Wig, You've got a real smooth sound. I like this voice alot. Is that you? I'm just now gettin' to hear more music since I finally got high speed. I see you're style is one I can get into. I'm gonna check out some more of your songs. You have a way with words that paints the picture. Nice. Dave Berdoulay

hey wigs--i dig this, tonight for some reason your vocal is a bit "into" the rest of the mix to my ears...i would like a bit more separation, though i'm not the producer you are, and can't tell you how...but i'd play with the vocal just a bit for separation....still like it allot, very nice job! i dig the slight twists in the lyric/words....i like the cement and mortar parts..."the horses" and the "betting" analogies...lbut i personally would like just a bit more "not nice" analogies.. . guitar lead when it comes in just a tad too loud to my ears...gee, wonder why i get this? LOL...but dig it allot;all the best,'warren

Wig,I like it. Has a bit of a Gordon Lightfoot feel in places. Love this lyric line .. She was bottled up lady - been aged for a while. Think maybe the vox could come out front just a tad more?Dean

Thanks, Dave,Yeah that's me singing. I'm glad you can get into the lyrics.Thanks, Warren,I've heard that the guitar coming in at 3:00 is a bit too loud. I'll try to address that in the next mix. Separate the vocals? I'll try, but I have cloned both the lead and the BGV's to spread out the stereo field by panning until you can't tell where it's coming from. Maybe I ned to be more down the center.Thanks, Dean,Maybe centering the vocals a little more will give them a more up front appearance. Glad you like the lyrics.Wig
