Glad I'm Not Standing In His Shoes

    It sounds quite nice here mix sounds reasonably balanced and come across quite well.  Perhaps a little more volume on the vox in some places but that is probably subjective.  I also wondered if some backing vox on the chorus might also add something again just a subjective thought.
     
    Thanks for sharing.

    Wookie, I do have a second part in the chorus, admittedly quite a bit under, kind of on purpose lol, but thanks, maybe I should bump it up.
     
    And Rik, Thank you, the whole solo is double tracked but in that lick the guitar on the right is displaced a 16 note later creating a harmony part. Can you say happy accident :)

    Man -- I love this number.  It is one rhythm heavy song and I am a nut for rhythm based songs.  Your vocal style is perfect for a song of this style.  Very cool video also, with some interesting effects.

    Really like the bass part, providing a sure and hypnotic undercurrent to a nice song + great video, good job! 
     
    Best Wishes.

    Thanks for the positive comments :).  
     
    Interestling enough, I find when I see and hear the vid off of youtube here, it looks good and sounds good (knowing full well nothing is perfect).  Over the weekend I was rehearsing with our band elsewhere, and when we gathered around the resident computer for a viewing. I was not impressesed with the visual or the sound.
     
    We really must remember the varience in systems. I think we all know that with audio, but it's equally important with video as well. 
     
    Do we mix for cell phones now? And with video how many small details totally disappear on a phone.  I'm not complaining, just becoming aware. The world evolves as the world evolves, we simply must meet it and adjust as needed.

    Cool tune. Nice video work.  I tried to not watch it so I could listen more to the music.
     
    Have you ever thought about putting a Johnny Winter tribute band together....? That would be kinda fun, and yeah, you got the look going on..... you just need to grow that white hair a few more inches.
     
    I enjoyed the song.

    Loved it Wayne. Don't make fun of the backing singer, he's doing a good job. I thought the mix was sublime, wish I could extract that kind of mix from my recordings, I'm jealous. Both the sound and video came through great this end.

    Steve did you notice the blowing hair after the flyby?  Peformed with a Shop vac on the blower side...
