Well this one passed me by ,  loved the tablas , it sounded to me like one whole thing was a live friday night jam everyone looking at at another to take their lead , yeah after a productive practice in the rehearsal rooms just about enough time left for a jam session , great stuff really liked it cheers

Wow, I really like this song!  Your vocal is very strong and convincing and well performed.  This has a retro vibe, yet a modern sound.  A little less reverb would make this sound closer to the listener and more intimate, but I like reverb, so it belongs regardless.  Good songwriting!

Hi Lynn ,  and thanks for those encouraging comments ...now I´m really confused !!!  , totally agree with you all on the over the top reverb so Ive calmed it down  and re-mixed  Ived re recorded the  bass in parts and I´m now rewriting and  recording some of the vocals ... I´m shocked and suprised by some of the response to this one as I was going to delete  and bin it convinced it was a pile of  ..doggy doo doo .....and said so much  on another forum so it really does go to show that I know absolutely nothing about the stuff I do.....  cheers ...still confused

Just loved it  I wish I could do something so funky and professional like that , So it seems I´ll have stick to my three chords that I learnt way back when cheers great

Yeah there´s a lot in there alright loved the vocals , at times it jumped out at me, great recording , at times maybe a few too many effects/panning , but still a great song cheers

Hi Rex, such a pleasant change to hear someone singing with their own voice rather than  trying to copy someone else , super vocals ,lovely song,excelent job thanks  one of the best Ive heard for a very long time cheers

Well I´m stumped on how you did such a great video , the whole thing was really  good , great guitars   ``you gorra have some´´ 

Like the chord changes , melody just flows  ..cheers like the intruments  whatever they are there´s alot in there but not jumbled yep good stuff

Yes like this a lot , nice clean guitar tones , with just the right amount of tremolo clasic cheers

Oh those girls just love cosmetics .....Re-mix bottom of the page .

Barry your voice really cuts through and has so much character ,life expirience , and clarity , I always look forward to see what you have in store and once again I´m not dissapointed , a bit slide wouldnt go a miss in the bridge methinks  .great song cheers

Great vocals, reminded me a bit like ``Yes ´´  great guitar , and all in all just bloody great 

I liked this , i thought the vocal was more than fine ,and the slight build up really gave it an atmosphere , on second play I loved the chord change on ``you and me´´ and  then I thought the whole song should have been built up from there,...... left me thinking one could do more with it .. vocals hit the spot

Hi chaps , well as it says on the packet,  the last mixdown , cheers .

Hi Noylekker , welcome to the party  all the crisps have been eaten and there´s only warm red wine, a piece of uneaten cheese and half a cracker, you mentioned my warmth method , well I would love to wax lyrical on all my secret tips, tricks and technical prowess, unfortunately I´ll have to dissapoint you,  as its all  rather hit and miss with me,  what is evident though by all the comments (which spur me on no end) a lot is down to personal taste , so thanks for your nice comments, and all the others, this is a great forum with really nice members , there is a re-mix on the way maybe make a comparison cheers

Hi there t , nice to hear that someone else has the similar  issues, On a new song I´m writing I´m trying to get a clean strat sound (bridge and middle pick up tone) using the TH3 but to no avail  Ive tried it with all the different  speaker emulations but they sound so  muddy no bite and clarity , i´ll post the next mix down this week so keep em`´ peeled ,  cheers 

Great changing rythum guitars , slide hits the spot , its all over the place makes you wanting more cheers

Hi 53 ,The mic I use is the AT3525 it must be at least 10 -15 years old , I think on this recording I was concentrating on too many things at once and getting away from basic`s...... well just trying to be more clever than I am, Ive now done one more mixdown and I´ll post it later  , I feel Ive opened up pandoras box  and I´m just confusing the issue and using too many effects , and clouding my judgment , Ive taken all the comments above into account  and hopefully ironed some of them out.  thanks for your input guys cheers

Well I´m using Audio Technica condenssor mike   ane I turned down the vocals  towards the end as they were a bit too lively  I do concure as far as the drums amd bass are concerned  , I should `ve once again taken a bit more time on mixdown . cheers for listening

With all its boomyness its got its own character  I imagine it as  a backing  track for a countryside scene or maybe a a boat sailing down a river at sunset ....  cheers 

Great track would have liked to hear some backing vocals .. to fill out a bit

Yes very Zapparish but in a great way `` but I`ve got the crystal ball´´ I like it a lot,  really well done. great guitar tone 

Groovy tune,  so clear  , I can hear so many influences in there , nice one

Hi chaps ,  I had a lot of response  help and advice on the first outing of this song (cheers Gary) after much more work I did another (5) mixdowns and sort of deceided on this one , ..I´m still not sure ...the vocals are not too electric and the overall recording isnt soo edgy as the first , once again thanks to garybrun for sterling work and advice cheers all........ps   I had to re-upload the track to soundcloud as the first didnt have the fade out ending for some reason...Oh happy days

Just great clear tones  super playing 

Well done that man , I could listen to that all day
