New song "Running From The Reaper"

Finished the final mix last night. It's a coincidence I'm posting this on Halloween night!

    Great song, enjoyed every part of it, especially the clarity and definition on every instrument and how great the work together.
     
    Thanks for sharing.

    First off, I'm a fan of this style of music since forever, and it's a joy to hear this.  It brings to mind some of the greatest music from the day.  Great production and performance.  Very entertaining!!
     
    p.s. I just visited your site and it's very impressive.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Beautifully done! This is a great recording and mix...very professional sounding. You've got a great voice (I wish mine was half as good), and the instrumentation is perfect for this song. Two thumbs up!

    The intro threw me off a little, thinking um, OK...  Then "the band" kicked in and I thought "Ohhh... OK this sounds really good!".       Great mix, really clear and crisp.   And everything is well played, vocals sound great.    Love the Rhodes parts...     Guitar solo too - simple but effective.
