That's some cool stuff there Walt. I like it. Drums sound great and I like the effects on the guitar too. Lots of little things to listen to.

Thanks Clint. Those Mick Fleetwood loops really do sound great, and it's hard to make them sound bad!  I love his style.  I bought this (http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/mickfleetwood) many years back, and this may be the first time I've actually used them in a song.  They sound so good I'm already thinking of using them again on my next song.
 
As far as the guitar goes, I agree that the FX are pretty sweet sounding.  However, to be honest, I'm not entirely happy with my guitar performance.  I was actually thinking about you earlier today while taking the guitar lead.  Any interest in replacing it with a tasty one of your own? :)  If you've got the time send me a PM.  I'd love to hear what you can do with it.

Thanks John.  Yeah, a bit of "stream of consciousness" there.

 You are getting better each time Walt! This piece has some interesting twists in it. Your selection of sounds is good here. Has a synthy jazz feel to it IMO.

Nice interweaving of tone and timing in this one.  This has a good nouveau jazzy sound.
Good one!

Walt, I like this so much that I'm going to listen again and study what you're doing here.  The mix is well executed, and the performances are tasty.  You make it seem so easy.

Thanks Freddy.  I always have a hard time classifying songs, especially my own.  That'll work. :)
