UPDATED VERSION: https://soundcloud.com/mark_hayes/the-juniper-tree-2

I've tried to rebalance everything with focus on bringing out the two guitars in the second part. Mainly I thinned the MIDI mix, deleting cloned piano parts, changing excessive octave-tripled passages into more reasonable octave-doubled passages, and dropping the Logic Drummer track. But many other changes as well, including tweaks to the lyrics, and much effort put into getting the final seconds right.

I'm not sure how well I've addressed the masking problems mentioned with the original, but this does sound good now in my own head. No more rattling aspirins! Of course, suggestions about how to get it to sound good in OTHER people's heads are again more than welcome.

Thanks again to all.
