Hi Dave and Marty,

A great Blues song! In every perspective!
In all these posts above mine I read the same and no wonder.
As with most of your songs this one has such a pleasant vibe that brings me in a very, very good mood (I don't go into details) while I listen to it over and over again. That is what this song does to me.
But beside the fantasic ban, Marty and his bass and your beautiful leadguitar, I want to say one or two thing about your vocals;
They are really very good. smokey, mysterious and nicely dark. You said you like my voice, well I like your too!
I have a little hesitation about my second point, but I do say it; I wished them a bit louder in the mix. Especially at the start of the singing.

On a scale of 1 to 10, you and Marty earn at least 15 points, so hats off!

Hans


Wow, Hans, that has to be the nicest review you have ever given us I think!

Yeah, everyone has told me the vocal should be louder, including Marty before I unloaded the song. I am very new to singing, I think this is only the third song of ours that I have sung, and I still find it odd hearing myself on the playback. I've bumped it up now and will revisit again in the week or so with fresh ears.

Thanks again, greatly appreciated!

Happy you liked it, Torrey, thanks!

Lead Guitar excellent - great tone and lovely playing.

Vocals - yes suitably growly tone but too low in the mix. I could barely make out any lyrics except in a few places. The vocalist is the key to any song - I would have the vocals at the same level as the lead guitar.

Mix and backing instruments - excellent.

I'd like to hear a remix (just a tweak in Reaper) and more of this type of music.

Best Regards
Nigel


Hi Nigel,

I dabble in most genres, but blues has always been my main thing. And yes, very familiar with that Albert King song .
I'm a big fan of most of his music, especially the stuff he did with that great Stax rhythm section.

Thanks for the great review, and thanks for checking out the remix! Not perfect yet, but I'll get back to it soon.

Dave
