Ray, we always love your thought provoking writes and enjoy reading the lyric again and again. All the songs reaped the rewards of your "free to shout" session and we hope you can arrange more of those.  The lead and harmonies sound good and we especially liked the arrangement of the voices on the end of "You Seem Alien to Me." Your instrumental performances as well as the RT choices sound ace to us. Enjoyed them all! J&B

Your vocal sounds just fine!
I liked the mix and backing tracks.
Two thumbs up

Ray, it's like the difference between night and day! Your vocal sound great to me! Once again, I really love that chorus! It really stays with the listener for a while! Thanks, Torrey

Ray,
I not only like the vocal a lot, I like the way it is blended. This is really good. I genuinely enjoyed this.

Hi Ray,
Finally I hear your vocals as they should be in terms of volume and brightness. A shame you have hidden them for so long!
They sound good (enough) and that helps the melody enormously. Maybe in future songs you can skip the doubles in the verses. That make the chorusses sound great(er) in my humble opinion.
But very well done! This is how I like future Ray-songs!!!
Hans Thanks Hans, They've been hidden becasue they weren't up to scratch. The vocals will be thinned as I'm in the processing of "comping" the best parts into one track.
Cheers

Such opportunities will be few & far between for the next six months or so. Still, plenty happening to keep me busy.
Cheers

Thanks, Torrey Thank you Torrey, Basically the chorus melody is, as you can hear: root, 5th, root then semitone shift down, semi tone shift down to start again. I prefer an excellent voice wielded by a passionate performer, such as yourself but needs must.
Cheers

Thanks David, A bit of Phil Spector, (without the pistol), stacked vocals helps the weak voiced like me.

Hi Rayc,
The sound of your guitars reminds me of shadows. Your voice is well mixed and fits perfectly with the instruments. Your sequence of chords is always interesting because out of the ordinary. Well done. I appreciated.
kindly regard

Yes, this sounds really good. As others have commented, there is nothing wrong with the vocal. Hitting the bottom of your range? I like your harmony.

Thanks JJF, A bit of AC30 tone & a spring reverb can do wonders.

You are making very good progress in that endeavor, Ray. These vocals sound far better than anything synthetic. And you're mixing them up front where they belong.
