I spent a couple of hours remixing one of my favorite classic rock tunes...
 
HOLD YOUR LIGHTERS UP!!
 
It's at the top :-)

49 bye byes...
There's actually a lot going on here...
 
I'm playing and singing everything.
Lots of vocals? Lots going on with the drums, the keys? You should listen :-) LOTS of work went in to it...
 
Playing the e-bow! Gotta love an e-bow ;-)
 
Playing the bass, playing all of the guitars, and the Hammond, and the drums (I played every hit)
 
I'm just glad to have my DAW back!! It's been almost 2 months... I know there are haters? I know, and I'm not saying without good reason... But you gotta love this shiz?

What I meant to say was, "I believe I have figured out how to get a half way decent mix?" As Martha Stewart would say? "It's a good thing..."
 
However, I am always open to and willing to accept mix crits.

I didn't realize you had lost your DAW but I'm glad it's back. 
This is a real nice song with a great vibe.
The mix sounds a little thick in the middle EQ with the drums getting buried. Maybe you could EQ the drum tracks to cut through the mix with more high end EQ.???

Scotty, you were right (as usual...) I made many tweaks, mostly made w/the intent to define the drums better in the mix? (thank you) Many other mods as well, I think it's Moe Betta :-)
 
I "played" those drums, so I want them to be heard....

"it's a little loose in places" Kenny? Keep in mind, this is what attracted you to some of the best women you've ever known?
 
But it's a "live" performance (by me) And when I say "live" I admit I comp'ed the guitars, the vocals, the bass... I comp'ed that stuff as we all do. And the drums? They take the longest... I play them? (With the fingers) The guitars, bass, vocals, and keys all come pretty naturally? I sweat the drums...
 
It's pretty tight where it counts bro? (again, with the women... I know? But you can't deny it either?) It's basically a live performance, so you'll here some floating? But tight where it counts...

Robbie, 
it seems that when I stopped playing Rock and started playing Jazz my love life got real simple all of a sudden ….
you ever heard of the ghost of Christmas past , the ghost of Christmas present , and the ghost of Christmas future ?... 
that's what happened to my love life if I substitute the word Christmas for girlfriend  
nowadays , it's all just a bunch of memories or possible future longings and hopes 
 
anyway , that's cool that you played all the parts on your song …did you use a real Hammond ?

Kenny, you are one of the most respected musicians on the forum sir... Not just by me? But by everyone. We all play guitar, but few play it as do you sir...
 
It's a Hammond? But it's sampled, NI's B4, but I did play it? :-) I play the damn keys, I play the bass and guitars, and sing? It's my passion...

Even better than Gould Gnomes, Yoda, and the Wookiee?

"It seems like great production on the arrangement and the playing."


Thanks Mike ;-)
