Nice song, great energy in the guitars in particular.
Percussion is a nice choice, and I do like your vocals.
It's great to hear good music being produced in software that's considered by many to be not up to scratch in today's 'gotta have the latest update, world'.

Hey, Rob, I don't think I've heard this one. Is that possible? I like it. I just got a couple new mics to work on my acoustic recording. This is a super well done production. The bass track is wonderful. Everything else is too, but I tend to focus on bass the first couple times through. I really like this one, buddy!! Think I'll listen again.

hey warren! you know, this one is on my "The Time is Magic" album, the one that 'bat's blues' is on..... LOL so, as far as production on this, it is dirt simple. one mic, per track. typically, it is either a AT4033, or a ADK Hamburg, pointed at the point where the neck joins the body, and in the cans, i move around until i hear the sound i want, then i freeze. heheh i set the gain on the mic pre pretty hot, run that signal into a DBX compressor, just kissing the peaks, it adds a lot of color, that's why i use it. out of the DBX and into the sound card. otherwise, i could just as easily set the gain low, and apply compression in the box, but that's not nearly as fun! LOL and it's non-committal... i like commitment.  the bass, is my Carvin LB70, direct into a Sansamp Bass DI, with a little drive on it, again into the DBX, and into the soundcard directly.

You know, I feel so stone age because I don't understand what you guys talk about on these settings, etc. I plug the bass into a JDI Radial DI and into a 1 channel mixer (Berringer) and into the interface. I really should put more time into understanding this stuff. I pretty much worry about writing and am lucky to have Mark mix and fix everything. I have the Time Is Magic CD so maybe I need to listen again. I have , I think, 4 songs on my mp3 player for the mountain and gym. Loves those "BatsBlues". and YES, IT NEEDED TO BE BUMPED! You know, it's funny how few comments songs get on here anymore. A lot of people but only a handful take time to comment on songs. Ahhhhh, maybe I'm wrong. Whaaaaaaattt?

Bat, you are totally dialed in on this mix. I've listened to it six times +, listening for some small hiccup.
Nothing,man. It just glides.
Tight performance, good vocals, awesome tone on the guitars.
I really like that Knopfleresque riff at 3:29.
Nicely done.

Yes, it is. Great energy, nice pickin'. Is there some kind of "preverb" as the vocal sweeps in? Sounds great, whatever it is. You managed to play like a jazz virtuoso and still make a rockin' record. Slick!

As per usual, top notch delivery and production. Great guitar riff, plenty of energy.

You know I enjoy your tunes.... this is no exception... so as the song was ending, I went downstairs for a few minutes and came back up to hear Interstate Sun..... that is one of my favorite DP songs of all time....and they have a lot of really, really good stuff..... your cover is impeccable. As good or better (dare I say that?) than the band itself.
I saw DP one time.... after Blackmore left. Bolan was on guitar that evening.

thanks beagle, i can't imagine which yes song it would be, but that's cool that it reminds you of something that cool, i dig the early old yes stuff, anything prior to DRAMA...... an AT4033, about a foot and a half away, pointing near the base of neck joint, thru a cleanish preamp, and a bit of squish on it.

heheh, thanks larry.... i appreciate that sentiment! the effect, is actually a vocal track, copied and reversed, and shifted and blended in just as the first regular vocal kicks in..... it worked like a charm. and this is an easy thing to do....

whack, i don't think there is any percussion or cymbal in that effect, it's all reversed vocal, i had to find a point at the end of that first word, to get that 'attack' part of the wav file, so it almost sounds like the edge of a stick on a cymbal.... thanks for listening
