This has a cool beach music vibe to it.

Nice clean mix.

Nigel,

The oldies feeling of the late 50's is very well expressed.
Great selection of each instrument.
Vocals are also great.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Nigel,

This really sounds good to me! A great vocal! I don't know if anyone else made this connection, but your vocal really reminds me of the late, great Micky Gilley on his hit "Stand By Me"! I will have to re-visit some of those great sounding Realtracks you used! Nice Production! Thanks, TB

Hi Bass Thumper,

Thanks for your comments - yes "Stand By Me" is probably the right era for this song.

Nigel,

Excellent production. Everything sits "right".
The vocal has a nice "fat" sound - sitting in the mix perfectly.
Cool song.

HBi Nigel ...

I'm not familiar with Ry Cooder's work. Will have to check that out. Regardless, I like this a lot. You never disappoint. As usual, outstanding vocals and nice backing tracks. Thanks for a real nice listen!
