Superb vocal. (J - Stamp!)
Super production and awesome mix. (B - Stamp!)
Tasty guitar. (T - Stamp!)

A good story write. (I take it that's still working out?... smile )

Very cool band.

Your songs always really stick in my head. There's another...

Lovely guitar work - not easy playing with a capo at the 12th fret - great mix and sound, strong lyrics and of course a beautiful vocal with some lovely harmonies.

Another top notch composition.

Peter


We appreciate that Peter! Thanks for mentioning the harmony...I spent a little more time than usual mixing it.

Lovely song Janice and Bud. Just loved your lyrics and just a super vocal. Toms guitar was so complimentary to the song. Super mix Bud. Loved it

Perfect write, mix and delivery - absolutely pro all the way!

A little of the Byrds, with all the goodness of Janice & Bud.
Excellent work.

Robert


Thank you Robert. I had not thought of the Byrds but, yep, Tom’s guitar definitely adds a bit of that.

Thanks David. I was listening in our vehicle the other which has a sub and I thought the same about the kick...hmmmm perhaps a few db's too much.

Do I also need to mention that the guitar and vocals are great? Ice is cold...as long as we are mentioning things that are REALLY obvious.

Great job all!


Thank You!! Really glad to hear the word “catchy.” We were hoping for something of that ilk and upbeat. Unlike some of my more Southern Gothic vibes.

We always appreciate hearing from you.

J&B,

Great intro. Don’t know why, but had a Jimmy Buffet feel to me--but still unique and fresh. It works great. Wonderful vocals and a nice melody. My only thought would be to try to rhyme “fedora” with someone more than “adores her”—even just one time to serve as a change up on the rhyme. Just my two cents, but a very cool listen.

Kind regards,

Deej

Really wonderful collaboration!
Tom's guitar work is great.
And it is surprising twice that it is the Tele capoed at the twelfth fret and fingerpicked.
As John said, I also love the 'Linda Ronstadt' vocal delivery.
Beautifully engineered and produced.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi


We appreciate your comments Shigeki. Thanks for the very nice remarks about the vocal!

My only suggestion would be to take the 12 string guitar track and hammer it with a good compressor & add a little top end to bring out some chime - it'd be Byrdsian then. Alternately add a strummed 12 string with the same compressor/EQ treatment to get chime happening - that'll go well with Tom's work.


Hey Ray, love your description of the vocal and glad you like the tune. When I get caught up, I'll try your suggestions on the 12 string. Most guitar processing is above my pay grade but I'm game. Thanks!

PS Byrdsian is good smile
