Thanks for the listen and comments @PhonoBrainer, @Bajan Blue, @jack c.. I feel like the low end of my mixing is my problem area, it's hard for me to tell if I have too little or too much. I actually turned down the bass settings on this after listening on a couple sets of my headphones, it seemed over powering. I think I need to start using a reference track when I do mix down.

Thanks for the listen and nice comments @noynekkerand @Bajan Blue!

On the sax forum I hang out on there was a collab challenge to write a song with someone else on the forum. So I put this track on there, I had not found a great melody for it. One of the sax pros on there took the bait and put in some really amazing stuff (his name is Alex Nyman from New Zealand). I got the files from him and just finished the track. He does all the horn work on this, including the super cool wah wah sax solo. I used my ZZC PJ bass on this, fishman midi guitar for the keyboard and my cheapie strat on the lead.

This is a very cool song, has to Zappa inspired but it's not easy to do Zappa. Tell us more about this track.

Agree it's Zappa-ish, interesting tune.

Appreciate the listen and comments @AndyB01, @Herky Acuff, @garybrun, @Teegarden , @Larry T. !

Very good playing, doesn't look like an easy one to play, really nice.

Agree very professional sounding. I think there is way too much reverb on everything though. 

Very cool, this is a good one Wookie.

Lovely bit of late evening chill that - nicely done - very enjoyable.

Lead nylon guitar has a lovely tone - please tell me that's the real thing and not a VST.

Thanks! It's a Yamaha classical guitar

Wow that's amazing. Really nice song. If you didn't say I doubt I would know it's robots singing.

Nicely done.

I had no idea you could do robot singing, kind of crazy. Nice work.

Very slick and creative production. Nice song too.

Very creative arrangement, great song. Agree with the Peter Gabriel comparison, that was the first thing I thought before reading the comments, not bad to be compared to his work.

Really great production. The bass and drums are very cool, actually it's all very cool.

Yes very nice song. Like all the guitars and piano interplaying, sounds great.

Nice song and vocals and well recorded too.

Cool version, I like the way you changed it up.

Great song John, very good piano playing too. Only crit is I would stick with the flute, it sounds so realistic, the sax doesn't.

Pretty epic, liked the guitar jam at the end. 

Great song, I like a story teller tune. Sometimes I was wanting the vocal a little more in front and the reverb is a bit strong on everything. Nice work.

It works pretty well as a rock groove.

Yes, sounds really good! I wanted to turn up the vocals just a  bit though, otherwise great.
