Wow is definitely the word. This is very beautiful. A far cry from the punk metal style I had in mind for Racket. Great musicianship all the way around.
Wow, what a collection of talent. Here we have three of my favorite musicians all assembled for one terrific track. Allen, your guitar work reminds me of George Benson on this one. Slap is exceptional as always, and Dylan is, well, amazing.
Not enough superlatives for this track. You guys need to hit the road....I'll drive :)
Haha!We'll find another driver, so why not join the band!how cool would that be,all of us on one stage.
You know that's the only thing I miss after these collabs,is wondering "what if"...I can see it in my mind and have the dream that one day one of us wins the big multi million jackpot and brings us all together live.I would be in heaven and wouldn't think twice!
George Benson...hmm..I'll take it!He was the first smooth jazz guitarist I ever listened to,it's very nice to be in the same review as him :)
Wow. This is so smooth. Listening to this on a breezy summer day would be crazy man!
If your talents weren't enough, Slap's sax was so satisfying words can not describe. WOW. Now I want to go learn sax :P.
Matthew,Thanks!I tried to play sax once myself...only once!
So I stuck to the guitar,that's what we talk about all the time.This site has allowed so many of us to share what we do and the Spell,Slap combo is hard to beat,that's why I'm so happy to play a part in these collabs.
Yet another great track from Al.V. great rhythm, nice guitar and i like the addition of the crowd ! good idea. Try and get a sample of wembley stadium next time, and your be close to hitting the enormity of this tune ! Loved it, faved !
Great track, beautiful mix and a bucket load of feeling. As you know I love producing simple acoustic guitar songs, and this one is no exception to the supurb range of sound possible with simplicity. lovely work, keep it up. Faved !
I appreciate your take on this Jkingz.I had a drum sample through out the song and some reviews reflected your comment about simplicity and that the drum track took away from that..they were right and I give a lot of credit to this site and the true and constructive reviews you can get here,like yours!
I'm currently downloading ALL your RnB tracks to make a night time driving album. REALLY like the vibe in your tracks, great sounds, beautiful mix and supurb instrument playing. Pure Magic
Wow,Thanks JKingz!
I'm glad that we could share something that would mean that much to you.Spell and I love music and this style so much, and your comments validate our work together...which isn't work at all,it's a joy!
Hey VickyD,you know it was Slap that chose to add his Sax..and of course we were elated...and we are so proud to have him on this track,no genius here except Mr Slap!
Thank you so much for the comments and for checkin' us out!
Man, i love the mix on this track, really, really splendid. good job. nice sax, and great backing melody, downloaded esp for night time driving :D good job my man
It was wonderful before, but with the sax Slap ... What Shall I tell you? My wish that ye three more collaborations together. My most hearty applause, my friend.
Another magical piece, such a chilled laid back track, again Slap is brilliant on the Sax, like the intro, then into the track, nice guitar and beat my friend, this is one to sit back n have a drink and let the music take you on a journey,Fav'd my friend...very good work Allen, another great collab..Peace dude...Estefano...
Thank you Estefano!SpellJammer, Slap and I seem to have this common smooth jazz thing going on that blends together so well.With or without me this would be a great track but I am very proud to be part of it!
Thanks for your review my friend,
Allen
Thank you Wayne,Slap does make all the difference.
I guess it's in part that the style SpellJammer and I are doing lends it's self to the Sax so well,and that Slap is just sooo very awesome!
Just a great RnB Jazz track here, nice smooth guitar with a really sweet and romantic melody! just real nice! very impressed with the way you handle this great style of music!nice clear recording and love the old record effect in the into! keepem coming!!
Thanks BM!The fx and all but guitar and sax are from SpellJammer,he's great!
You know I was just talking to my Son about how this was not my original choice for live music,which is all I did until I joined this site.I always played in top40 rock bands so I loved this but rarely played with this caliber of musicians needed to create this stuff live.So this is a very appreciated experience!
Well, i gotta echo IWE - you guys really have nailed this - a rich mix - very soulful, jazzy, and i hope i'm not the only one who finds a great off-the-wall sense of humor and playfulness in this as well - really rewarding music- hat's off, gents
Hey Mike,Thank you for the comments!I'm so glad you heard the fun in this tune..it was very fun to play on SpellJammers track and when Slap joined in the fun level jumped up quite a bit!
Hi Allen, it's a great privilege to play on such a rich and well woven tapestry. This song is testament to the reason why this site exists. We all live on different continents but are as one through music... Awesome job guys..
Hey Slap!Thank you and...thank you...you brought this thing to life.I echo what you mean about this site,I would never have been able to play out all my musical dreams with all these wonderful producers and musicians if not here.I know we all try to make songs that are both enjoyable and have a certain quality,but it's the collaboration for me that makes it all possible.
Wow,Thanks philippic!I'm so fortunate to have friends like these here on the loop,they do what they do so well!
I'm very pleased you like it and commented.
What is there to say which hasn’t been said already! Sublime, as always. Your playing has given this track a very commercial and great vibe. Vicen's vocals are killa and perfectly complimented by you! What can I say man, you’re my hero! The world is a better place for having a guy with your talents, humility and personality. You have no idea how much your willingness to partake in collabs with all of us has taught us in the musical sense, Im sure Vicen will agree. Keep being you my friend, you are destined for great things!
Thank you my good friend.Vicen is a great talent and I'm fortunate to play on his track.You know I feel undeserving of you kind words..it's I who am learning every day and am so happy to share anything in any way I can.
I played many years in bars to feed myself and family but now I get to feed my soul so I'm the lucky one with friends like Vicen...and yourself.
I have found happiness in my family,friends on and off the loop and of course music...anything else would be icing on the cake!
Mate I knew I was going to dig this piece, right from the very start, great guitar right from the start, relaxing rock piece, one that you can sit back and listen and really enjoy...Great collab, loving the vocals, have no idea what is being said but sounds so right for this piece...Peace n Respect to you both on this very good piece...Adding to fav's...Estefano...
Wow,I'm behind on these great reviews!
Vicen is such a treasure.He's so very unique with his sound.Yes,I didn't know what was said during recording so I had to feel his music,you have to go to his page to get the translation!
Thanks Estefano.
