Just returned from business trip and was surprised to see all the nice comments on this song thread. Must be a lot of L&M fans.
Danny - Really appreciate your help on this one, as you mention, some of it was OK but you really cleaned up the bottom end. It was really a mess prior to your help. When I A/B my original to the mix with your suggestions the result is night and day. Really outstanding input and thanks again.
Dan - Thanks for the comment, it was tough and fun at the same time. Appreciate you listening.
FreddyJ - Glad you like the song even though not a L&M fan. Appreciate your comments on the instrumentation. I am sure the Vox were tough too but I only had to mix them, not record and sing them;)
Alkie/Alan - Thanks, glad you like it.
Pete - Appreciate your comment. Not a million dollar studio, just my home office, unfortunately;( I really like the sound of the 70's recordings and all the groups you mention, and was shooting for that target. Thanks for listening.
Manny - Appreciate the comment. I am sure Robby has framed your comment about the vocals over his computer monitor;) Overwhelming is a good description. I am not sure what prompted L&M to turn the song into a 7:40 jam but it is a cool song. Seemingly they had a lot of instruments laying around the studio they wanted to add to the mix;) Glad you like it, Dirty Work would be a good song to cover, just listened to it for reference. Maybe we'll do it. I have another Van Halen cover in the works and have started on Money by Pink Floyd. At some point I would like to post some originals but am working on mixing skills right now. So many good songs to learn from I am hesitant to post originals until I can do them justice. Thanks again.
Regards
