'Quiet Cotswold Madness'

Hello folks.
 
New instrumental (almost) from me. Big thanks once again to Ed Kocol (Bapu) for providing bass.

Very nice subtle chord stuff going on there James - great playing by yourself and the big bottomed one.
I used to live pretty close to the Cotswolds and it never sounded like that - more yuppies than yokels these days   

Thanks Daryl. Yes, it's all rock stars and royalty 'dowun by thurr' these days  Part of the reason I moved to Scotland, couldn't afford to move house where I grew up.

Very nice James (and Ed)!
 
Nice job getting Frampton on the intro
 
That kick sure is deep...
 
I really like the changes introduced throughout, and the arp fits in really well.
 
There is one spot at 1:16 where the lead sort of doubles and gets louder than I think it should be.
 
Love 2:30...and the return at 3:01...quite noice.
 
Regards,
Dan

My mayte Jaymes is always flashing my bottom on many of his choons.
 
Fanks for the invite mayte. Next time I'll properly let you know when my work is done.

My pleasure Ed, you always come up with the goods.

Nice...   Your phrasing throughout is well done.  I really liked the guitar harmonies.  And the vocal snippets are a trip!
Oh, and the bottom end (both kick and bass) is deep - in a good way. 
 
If I had one nit it would be that the drums are somewhat static.   Maybe a bit more variation?

Thanks Steve, finding that Cotswold dialect poem was quite a coincidence, I couldn't resist using it  Yes, drums..I'm still getting used to AD2. Will get there on the next track perhaps.

Gents,
 
Sounds really good.   I like how you wrapped the synth lead around the guitar parts as well..  Very Framptom'ish as someone pointed out.   Good listen:)
 
Had a look at some pics of the Cotswold countryside while listening,  what a beautiful area.
 
Regards

Thanks Mark, much appreciated. Very cool that you took the time to check out my birthplace too. I miss it

Good playing both of you! I liked the part 2 min in the song. Well balanced mix.

Thanks Lasse!

Great job. I liked all about it. Mix was good imo.

Very cool indeed!  Good playing by both you and the Master Bassist.  I like the way that the synth comes in and out to complement the guitars.  Of course the vocal is icing on the cake.
Well done lads!

Jaymes, did you replace me?

Thanks Freddy! I like to use synths and guitars in harmony/unison occasionally, makes for interesting textures.

Dig it.  Tune is inventive and sustains interest.  Nice idea throwing in the little spoken bits.  I like the bridge change  about 2:30 in. Mix is flawless.  Great.
