Hey all! Haven't posted one in a while so I thought I'd throw one down. I've got some work to do on this, but here it is in its current state. : )

That sounds pretty dang good. How was the 12 string recorded? Good job on the vocals too, it gave me a Rush vibe. Then a Boston vibe, great guitar work at the end, very Shultz-esque.
 

Nice one! I was not expecting the killer shred at the end.

Thanks Robbie! That beginning part was just a double tracked 6 string with harmonies in a couple sections. I just used a condenser by the 12th fret angled toward the sound hole. I appreciate the compliment on the vocal, especially coming from you. And I love Boston, so if I came off sounding a little like Tommy Sholz, I'm okay with that! Thanks for listening, Robbie, and for the comments!

That was pretty dang awesome and some nice playing. Loved the shred at the end and everything was LOUD and clear. Great song with some awesome vocals. Nice one in deed!!
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Thanks a lot! I appreciate you taking time to listen and the kind words.

Excellent, love this song. Very.....Maples and Oaks beginning on the acoustics. Vocals were well done, they had a Boston feel for me as well, yet still very much your own. Great message of course.

Yeah... that was nice.... I too got the Boston feel from it. Nice job.

I was thinking 'Yes' at first or maybe 'Kansas' influenced, really liked the intro.  Good song.

John, thank you for listening and for all the kind words. Yes, it is loud.:) That was one of the tweaks I was gonna make. It's a little too compressed in the heavier section. Thanks again John!
