Some may remember the original ballad version of this song with the inimitable Robby doing an incredible job on the vocals.  As time passed I found myself wanting to do a more 'rock-like' version of my tune, so we assembled the troops and this is what we came up with.  Special thanks to the guys for some super performances.
It's the top song at: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=1050818&content=music
Dave (QuantumEffect) Carlson- Drums
Ed (Bapu) Kocol- Bass
Daryl (Daryl1968) Greenway- Piano and Background Vocals
Danny (Danny Danzi) Danzi- Elec. Rhythm  and Lead Guitars and Production
Phil (Philz) Doyle- Acoustic guitars and lead vocals
 
Any and all comments are appreciated.  Thanks for listening.

Nice solid tones in this one!  Would love to hear that snare a little hotter to "drive" the tune....make it rock.  Are the vocals a little buried around the 2:40 mark?  Maybe a little louder would drive the tune home for the ending.  Just my humble opinion here.
 
Nice collab!!!

Agree with Tony on the snare. There are a lot of good tones in this. Guitars sound just a touch hot here.
The drums sound great and are really played well.

Good band gathered around you here Phil, sounds OK here, perhaps the tweaks noted by others will just put that extra polished shine on a it.
 
Thanks for sharing Phil around of applause to all the band.

Sounds really good here. I think it could use a little more punch on the drums, but I like the way the kick sits overall. Really takes off when the electrics come in, and you can tell it was mixed by a guitar player
 
Regards,
Dan
