But with your bass, guitar and organ you packed a lotta good in it.

We enjoyed it ... it begged another listen and we accommodated it.

Thanx Janice and Bud. My energy drink ran out faster that I thought it would so yes it is a little shorter than my normal songs. Note that after this one I had to take a nap!

I think it's amazing how you manage to weave all of this into a cohesive whole that also sounds very appealing. You must be a good jammer then. And thankfully, you are! A jack of all trades. Whether it's classical or pop, you always manage to make something captivating.

Great job!

Thanx so much Hans. Actually I am better at jamming with others than playing all by myself. Unfortunately there is no one else around my age to jam with anymore.

Hey, I had no idea you could noodle like THAT, Mario.
Awesome.
As others have already pointed out, the guitar is the main instrument, so it needs to be louder.
And while you're at it, clean up the guitar's low end a bit.
And make the mix a little brighter overall.

Thanx so much for those tips Brian. As you know playing and mixing a song like this is not like any other song that I have done. Thus my mixing skills are not up to par. I appreciate your comments and suggestions.

I've never heard you "let loose" like this before, but I really like it! Much more fun than shoveling some snow! Love the licks and tone! Nice job!

Thanks, TB
