Bob, sounds great. Very professional sounding.

Yay I found something to suggest.
 
That into line at the first break (0:43 - 0:51) could use a splash of verb? To me sounds too naked against the drums with the verb.
 
That's all I got Bobster.
 
Excellent as always.

There's a thin blue line between a pat and a patsy. Bapu is the one keeping us out of trouble

I love it, Bob-O!
Guitars sound amazing and the vocals sit perfectly in the mix.

Hi, J.S.,
 
Thanks for trying to listen to the song and for checking out my other stuff on the website, and your kind words!
 
To hear the song, just Click on the Photo directly to the right of the Bold White Text and Arrow that says "NEW TEST MIX UP----------------------> , or the Song Title :Thin Line" at the Top of the MP3 Player, right under the Yellow text where it says "TEST MIXES" .  NOTE: If your on your cell phone, you may not be able to see the MP3 Player, depending on your mobile carrier, phone brand, and mobile browser settings.  Sorry about that, I'm in the process of revamping my entire website to get ready for my new release that's coming in a few weeks, so the new site will be fully mobile responsive soon.
 
Hope that helps, and thanks again for trying to listen to the song, and commenting, greatly appreciated!
 
Best Wishes,
Bob

Hey Bob.  I'm glad to see you back on the forum.  This song is up to your usual standards ---- that is powerful, ballsy, excellent performance, and professionally done.
Great stuff!!!!

The Scorpions called, they want to know how you have done kick-ass guitars better than them.
 
Crits, not many, but drum programming might stand a bit more editing, for example around 2:08
 
Also, I'd vote for the vocal more up front in the mix - as is, it sounds a little like he's singing from behind the Marshall stack.  :)
 
very very nice!

Hi, Rik,
 
It's really great to see you back on the forum, and thank you so much for giving this a listen and your very encouraging comments!
 
LOL, you know it's really funny, that intro riff you mentioned that runs throughout the whole song, I had just changed my guitar strings on one of my PRS's and I was noodling around stretching them out to break them in, and that riff hit me like a lightning bolt to the brain instantly, along with the song title, power chord progression and vocal melody.  I've never ever really tried to write a song in my life.  They've always just hit me like a flash, everything at once, while I'm doing normal things like reading a book or news article, watching a movie or TV show, looking out a window or sitting in traffic, this time it was just stretching out new guitar strings!  It started when I was 13 years old, but I thank my lucky stars everyday since then.
 
Anyway thanks again for listening and commenting, truly appreciated, my friend!
Bob

Hey, Mesh,
 
How are you, brother? Hope you're having a great week!
 
Major thanks for checking this out for me and for your excellent input and great suggestions!
 
Tonight at around 3:a.m. I'm planning on trying out your ideas about thickening up the chorus vocals, and also your idea about a background vocal pad, I've got a pretty high range and did the high harmonies above the female singers in several of my cover bands for many years, so I think I'll give it a try to see if I can fit something else into the pretty dense mix.  Hopefully, I'll have some sort of new mix incorporating everyone's suggestions posted tomorrow or the next day.
 
Sincere thanks for always listening and contributing great input and ideas on my stuff, I'm truly grateful for your observations and suggestions!
 
Have a good one, Mesh!

Hey, Ed, what's happening, buddy?  Hope you're doing great!
 
LOL, As agent Maxwell Smart used to say, "Thanks, I needed that!".   Since I first started mixing this song, there was something odd nagging me about it, (NOT a NagBap!) but I couldn't for the life of me put my finger on it!  You dug deep and pointed it out to me, and BAM!!! that was exactly it!  Later tonight I'm going to stick a send on that "bone dry" intro guitar riff track that runs throughout the whole song, and shoot it to my guitar reverb bus.  Man, sometimes it's the simple little details that get lost in the big picture of a mix that can drive you crazy!  I should have the revised mix addressing everybody's input posted by 4 or 5 a.m. East Coast time.
 
Seriously, I can't thank you enough, something in the mix was driving me crazy and I just could not detect what it was until your comment.  It's that kind of observations and attention to details that makes this forum such a valuable tool and great place to keep learning this stuff!
 
Mucho gracias, Bapsi, 'Yer a true gentleman and a scholar!
 
Have a great night!
Bob
