Hey, I warmed up the crowd for Hanoi Jane and Tom Hayden (he pissed me of though! What was his bs deferment?). Played a fund raiser, voter registration event for McGovern. Sorry! Ok, my blood pressure is almost back to "normal" (did I take my meds this morning?). Great job, and as Bjorn and Kenny said, Allan Sherman brought back some fond memories... Two thumbs up!! (at least) Tom

Nicely done! Have to agree garyburn, I can picture a beautiful Christmas morning with just a "skiff" of light snow. Maybe just a "hint" of snowed in, could that be, reindeer tracks? <begin rant> Had some "issues" with Spotify, its a free hosting service, and I understand why they want you to "create an account"; but is it really a "bargain" for the artist if visitors have to jump thru a bunch of hoops? <end rant> Sorry to "rant" in your thread, but two potential listeners (read that as potential fans) had issues; and in my case I have an account! Tom ps: SoundClick seems to welcome non-member listeners, don't know what the "user" end is like; just sayin'...

I have to agree with Steve, your’s is much more “pleasing” to the ear. I’m not sure I would pan the fundamentals hard right, but that’s just me. I really struggle with brass, (I’m a guitar player, what can I say) so it’s always interesting to hear someone else’s approach. ? for sure! Tom

I’m always down for some “furry paws” and wouldn’t think of bailing early! Fell in love with that intro beat and you kept me riveted the whole 6:48. Well done for sure. Tom

I’m hearing a little Stones on this one, but I’ve said in the past I think Doug is Doug. Sounds like you’re enjoying that tele! I do think you need to check your timing on the outro though, that one guitar is just a bit late (early?) sounds “off” to me. Tom

I feel like I’m looking at a painting and it’s evoking all these auditory expressions. Or, maybe something trapped in a 50 year old fat cell has found a way out, they say it happens; flashbacks? Anyway, I wouldn’t change a thing, it really does “paint a picture” for me. Lovely ambiance on this one, I really did feel like I was “floating” in it. ?? Tom

I feel like I’m “Cruising’ with Ruben and the Jets”! Man Freddy, I wish I had your knack for storytelling, I really do. You know, I kinda think it’s done, you can polish it up, but I think there’s a chance you’ll lose a little of that raw (I hate using the word, but I think it applies) authenticity that defines Freddy J. Tom

I get the raunchy rock reference, or maybe garage rock. Does, as Freddy says, have a bit of a Link Wray influence. I see it in a scene where the “minimalist” feeing doesn’t distract from what’s on the screen. You say you feel like you’re growing, stay at it! Bring us some more. Tom

Yikes, you’re asking for trouble!

The “word” on SSD’s originally was that you shouldn’t constantly write and overwrite. So for OS use or samples, you write to the drive, then you read from it. I’m sure it was recommended not to de-frag an SSD, because again you are writing/rewriting. Modern SSD’s maybe not an issue? When Jim at StudioCat recommends SSD for the audio drive, I’ll be “all in”; until then... I haven’t googled it lately, maybe times have changed. Tom

Old school here: OS: SSD Samples: m.2 my system supports 1 and VSTi load so fast from the m.2 it would be a “waste” for anything else. Superior Drummer loads “yesterday”! Projects: still using WD Black drives. Until the last word comes in that write/rewrite is not an issue on SSD that’s where I’m staying.

I think this and “So Much More” could be the basis of an operetta. I’m very much enjoying your work! Tom

I think I caught the underlying message, or maybe I’m just “reading” something into it? As to a review; well done ?! Now that’s live guitar work, not some kind of loop? If so, nice “chops”, nice chops indeed. Tom

I think some work on the segue to make the transition less abrupt. No concrete suggestions unfortunately, but I do think that’s how I would approach it. Not my genre, but you held my interest to the end. Tom

Surely the music and video work well together, and I totally “get” the underlying subject matter. Just not sure how the video and subject matter are linked, but a big A+ all around. Tom

Always a pleasure to hear MrsDaryl. I’m giving the Pickled Fizzies a big bunch of thumbs up! ? ? ? Tom

Firstly, I do believe you’ve got things properly organized now; and btw, you’ve been busy, I am impressed and maybe even a bit envious. Fine guitar work indeed, hopefully he will “take bow”. I actually enjoyed the horse racing, but l’m involved in the equine business.., Yes the echo needs to go, that’s an easy fix. If you stay with the race just let the announcer finish it. Of course, if the video goes a different way, its all moot. I take it you mostly are adding video to your projects, not scoring to video? All in all well done. Fix the end and move on, pretty obvious you have plenty of material. Tom

That’s how I did it. Tom

Randy Just a suggestion, I think I would put each song in a different thread so you can keep the critiques organized. Tom

Very tender, very heartfelt. Good job on the vocal harmonies. Love the guitar tone! Mix sounds well balanced here; its a wrap as far as I'm concerned. More! Tom

Gorgeous!

Well thank you Steve, I really appreciate the kind words. And thank you Makke for the kind comments and taking the time. Tom

I don't know if I'm breathless or speechless... Keep it up Jesse, keep it up! Tom

GAS got the better of me, I'm "all in"... T

All right! Some interesting guitar and bass work. Married the synth and vid to it well. Overall mix sounded good, loud but not "squished"; well done. Not exactly my genre, but all good. So is it a subset of metal? Tom
