Nice... Loved the main riff/groove - cool and slinky, and maybe just a little sleazy. Actually reminded me a little of Vai.
Guitars are kickin' as always, and the bass and drums fill the middle nicely. About the only nit I could pick is maybe just a little more width on those vocal harmonies. You know, to balance those wide and chunky guitars.
thanks for listening, stevec....
and yes, SLEAZY was exactly what i was going for!!
vocals:
i gotta check out the original mix on those harmonies...
ususally, i do spread them just a bit...
trying to keep them around center, with everything else floating to the left and right of that...
but, the drums sometimes dicatates how far out i can go with the vocal mix...
i really dig a lot of early rundgren mixes,
as well as the stuff Bill Cooper used to do with 3 dog night...
and they would have vocals panned all the way left or right (a lot of LCR mixing back then, but i still find that ANYWHERE you can pan in the stereo field, is a valid spot)
