Well, looooong time, no see!  Finally got one finished up, thanks to Rik.  Rik (Frieling) started this one and I finally got around to adding to it.  Very sadly, he can hardly play the guitar anymore, so this is even more special to me.  I'd be happy for any production hints (or otherwise), since it's hard enough for me to learn this stuff when I think about it 24/7.  And I guess it's impossible when I only do one song every two years.  :(  I've missed you all!

 March 2, evening...I did some more panning and toned down the keys a bit.

Very nice, Janet.  It's good to hear you and Rik playing together, and it's nice to hear from you again!

Good to hear you playing again Mamabear and also nice to hear Rik, please pass my best to him.
 
This is very pleasant the only thing I would suggest is to pan Rik's guitar a little more to the right to get better separation from the piano.
 
Thanks for sharing both of you.

Good idea...and simple to do, Wookiee.  I'll try that. Thanks!
 
Thanks Reece.  The doctors aren't sure I guess.  :(

Janet this tune made my coffee go down even more smoothly this morning.  Very nice!!  I might have liked to hear some of the strings be on the left to balance it out a bit  (maybe my monitors' levels need checking??), and I agree with Wookie about getting a bit more guitar/piano separation.   Minor stuff.

Thanks very much Tony!
 
And thank you, too, Larry!  Good to see you again.
 
Can anyone give me instructions about exactly how to pan this?  IOW, which instrument should be in the center?  Cello, guitar, piano...
