Sounds great, especially in the headphones, Rob. Lovely panning. Man, I love that whole band, especially the clarinet. What a slap-happy feel. Ain't no way someone can just STAND anywhere without moving those feet. Absolutely great job on the horns.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Rob, that is has taken a long time hearing from you again.
What a nice entry you have created with this song. Very swinging!

"Yes I sure know I have the broadest grin" is a sentence from your lyuric, but I doubt that. I think I had!
Nice one with the clarinet.
Next month a new song like this?

Nice weekend,
Hans

Nice story, a journey out of the corner. Great band, the clarinet and the horn section works really well, truly swinging tune.
Excellent vocals with many nice details and some Elvis, I enjoyed also the backing parts (and of course "Nothing left" on the right).

Nice and bouncy. Nice use of stereo! Background vocals are cool.

Blues with a clarinet - excellent combination. Horns are a nice touch as well.

Fun tune! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Cool!
I like the backing vocal spacing.

A nice retro vibe, really captured that big band sound.
Vocal performance and mixing is top notch!

Blues big band shuffle - why not it works a treat.
The vocals are excellent.
The band is hot/cool.
My only not would be suggesting you bring the hard panned bvox in to between 50 & 30% either side as they seem too wide at present...NOT a problem ...just a "druther".


Cheers

Rob, the lead vocalist for the Benny Goodman band! Seriously this is that good.

Everything about this one is top shelf.

Loved it

Rob,

A good Blues Shuffle. A very cool BAND - nice use of horns and clarinet...

Good vocal - very "comfortable" - well done.

Excellent mix. Good music.

Great classic Blues shuffle ... I really like the choice of a clarinet for the lead. I like the Mills Brothers backing vocals. Cool Track ... nice build.
