Thanks to all of you again, I really appreciate such positive feedback, especially since I posted this 4 weeks ago.
It makes me feel comfortable to share more of my work online, which I haven't done much in the past.
A lot of comments about the bass, and how it really drives the feel of the song . . . I'm just trying to duplicate what my bass player did years back, the bass is actually orange tree samples "cherry bass" . . . it replicates the way it was originally played with a palm muted punchy staccato idea, kind of like a low end picked guitar.
