Stephen-Nitecap-June -09

Post by Stephen »

Soundclick is all screwed up!
They've tried to upgrade, and obviously have some serious issues, but hopefully I've succeded in uploading this.

There was more time to create this one, Mother nature, and band situations gave me a whole 3 days to put this together.
This version is the third, and hopefully final, so it has gone through some changes.
Comments welcome, as always.

OO, nice ending. I like this jazzier side of you. I wouldn't nit this at all other than I would like a bit of lead or melody earlier, seems to take too long for the lead to come in. And some places in the middle there seems to be some competition between the bass and some other sounds that seem to be sharing too much of the same space, but only in a minor way. Overall this is a nice jazzy playful romp letting different lead instruments do their thing. If you don't change this anymore, no big deal. I'm enjoying as is.

Hi Stepehen,

I like this track very much. Very jazzy and soulful, cool! Sunny afternoon music, sitting on the grass at the back door enjoying the sun and the music.

Well done

I worked on the seperation thing quite a bit, but maybe it needs some more effort.
As for the lead, my thinking was that the organ, and the EP, are doing solos, so I saved the guitar for last.
I appreciate the comments.

Thank you Joe, I love it when someone gets a mental picture from one of my songs.
I'm glad you like it.

Hi Stephen...

Really cool and smooth with a nice swing feel....I agree, the melody might have entered sooner... but you likely had a good reason for the way you did it... and it does g cause a certain expectancy to develop....

I found the balance to be great... The organ was also very nice !! Takes me back !!! Bass sounded very near a walk in places as well as the vox in the break area.... I LOVE this one!!

Great!!! John
