Not familiar with the band or track, but it reminded me of the Average white band in parts. This track has a great funky vibe and the rhythm guitars are especially infectious. The vocals are perfect and sound excellent. The horns are a great addition when they come in. You make it sound effortless. Nice mix and production to top it off. Excellent work all round guys.

I don't believe I ever heard the song before. 

The groove does have a 70's funky white boy feel to it fo-sho!

The performances were top notch. No crits there. 

The only thing, and since I know how hot this is, I'll listen again tonight on the cans..... cheap computer speakers don't do it proper justice...... anyway, the mix sounds a bit rounded off on the high end. No crispness or air to it. More bottom heavy than balanced..... I'll listen again later with better transducers. 

Either way, gents... this is pretty hot.... or cool, yeah, it's good. 



edit: I'd have a look at the EQ on it. Other tunes are nice and crisp where they need to be.

Hi Randy,

I like this a lot. The only crit I have is, it sounds a little heavy in the upper part of the low end. It's a little foggy for my taste.

Thanks,

Bub.

Hah. I picked up on that too. I never read any of the other responses on a song until I've posted mine. I do that to gauge how well I pick up on things and to see if anyone else hears what I hear too.

Again though, great tune. I really liked it.

All aspects are real nice - performance and production!

The mix is indeed siding on the low end and the bass is a little bit muddy, but i guess that's how you like it.

I also heard two instances of vocal clipping, although i don't know if that is deliberate or not.

I could listen to this stuff all day long. Love the feel that the percussion mixed in with the drums and bass gives the tune. Mixed just right. Thanks for the listen.

Janet, glad you liked this. It's a different one for me.

Gary, yep, this is the kind of groove that makes my eyes go crossed. Thanks.

James (geere1), appreciate you checking this one out. 

Tap, gotta love the funk brudda!

Jamesyoyo, I was hoping you'd check this one out. There are a few of us here that remember good stuff like this. Thanks.

Guitarprima, I'm with you on the mix. Wish my stuff sounded like this too.

Blipp, My hats off to Paul on this one. He did all the heavy lifting. Thanks.


Scotty, I get the feeling you were dancing. Thanks man.

Randy
