Hi Ed
Your vocals are hitting it for six (cricket parlance) . I think in the USA you say hitting it out of the park . I could not think of another way to compliment your excellent vox.

Yep , sounding good.

Keep 'em coming Ed (btw do you do requests? Closer Walk with Thee )

cheers
Gary.

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

Thanks, Gary. I have this one, that to my surprise out performed the rest on Drooble. It is instrumental & about time for it to get the vocal track.

Hey, David. it is:
V1 Ch1 -- Instr. Piano
V2 Ch2 -- Instr. G.
V3 Ch3 -- Vocal
If you were to rearrange, what would you? I confess, my arrangements today are based on what I feel are the best takes. Not a good system. Thanks for the comment.

Just because a song falls outside the norms doesn't mean it should be changed. smile

Generally, there's nothing wrong with having a short vocal song. I'd have probably dropped the long instrumental, or put it at the end.

But would it have been an improvement? I wouldn't say that.

I didn't comment because I was complaining, just that I was surprised.

Unless you've got someone who skips your version because they don't find vocals in the first half - and that's not likely a real problem - I see no reason to change it.

Thanks Floyd. Thanks, Scott.
I'm finding a work flow -- do a public domain, do an original. Going with that.

Hi edshaw,

Nice very catchy composition. It is soft in the chosen arrangement. It's pleasant and well done.

Ed,

It’s a pretty arrangement, and your vocal is really strong (though I’m wondering if it should sit back in the mix just a little bit—it’s a little too forward on a couple of notes). I think for me among the best I’ve heard from you.

I do think David has a point about the long “intro”—not sure the casual listener will stay with it (unless they are a fan of instrumentals). Mind you, it works as is. If I were to think about an alternative way to do it, I’d shorten the intro (maybe to 30 seconds or so) and then use the break after the first verse (at 2:32) to go into a longer instrumental, finishing up with that last verse and ending the song just how you do.

As David said, that’s not necessarily an improvement, just a different approach to cater to the dwindling attention span of many of today's listeners.

Good stuff, Ed!

All my best to you,

Deej

Thank you, Greg. There's this undiscovered treasure trove of
