I like the track...it's a good song..

The low end is a little heavy and the vocals a little too out front for my taste in this genre...

Hey Bob!  Man this tune rocks!!!  Reminds me of some good old Ronnie Montrose a bit.

I too think the low end is VERY deep, as my sub was bouncing off the floor.  Maybe adjust your cutoff filter for a steeper slope, or roll off the level below 80 Hz a bit more??  Also, I had a hard time getting definition out of the bass, so maybe a tweak in the low mids might help???

I thought the vox was just right on my system.  And this tune is LOUD!!!  LOL  Fine job on those guitars too!

Just a few tweaks, and I think this one is ready for prime time.
Thanks.

Another kickin' a$$ rocker...  sounds huge...  great work, as usual Bob...

Your awesome guitar playing just stuns me.  I like the lyrics, especially "I had my lucky day when I found you".  I don't have a subwoofer, so I can't comment on the bass, but everything was well defined on my monitors.  The only thing I heard concerns the vocal.  I thought it lacked some mids which made it sound a little bright.  Yet, it cuts through everything, and I'm a fan of being able to understand the lyrics regardless of the genre.  All this needs is a few minor tweaks to elevate this mix into an absolute gem.  Encore, maestro.

 Hi Bob,

 Its been awhile since I heard anything from you and this is a pleasant surprise. I like rockers and you know how to play and mix those guitars. I can't comment on bass either on my ipod earbuds. The mix does fit these very well. I think you have another winner on your hands.Thanks for sharing this here!

Superb song and performances! Just a bit of mix tweaking on the low end and she'll be there.

great song.. rocks well

Well, I thought maybe you would change and do opera, NOT!  I like the way it starts and the panning and all.  Your recording technique is awesome.  Actually, I'm on pretty good monitors (BX8a) and hear no rumble or any low overtones that shouldn't be there.  It's well balanced to my ears.  Of course, everyone knows old guys can't hear.  LOL.  It's a good song and it's played, sung, recorded and mixed well. 

Bob, every tune you do is just killer - this is awesome.
