Hi Walt, I appreciate your comments on this.  I hadn't thought of that perspective, as I was mainly going for a "classic" Fender sound.  Since this is the kind of advice that I look for, I will consider that on the next evaluation.  Sounds like a quick adjustment.  I was looking for a Tony Levin approach, but I don't know if I got anywhere near that level.

I really like this song Lynn! Very cool tune. The mix sounds fine to me...It all comes down to what you like at this point. I don't hear anything that leeps out as needing fixed. Congrats on the finished work. It always feels good to end one and start something new.

I'm digging the remix Lynn. Good job. The vox are pretty far up-front? Maybe a tiny bit too much?

Lynn,
Nice job all around.  I would leave mix 5 alone and call it a day.  Sounds good on my PC here at work.  I can hear all the instruments really well.

Hi Lynn.  Nice sounds to this one.  You have some great guitar work going on here.  Your vocals are very well done and really accent the lyrics.  Nice one.

Lynn-
a most excellent opus. love the vocal harmony and vox treatment in general-
the whole feel here conjures up a Peter Gabriel sound reminiscent of his 'Sledgehmer' days -
crunchy Strats twang nicely -
Definite foot tapping immediately with groove firmly established.
nice work - this is something I'd definitely buy and listen to :)

very cool!!

Clint - thanks for your kind words and encouragement.  I think I'll sit on this for a while.
 
Robbie - thanks for listening again.  I've learned that when I play a commercial CD in my car while driving on the highway, most things drop out of a mix except drums, bass, and vocals.  Thus, I mix that way, now days.
 
Jimmy - thanks for listening and your comments.  I'll take your advice.
 
Freddy - thanks for taking the time!  I must get to work on my British pop, now.
 
Daryl - I appreciate you taking the time to listen twice.  I'm glad you like the marimba because when I posted this a few years ago, people were suggesting I drop them.  I just couldn't bear to do that.
 
Daren - you've uncovered my muse!  PG has long been an influence on me.  And, please, keep posting your throwaway songs.  I love em.
