Wow, this was very ambitious but you pulled it off nicely. I usually approach instrumentals with some reserve but this one definitely got my attention and kept it throughout. For me it had a seventies-eighties TV show theme quality to it. Gotta say the steel guitar was the star for me, but it was 'all good', as they say.

Thanks for having a listen and for your kind comments Ronnie.
I agree with you about Paul Franklin; he is a gem.

Nice! Guitars sound really good, especially that opening guitar. All the instruments sound great actually.

But the star here is the production and the arrangement, really well done!

Mix sounds great also, good job.

WOW, what great use of RTs!

You had me from the first measure! Love those horns! The stops were perfect also. Super mix!

Thanks TuneMonger for your comments. For those of us who don't sing, instrumentals are our main creative outlet so I'm glad you got past your 'reserve' about instrumentals and enjoyed my piece.

Thanks for your comments Mario. I agree those horns set the song up really well.

Mike,
nice fast tune you composed. Some very cool passages and detail. Nice work!

I would point two things that caught my attention. I think Horns can be a little louder. Also a transition at 1:20 from piano to guitar might need some sort of accent, a drum roll or held note? Thank you for sharing!

Misha.

Missed this the first time around. Glad I got a chance to hear it this time around.

Exactly as described: upbeat, toe-tapping country instrumental.

I was completely sold on the Electric Sunburst. Nicely done!

This was really fun to listen to. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

That is a fun one!

Obviously there's that driving rhythm throughout and everything complements, but I wonder if the drums couldn't be a bit louder.

And yes, those guitars are sweet, but I really like what you did with the piano - it sits perfectly. Good job.

Be well.
