  1. Hey Freddy, I'm a little taken aback by this kinder and gentler version of Freddy -- I kept expecting some lyrical zingers.  However, this was very enjoyable -- I like the way you did the hi-lo vocals -- very creative.  And, I like the slightly out of left field guitar break -- you didn't go for the obvious lines there.  Mix is clear and the arrangement is terrific--good work~~Allan.

  2. Hey Mark, this was well done indeed-- I expected to hear Michael Franks start singing :)  -- beautifully played and recorded and the mix is top-notch--great work~~Allan

  3. Although I listen mostly to bebop style jazz, I do appreciate it when someone creates a piece as satisfying as this -- great arrangement, playing and mix.  Kudos~~Allan

  4. Hey Douglas, very good mix on this -- clear as a bell and pleasing to hear -- I like your Squeeze-like harmonies  ("Yeah...") -- good luck with this and your album~~Allan

    I like the groove of the song - the bass really drives it along.  I like your lead vocal and the vocal harmonies on this one - nice job there.

    The chorus is a good hook for the song. I really liked that wah guitar as well.

    I thought the mix sounded pretty good to me - well done.

    Hey Douglas, glad you like the song -- thanks for listening and commenting -- much appreciated~~Allan

  6. Hey man, love that guitar tone (are you a Rory Gallagher fan?) -- very nicely played  -- the overall mix and sound is very good -- spot-on vox -- thanks for making my toes tap~~Allan

  7. Hey Paul -- you've got a terrific voice -- I like your phrasing and the sound of your voice.  The arrangement got better as the song progressed -- like that tag a lot.  This is a very good demo of a very good pop song -- nice work!~~Allan

     

  8. Very nice demo of your song -- mix and arrangement are top notch -- I hear a touch of Waylon in your voice which is very appealing -- good work~~Allan

  9. Hey Douglas, wow those drums are crackin' in that intro - reverb sounds great -- but then during the song they lose some of the punch.  To me, it sounds like the heavy use of reverb throughout the mix is making the overall sound a bit mushy.  I like your sneering vox and the chord changes from verse to chorus.  Oh, that rhyme of "annoyed" and "toy"  -- good one.~~Allan

  10. Hey Rex, another terrific demo from you - the mix is very good -- I like your acoustic guitar playing: the rhythm is slightly unusual -- and, your vocal is spot-on:  a warm resonate sound coupled with good phrasing.  Good work~~Allan

    I should have know it was an sm57 - there's a reason it's been around forever?

    Yeah, and they last a long time -- I've had mine for years and it gets a lot of use -- and oh yeah, I use the mic a lot too~~Allan.

    I enjoyed the retro sound this has. Even though it has a 60's Beatles vibe to it I pick up clearly on the individuality in it as well. The mix is subjective and i might have done a few thing you did differently. I will let it at that because one isn't better than the other in this case. That 60's music wasn't made the same as modern music.

    Hey, I'm glad you like the song -- thanks for listening & commenting~~Allan.
