Hi Joe!
Definite improvement, and helps make the song shine. I heard some good lines in there that I missed on the first pass. I’m gonna check out a few of your other songs.

Yes, Soundcloud is good for being able to replace tracks - at least the paid version - and I will often upload and replace multiple times during song mix to listen to it where others will. It’s a pity I can’t do the same with YouTube.

The balance between BIAB tracks and my own is one that I have pondered as well. There are some instruments that BIAB does way better than I ever could (or could record); some that won’t do what I want it to; and other times where I just want to optimise my own playing content so that I suffer less ‘imposter syndrome’. Using BIAB styles and tracks honours the spirit of this User Showcase forum as well. Your decision to upload busked songs is a good one - I might consider this myself.

Well done!
Andrew
