Imagine

Imagine is now on Reveberbnation. This is a song I wrote after finishing a book about the Beatles visit in 1964

I just finished a remaster of it using Sonar 8.5, and two new plugins

Check it out at

    Well done Terry - I thought the mix could have used more punch, if that makes sense - not sure.  Enjoyed the song.

    The bass and instruments are good. The tune of the song is nice. The recording and mix are well done.

    Cool song and the vocals sit really well in the mix.  Love the bass line, it really keeps the toes tappin' and the song moving along.  Good job!

    You're quite a Beatle fan.  You definetly evoke early Beatle essence through your songs.  Well done.

    Nicely done, definitley has a Beatle influence to it, the mix is nice and clear well done.  I thought the vocals could come up just a bit they get lost at times in the mix.  Nice enjoyable listen!

      The orchestration of this is just plain awesome! If you can't whistle a tune then it's not worth hearing is what I have always been told when it comes to music, and this tune stuck in my head and I can't help but whistle along with it when I hear it.

    Thanks Terry, you caused me to have a whistling problem!!!!!

    I say that in a good way though,

    This is a great tune, thanks for taking the time to post it to be heard,

    Bobby

    Hey Terry. This is really good. Your vocals in the beginning evoke a touch of spiders from mars and fits like a glove to this song. I liked the strings and the song has just the right amount of sugar on the top. This song sounds dated in the most welcome and best way possible.

    Terry,

    Your best mix to date.  Nice arrangment and bass line is just right.  Vocals remind me of Gerry and the Pacemakers.
