Enjoyed this throwback tune very much, Freddy... good one!  Feel better, and good luck with any further treatments.

Freddy, you got some good advice above.  As always, your tunes make me smile, and this is no exception.  Keep up the good work.

Please pardon me for not responding individually.  In my brief respite between treatments I took the opportunity to go out of town for a while and I wanted to respond as quickly as possible.
Thanks to all who responded.  I very much appreciate the comments and I got the message loud and clear.  I have adjusted the EQ on the drums to get more "snap" out of the snares (not re-posted yet).  This is one of those songs that I was working on when my system crashed and I lost my working files.  Sooo, I was essentially trying to master the mix that I could salvage.  I couldn't tease out the individual tracks.  In order to fix the delay issues I am going to have to re-record this number.  I will probably not get this done and post it until after I compete my last med. treatment. 
 
Thanks for all of your kind well-wishes.  The prognosis looks good.
 
Best Regards,
Freddy J

Hope all goes well Freddy. Yeah, a little less reverb on the lead vocal and it will be just creamy.

Thanks Wayne I appreciate it.  I'll get a re-do done in a few weeks.

I like the vibe too. And am in agreement with the above comments. As it stands at the moment the songs sounds small. Need to get those drums sounding alive. I l love verb, but even for me it's making your track sound distant.
A few small fixes and the production of this piece could be move out of the basement and straight onto centre stage.
 
Keep up the vibes. :)

Thank you Gus.  I appreciate the input -- all are great suggestions.  I am about done with a complete re-recording incorporating as many of the suggestions as I am able to do.
 
Hi Makke.  Thanks for listening and I appreciate your kind comments.

Thanks to everyone who made suggestions.  As I mentioned above this was a song that I did a while ago but when my system crashed I lost the working files.  I thought I could salvage it but unfortunately not.  So I have done a complete re-recording incorporating as many of the suggestions of which I was capable.  The vocals have been recorded with a bunch less verb.  The guitar lead was also recorded with very little verb.  I am using drum loops and tried to EQ them as best I could and even tried FX on them.  I think that I have a bit more snap on the snare but given my limited capabilities I am not sure that I can get any more out of them.
 
I hope that this sound better than my attempt at restoration.
 
Thanks again for your suggestions.
