Paulo and Grant, thanks very much for taking a spin and the time to reply.

Lynn,

It's a very kewl beat.....like it a lot....
I also agree that it's very "Clapton" esk ala "I Shot the Sheriff" gruffiness type...

Thanx!!

Nice job on this, Lynn.  I like the song.  As a bass player, the bass tone is bothering me a little.  It seems like it should be a bit deeper or beefier.  I wish I could explain things better.  This could very well be just a personal preference.  Your vocal is good as always.  I like the tune and I like the ending. 

Larry, thank you for taking a listen and the Clapton reference.  He's one of my all time favorites though the similarity is accidental.

Warren, I take you seriously about all matters regarding bass.  Since this song is still open, I wonder if you think that applying the tube tone that comes with ProChannel would help with this?  I'll be experimenting with some different settings the next time I dial this up.  Glad you like the ending.

Nice song and arrangement .. sounds good

As Bat sez nice Todd Rundgren vibe.  Kinda poppy, kinda psychodelic.  Great mix of the 2 and, yea, it is very retro.  Nothing wrong w/ that seeing as I am too ;-)

About the only thing to add is the snare has no body (that I could hear on these computer speakers, anyway - they are hit and miss so take it with a saltshaker full of salt). 

Nice groove, great arrangement.  With the mix, it seems you are hitting the point of diminishing returns (tho I didn't hear the early versions).  It sounds really solid at this point.

Makke, I appreciate your comments and the time for listening.  Keep up your good work!

AT, you may be right about the point of diminishing returns.  I have it in the ballpark, so the best thing to do would be to give it a rest and approach it with fresh ears.  The snare is thinner than I normally use, but that was the idea.  This is something that I will listen to when I come back to this song.  Thanks for your time and advice.  You've given me much good advice this year.
