I don't think I'd change much about this if it were mine (I only wish I could sing like that).  I really liked it!
 
If I were to do anything, I'd almost want to try a low pitched percussion part holding down a kick drum role. I'm not sure which drum it usually is - tabla? djembe? - but it's low pitched and often has a slight pitch-bend to it.

Nice 'front to back' 3-D feel to this mix Rob, sounds really nice to me., you've got loads of space in and around the acoustics and I like the vocals sitting back slightly where they are, takes me back (also) to early Yes, Moody Blues, that kind of thing.


thanks for listening, james....
yes, this original mix is less in the face,
and more 'around you'
 
i'm trying a newer 'in your face' mix,
but may go back to the original

I remember this one from before. I loved it then and love it now.
Excellent guitar and vocal performances. Nice subtle percussion.
Guitars sound perfectly eq'd and the vocal sits just right in-between.
Great stuff
 


hey daryl,
so you don't have a problem with the 'wide' mix, then?
seems to be an issue with some people,
i've tried mixing it both ways, i can roll either way...

djembe,
that'd probably do!
heheh, 
i could almost go mid east/india with the percussion on this....
that would work.

Cool - that's sorta the vibe I was getting.
