I think the drums sound good. I've listened to so many songs here in the last few days here I honestly can't remember what was up with them originally. The snare has a nice pop that doesn't offend. Don't know about you but drums are such a struggle for me. I will take this oppurtunity to comment on the picked guitar in the backround. It's great and I love what happens at the 1:00 minute mark with the guitar.

Another thumbs up from me for your superb guitar work and the wonderful tones you get from them.

The new drums give this track the power it needed and is a huge improvement.  Agree that some panning would make them sound less enclosed though.

This is a great track Mark. 

The new version sounds excellent Mark. 

Revision 3

Lead partitions are a treat to follow (especially since the additions). You really squeezed some convincing tones. Sounds great over here also (JBL LSR 4326).

Hi marcos69, this is a great song with great guitar playing that gets even better toward the end, really nice buildup.
I like the fact that you have a really catchy theme and great solo in the same song.Reminded me somehow of the miami vice tune and this would make a great themesong  for an action movie.

Now, this is guitar orchestrations the way I envision it ... tones and rhythms merging and morphing together, building up, cascading into ... a guitar symphony ... with perfect ear tolerance ... all in noble unison and harmony!

Extremely well excecuted and mixed, to my crony ears.
 
EDIT: Marcos, I'd be extremely honored for you to solo a section or 2 for a melancholy (gentle love-broken) piece I'm starting to 'give-birth-to'.  If interested, please pm me.

Big thanks J. C., Frank, morenoise, Tom, Phillip and Bobby

Phillip, of course I'll play on your song.

Mark,
  Great tune with a lot of melodic oomph to it!  The bass is very cool and the drums work very well.  I like how you stepped a little outside the box on a few lead parts but still brought home the bacon with our signature sounds.  Very nice ramp up at 2:57, smokin stuff man!

Janet -

1.  You can play them back to back if you click play all.  Unless it is cutting off on you which it does sometimes.

2.  I have.

3.  I have doubly.


Tony - thanks, I had a lot of trouble getting the bass I was after, but I think I've got it figured out now.  The part at 2:57 was an after thought that I recorded in on my last mix.  I think it pulled it all together.

Bill - thanks, it took a lot of trimming frequencies to get those parts to stand out right.  It actually took re-recording a lot to get the mud out.  I even switched guitars to get what I needed.  I think it was worth it though for the final result.  Thanks for commenting.

Holy cow!!  Probably my favorite Marcos tune!!  This falls into my favorite category "SLINKY".  I mean this:  I REALLY LIKE THIS".  Now, I do have to fall in with that other crusty old bass player (Bapu), I think the bass should be a little fuller.  I wish I had the skills to say add this remove this, but I don't.  The tone might very well be what you  are looking for but I feel the bottom could be a little more "there" with a fuller bass sound.  Doesn't matter, I thin this is right up there with Rob's (Batsbrew) The Time is Magic for a great instrumental.  I sure wish I could feel that bass in my gut.  I'm using the same phones I usually use so....  Well, HOT tune.  You cretainly are a premiere player, Mark!!! 

Hey Warren, thanks a bunch.  I'm not sure what else I could do for the bass.  I'm open to suggestions.


Hey vechung,  Thanks for the listen.  I've never been compared to Phil Keaggy before.  I'll take that as a huge compliment.

Thanks Larry.  I completely redid the bass.  And I cranked it too.
