https://soundcloud.com/user-100559745/tender-loving

Well this is my very first post so please bare with me. Making music and performing no problem. When using the computer I'm not that talented. Tender Loving is a song that I wrote and put together totally in 2015 Band In A Box. Then I loaded the tracks into ProTools to add my vocals and mix it.
I'm retired and live in Florida. I fronted my own band in Milwaukee Wisconsin for 30 years. Lots of recording and styles over the years. Check out pbarrymusic for more. Any comments positive or constructive negative will be appreciated.
Thanks
Paul Barry

Paul,

Welcome to the Showcase!

Nice upbeat song. Terrific energy to the vocals. The BAND works well.

Good mix of the instrument bed. There are a few times when the main vocal could be just a little louder. Drums are nicely mixed.

An enjoyable listen.

Paul, I liked it from the very first note.

Great vocal, although maybe if could come more to the front. The vocals are good but sit back a little too much.

Excellent choice of style.

All around this is a really great effort.

Paul,
A very high energy song that grabbed me right away. Production sounds good. I agree with others about that little tweak in volume on your fine vocal performance.
Excellent first song post!

Welcome to the forum!! Cool song-great vibe and great energy! Everything sounds good but the vocal is a bit buried, and maybe could use a bit more high mids. Looking forward to more! Take care. Greg

Thanks for the welcome and taking the time to give the song a listen. What part of Florida? We're in The Villages about an hour north of Orlando. Moved there because of the live music. They have free live music on three different stages in the complex 365 days a year. Listened to my mix and agree the vocals could be more up front.

Thanks for the encouraging words. Seems to be a consensus that the vocals could have been more up front. And after I listened again I have to agree. Thanks for the feedback. Australia, I'd really like to visit.

Hi Paul,

Well, we listened to this over on SOundcloud and left you a comment there, but it seems we forgot to come back here and leave a word or two. See what happens when you get into your 70s!

We loved this! This is a real cool song. Your voice is perfectly suited for the genre and you really shine. The BIAB backing tracks sound terrific - good choice of tracks!

Cool song! Thanks for a great listen ...

Very cool track.
You sure squeeze a lot of qualities out of Band in a Box !
What are the principles of getting the vocals to punch through the band in that remix? I mean, besides just turning up the volume?
I find myself straining to pick out the words, then stop and think, maybe in that genre, literal discernment is not the point. Dunno.

Agreed! Welcome to the forum. Great piece of music. As Floyd said, the vocal level is a bit uneven. Maybe some compression and verb to smooth it. Has a real live sound and great energy! Very well done!! Take care. Greg
