Perfect Time
This song was written by Dave Heins: Dave also played the acoustic guitar and some bass. Randall Collins on vocals.
Dennis Roys did the editing. Starting with band in a box real tracks we got a pretty nice start. Next we moved to Studio One and added electric guitars, acoustic guitars and Randy added some percussions. By the way we are all in our 70s.

Revised
Thanks for all the tips and comments.

You guys produced a great high-energy song here. I got a soaring Hawaii 5-0 (without the brass) vibe.
Very professional and enjoyable.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Tuneful pop, hooky chorus.

Nice work all around! laugh

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

That's a fun one.
From a mix/production level the bass seems muffled and rumbly.
It could use something to make it clearer...maybe a little EQ peak where is crosses over into treble territory or cut a little of the kick drum where they cross over.


Cheers

This is nicely unusual. Clear vocals.
Ray has some advice that would be worth trying.

Hi,

A very attractive melody and good vocals!
I like what I heard.
But I think the band is a bit snowed under (if you can say it like that).
What Ray and Vic wrote on that is a good advice: give the band some more dynamics. And the solo a boost!

Cheers,
Hans

Good rock/pop song with energy and catchy melodies.

As others have mentioned, the mix is a bit dull and needs some EQ work, not only in general, but also the individual instruments. But it'll be worth the time because it's a good song.

I really enjoyed the listen!

caplive,

Nice first post. Welcome to the Showcase.

The drums are a bit "muffled" sounding. But does not detract from the overall song presentation.
