Here's a rough mix of my newest song, I could use some comments if you've got the time.
As always, thanks much, I appreciate it!
 
Politician Blues

I love songs that tell a true story. I love this song. Great job on the mix. Sounded great on my pc speakers.  Maybe bring up the vocal a bit.

Really nice mix, everything sits well. Nice guitar solo too!

Regards,
Dan

yep.... sounds about right


mix sounds good too....

I have been thinking about doing another "non-PC" song .... still contemplating 


good job!  And some nice chops on the keys.

BobV - Thanks a lot. Yeah, I wish this sing wasn't true but sadly, it is. Glad you liked it! I'm still working on the mix, there might be a bit too much FX on the vox, I'll work on that.

Dan - Much appreciated. The solo is about the fifth or sixth take, took me that long to realize I just needed to keep it simple.

Herb - Thanks for the comments. Get on that "non-PC" song, I'd love to hear it! BTW: The keys aren't me, that's my studio buddy, goes by the name of Ebony Z. Ivory (not his real name, obviously). We used to play together, he's a high school band director now and helps me out from time to time.

Great song! Clearly talented and experienced musicians all, very entertaining, right on the money in this blues style.

This is a TINY possible adjustment: I really like your piano player, LOTS of musical interest in there throughout.

To my ears, the piano is slightly behind the guitar in the sound stage picture, whereas I'd like to hear all those licks just slightly in front of the chord-vamping guitar.

A little bit more punch and brightness in the piano part? Maybe just a touch each of compression and EQ in about 3kHz-6 or 7kHz. Just a bit, let me hear that great pianist.

Yep, political for sure. Nice keyboards and instrumentation. Sounds pretty good to me and feels bluesy. Very nicely done. Good mix.

Peace be with you. Blessings, John

Love the vocals .... reminds me a bit of Iggy or Bowie. Great tune, piano is spot on for this tune as is the guitar solo. Great lyrics as well ... Nicely done! backup horns really take this one home. 

Nicely done! Cool pooch :-)

Great track - I agree with UltimateMusicSnob about the piano (but I'm a biased pianist!) but apart from that it all sounded good to me!

Cheers,
Terry.
