Killer vocal, AT! Every instrument lays in the mix so well. Great job!

Thanks for the listen, everyone.  And yes, it is kinda loosey-goosey and the tempo drifts.  I had the guitarist and bassist play and the singer do a scratch vocal.  Get that "live" feel.  Of course, that just made the bongo player's job hard.
 
Thanks again.

I like the loosey-goosey tempo drift, it sounds REAL and very natural.  Great vocals and nice playing.  Don't like snakes though.

AT , I think you nailed the late 60's lounge vibe w the musical performance …..loose and laid back 
I noticed when I listened to your song soft , the vocals seemed very prominent …( late at night right now )
when I turned up your song loud through the monitors everything gelled a lot better for me …..good job

Thanks all.  I'm glad most get it.  I'll take authentic over perfect most days.  When I heard them play this live I knew that was the vibe.
 
Kenny - yea, it is hard to place a vocal in a fairly sparse piece.  I don't usually mix at rock levels, but still loud.  Still, better to get the vox loud than not enough.  I'm married to the singer ;-)

Hi AT, Yeah , I figured that you were married to the singer …….thats cool…..
I end up doing a lot of my forum listing late at night at the softer conversational volumes …
before I post a comment , a lot of times I will go back and give a song a listen when I can turn it up during the day…..
it sounded good to me ...

nice tune, and a great vox delivery.
great guitar part, the violin patch i don't really care for, but honestly, it's perfect for the genre.
 
i like most all the tones and mix, except the bongos need some high end push for clarity.
 
if the high end was there on them, they would trigger that reverb really nice too, right now they are too dark....
it just muddies the mix at low volume, and you don't have anything in there that is bright,
so you almost have to look at the bongo parts as your 'high end' of your mix.
 
the vox mix could use a bit of 'air' on it, maybe a bit at 10k

Thanks all.  I'll give the bongos  another look (listen?), see if I can get some bite out of it.
 
Thanks again for the listen.
