As usual the vocal, bass, guitar lead, and mix are spot on.
I really liked this one.

D'anks, Mario. Dat makes me smile.

BIG sound from a big mix - I bet the screen stunned your eyes more than once.
The "Groove that" bvocs seemed, once or twice to get in the way of the superb lead vocal but it did give the live feel a nudge up too.
Loved it.
Thanks, Ray. You're right about the mixing screen. Daunting with a lot of scrolling. Fortunately I took the trouble to keep it somewhat oranized. I should've ducked those harmonies behind the lead, but (again and as usual) you're right about it adding to the live ruse. I even came in late with the first bass note just to add to the illusion. smile At least that's what I said to myself when I realized it.

SInce I don't use a DAW, the envelopes and buses don't mean much to me - other an envelope will eventually get my letter delivered, and a bus will get me across town for a buck-and-a-half. I just wing it with BIAB and Audacity - literally.. But this is pro-sounding stuff! Excellent woprk.

Thanks, Alan. I'm blown away that you don't use a DAW; your productions are masterful events.

That’s a crazy amount of time and energy spent. But it sure sounds like fun. Good job to you and the band. Movin and shaking my way out of here.
Thanks, Tom. Probably the only bad times in NOLA come after a particularly good time there. wink Yeah, I don't hang around with that drummer after gigs anymore. You still got the moves, Tom.

Thanks, Bob. My favorite part is you playing harmonica with it. Man, you are so good on that thing, especially the chromatic harp. Do more of those!!

Enjoy whatever happens!
