There's a lot to like about this song.  The mix weaves cool textures with interesting melodies and chord changes.  You made very good use of the SI drums which gives this song a nice groove all the way through.  The guitar and harmonica tracks are just right.  The only thing that stands out to me is that the mix is quite warm; to use a cooking analogy, the sauce is very buttery.  A db or two boost around 10k may or may not enhance this.  Still, it is good as is!

Larry, nice bass track moving things along esp at intro
The harmonica surprised me.
Seems like things kind of meandered in the middle but you pulled it thru.
This might be one of the best I've heard from you.

This is of the quality of the Windham Hill label.  Very professional.  Relaxing and contemplative.

Great job, Larry! Nice production and performance, very smooth textures and vibe. And hey, live harmonica! What else could we ask for? ???

Thanks Ross. The harmonica was live but took numerous takes and edits. Cheers????
