A Worried Mind (Another Attempt At Correcting the @#$*!!!??@** Mix On This Song)

Hey Freddy,
  Sounds pretty good man. I think the kick needs a kick in the butt, you can feel the bass line more and only hear the kick if that makes sense.  I think it needs a bit more low end.
  The vocal effect does it a little challenging to make out some of the lyrics.  Maybe just back it down a hair?

Freddy,
I was not sure I liked the vocal treatment, so I listened a second time.
It works for your song. Maybe drop the bass a db and raise the kick a couple db.
Rock on!

Chuck, Reese, Bruce, and Ron --- Great feedback!  Thanks!  I have made the suggested corrections by all:  1)  I put more bottom on the kick (I hope not too much) and brought the drum more forward, 2)  the vocal effect (or in this case maybe affect?) has been dumped --- what I was doing might work but on another song - not this one; 3)  dropped the bass down a bit; and 4) tried to fix the snare (??? not sure it worked ??).  Thanks again for the advice.

cool lyrics... some of your phrasing needs attention to timing so it flows easier..
I'd back off just a bit on the vocal effect too... neat tune Freddy...

 Nice tune! To me the tune sounded like it was mixed like the old motown. Not super boosted like a lot of todays music,and maybe that's the vibe you wanted? You could modernize it with some bass and backing off the reverb if you wanted to. Nice arrangement.

Loved the organ riffs on this Freddy!! Nice one.

I haven't been able to get on the forum much last week --- so, I have been late in responding to your comments.  My apologies.  I very much appreciate your comments and suggestions.  Your suggestions are valid and I have tried to incorporate them into correcting this number. 
 
I find it interesting that with some songs everything seems to go to your satisfaction the very first time you finish it but with some others it seems that it will never sound right.  This is another attempt at getting this doggone song correct or at least near correct.  I don't want to toss this number (I like the intent of it) but trying to get the mix right is about to put me in a rubber room. 
 
Anyway, I appreciate your input and have used it to make this latest attempt at a corrected mix.  I would be grateful if you might give it another listen and give me your suggestions once more on this iteration.
 
Thanks a million.

Freddy,

This is a really cool tune. 

Only crit is some of your lead vox phrasing seems cluttered (too many words/syllables).

Mix is spot on.

Yeah... cool tune. 

I'd place it in the rockabilly genre.... leaning a bit towards blues and jazz in a subtle way. 

Listening on the computer speakers....sounds OK to me. 

Good one, Fredster.  I'm on the headphones and not the monitors.  Everything sounds pretty cool.  Maybe a tad less vocal reverb, but that's to taste.  Good job on this!

Cool tune Freddy, I really enjoyed. Nice sounding production as well.

This is weird - I was sure I already commented on this last week. Anyhow, it all sounds pretty good to me - might be inclined to bring the vox slightly more forward, but wouldn't change much else.

Freddy, you've been busy. You've done a bunch of songs I haven't heard yet. I like this one too. You play keys just a little better than I do. Good groove, fun song. But, seriously, aren't you ready to release a cd yet?
