SPAK

Tell you what .. (and I'm gonna get a reprimand for this), but sometimes you godda say what you really feel and ..I *****ing love it !! I love the harmonies, love the way you sang it, the mix ... clear as a bell and it shows your talent in spades .. not gonna say well done 'cause you'll get 'big headed' but I will say 'I wish I'd written this' .. so Great song, I wish I'd written it 👊 Steve

As said on SC ..Great stuff mate ..am I allowed to say your stuff is getting better .. from me ? .... Well Goddammit, there ... I said it!

Just great .. that's all I got to say 🤠yep I think so ..

OMG Missed this one 🤔 and I think you have a fan for sure, been listening to your back catalog (Cosmos Music) great stuff indeed 👍 Steve

DAVID Thankyou, a real compliment given your understanding of music .... I think I'll give the call to Pete a miss though 🙄 Steve BJORN Thanks mate, have to say it's what your good at too! so I'm made up👊 All the best

Thanks very much Tom .. I always feel your observations are so helpful, as said, I used my old compressor ( YAMAHA GC2020BII) which was always a bit hot when trying to achieve the correct Comp Ratio/Threshold, so that's most probably it .. but you never cease to amaze me .. have you got digital hearing I wonder 🤔 ? Take care mate and thanks again for the comments Steve

Or me

Depends how fast he does it .....

Yep ..but sometimes rules have to be sidetracked ....

Great vocal work here and the mix to me sounds just right .. but what stands out to me is that bass WOW .. vids very pro so good luck with this project, all good in my toy room ! Steve

Your buying !

Thanks Gary .. I'll stand further back from the mic in future Steve

Funny thing was that in the day I replaced my 688 with the FW1082 (Really wanted the 1884 but that was all the wife would allow me to spend !) then the FW card kept playing up and I replaced that with a 2nd hand ESI 1010 which was great until I updated the desktop with a new M.Board (Prime B450 +) soooo now it's all done on USB using a Behringer Xtouch and a Steinberg UR44 / Quad Capture .. 😴 ... Yep we are getting old ... lets go an' get a light and bitter down the local ..... 🍺 Thanks for the comment mate Steve

Thing is Lynn this was recorded on my Tascam 688 using an old now but then 'cutting edge' ish Casio CZ5000 and some outboard stuff, yamaha 2020/ Roland U220/ Orbit V2/ SM58 ..etc running from a midi track (MTC) on the 688 ... all very organic stuff, .. now made obsolete with VST's . When I went through some old stuff around 10 years ago I mastered it using SonarPlat ... Funny how the old stuff really holds up to my latest DAWs ie Plat/Cakewalk BandLab and Cubase 10.5 ...wonder if all this tech stuff helps or hinders ... maybe I'll go back to playing the guitar at the top of the stairs ... Things seemed easier then .... 🤔 Stay loose my friend Steve👊

Yep I remember ..... and now I need to buy another pair of monitors 😲 Steve (Supa)

I REALLY enjoyed this bit of art ..Fine stuff indeed the mix is sharp and interesting and the vid drawes you in with a little humor ... Great work Steve

This is so tight and clean .... and the beginning made me think of the 'The Thomas Crown Affair', great stuff indeed ! Steve

I agree with Tom (ES) & John on this one, additionally the skill of mixing is top notch so not lost on me and there's a lot of work here ... great post👌 Steve

I am so pleased you enjoyed this one and against you and many others on this forum that have so much musical talent I feel made up ...thanks again for the comment Freddy All the best Steve

Believe it or not I met Mr Nelson one night in a pub by accident while working in RCA in London, he was and always will be one of my late great hero's. I plucked up courage and offered to buy him a drink .... not lime in a coconut but a large brandy !( 2 of them I think) left me skint for a week, but worth it just to have that gem in my life. Thanks for the compliment mate and yes this song keeps getting resurrected every now and again as people hear it for the first time ... might have to throw this away to stop it keep coming up 😕

Great idea ... A single malt should do it 😜

God ! that new bit'o'software you got is dam' good ...great stuff Steve

Juno wot !! I hear a bit of Floyydean stuff ... I have this in my fkn head now .. like a fur ball you can't cough up ..... LOL

Thanks Mate ...My greatest fan 👍👊 LOL ...wishing you well too (I've PM'd you with an update) All the Best Steve
