I'm doing this as a new post because the song has been totally re-worked.  First off I realized that my vocal was just not cutting it on this tune, so I got Gregg Bolger who had done some singing for Ed on his song, Fresh Country, to handle the vocals.  It made a world of difference.  Then, as luck would have it, I was able to get Danny to add some guitar tracks on the song.  As always my good friend Bapu (Ed) put down a premium bass track to help move the tune along.  For those of you that actually listen to lyrics, there's a fun story in there too.  And who says you can't mix a couple of synthesizers with a boogie piano and a rock/blues guitar?

Sounds Good Phil.
 
At least I didn't have to play my part again.

Sounds real nice. If I had to give a crit I would personally start with more organic instrumentation at the beginning and build with the more exciting, synth-y sounds that now start the song, coming in later to kick it up a notch at a time. A plainer start to the song then the lack of self control being characterized by the new sounds being added. Just my take right now, I'm trying to comment more...

Thanks, Ed.  When do you ever have to play your part over?

Hi Phil
 
What a great song! On my second listen now, while I type...
 
Lyrics are great.
 
Mix, as busy as it is, sounds fantastic. Every part has its place.
 
Well put together... I'm assuming that each member had to create their track and send it to you for final mixing?
 
cheers

Nice song and mix. Only thing that didn't quite sound right in my ear was the guitar solo. It was great but sounded a bit like it didn't match the song.
