ROG,
Excellent opening. Always nice to hear someone put some real thought into that...
A good write.
Nice use of vsts. Have to say I did not care for the piano sound - it seemed really "dry" and "short" (no sustain). That is, of course, subjective. Well played...
Always like your vocals. Mix is solid.

Hi Floyd,
I'm always pleased to hear your thoughts.
Funny that you should pick up on the short piano sound - I'd previously programmed that DX7 piano patch with a longer decay and release which worked well for chords, but which had a tendency to smear on fast solos, so my friend asked me for a separate edit with a more of a percussive sound and less sustain. On the song I used the original patch for the left hand chord pattern, but tried out the new patch for the solo. Maybe I over-did it a bit and if the track had been recorded in MIDI I would try it with the other patch, but unfortunately I recorded it as audio and that double note solo was a bit challenging for me, so I might never play it the same again!
Anyway, I'm always grateful for the review - many thanks.
