A collab with Eric Camburn...well, actually, its Eric Camburn with me making a footnote.
Wonderful Guys...Beautiful tune. Love the piano, was that your work Phil?? Come on...don't be shy...
Great soundscaping, really first class listen.
OK, here we go. ::Will PET PEEVE:: Feel free to tell me to go screw myself if you like:
Around 2:25, 2:42, 2:51 you have drums playing straight 8ths on hi-hat, then a light tom fill. Know where I mean? Uhm, most drummers I've met have two hands. OK, one I've met had three but he's in a different business now, something to do with porn movies, I dunno...
Anyway, if you've ever played drums, you might realize that if there's going to be a tom fill then the hi-hat needs to, uhm, STOP so that the poor mortal drummer with only two hands can move sticks from hat to toms. You COULD continue with hat on the 8th notes, but it would have to be pedal hat, which is a different sound.
Just a thought, I have played drums for so long that when I hear something that really can't be done by one person then it just jumps out at me like one of B's alligators.
On the other hand, if that's the only beef I have with a tune then you know it's first class work...
