughts...not trying to be coy but I recorded this song in a key that I couldn't sing it in and I was too vested to start over at the time...so you get the verses in an octave melody...one is too low and one is too high..it was a compromise that together did sound better than either one alone...but IMO "sucked" (a relative term for I don't like this much)...however, for you guys that think it's OK, I really appreciate it...I'm gonna work on it sometime...I do really appreciate your opinion...thanks again...Dan

Smooth and dreamy but not crossing into the ethereal land. FWIW, we see no need to bring up the vocal gain ... perhaps a little eq manipulation to help it "cut" a bit. So as you mentioned the guys liked it -- we'll add another guy and a gal to that! J&B

Hey I liked this! Yes, turn up the vocals. Ok, before I do my joke, first let me say I go to church and have played in many P&W bands, so I feel I can do this. When I saw the "Smell of Jazzman" I was like, whoah, I remember that guy, from my first band in college. Then I thought. He's not talking about that Dude. I go on and on and on here. But am I safe? Does anyone but me here read the Babylon Bee? Should I keep going....???

J&B Janice and Bud...thanks so much for your comments...I think the volume is fine for the vocals but I think I might EQ the piano and drum track to make some room for the vox...clean out a frequency or two for space as per your thoughts...thanks...Dan
