Oh  yeah.....

Oh how sweet is this, love it Bat's, such a beautiful blend of acoustic and slide.     

[PhonoBrainer]

Top notch sound quality and chops! Brought me back to some of the early Joe Walsh instrumentals which I loved and still do.

thanks for all your effort on that, very cool outcome.

If it was to bright my Adam's would scream at me, they are very unforgiving when it comes to the top end.  Perhaps let the bottom end breath a little more if anything.

(Feels strange to hear Space follow it)

does this tune even need a drum track?

 

i kinda like it sparse..

but was thinking of adding some cymbal work....

Interesting thought, I honestly didn't notice it did not have a drum track.
Stands on its own just fine; your voice, your production.....

i'm re-mixing this one right now, so it's good to get some feedback.

Tom wants lots of drums, check.

That's a really impressive instrumental - the Taylor sounds excellent. Regarding drums, I don't think it needs them - I like it as is.

[bats brew]

definitely had 'the floyd' in mind when i did this...
not sure where my slide influence comes from,
i like a LOT of slide players...

That is sweet, love the panning and the little reprise right at the end. Great work as always and right on the money.

Very nice....
I enjoy this style of your music.

The acoustic sounds sweet and nice panning too.
I can see the space/stars when you are playing.
