on Somethings Not right by davepowell1
Great tune. Lyrics once again are well on point, and clearly put forward a message (if that makes any sense?) which isn't always so easy to do.

Only small criticism is to let that great voice of yours cut through the mix a little more.

Other than that, really loved it. Thank you!

Criticism is welcome... and deserved. I have so much going on that I have a hard time staying focused on any one thing. My recording skills suck and it shows. Still.... I get great pleasure writing, singing and performing. Thank you for taking time to listen and give helpful advice... I appreciate it

on We Never Learn by davepowell1
Great song man, love the lyrics. Just a shame the vocals aren't more pronounced as you've got a real drive to your voice that sometimes seems to get a little lost among the instrumental.

Still really enjoyed it though, and thanks for sharing :)

Yeah, I'm a terrible sound man and I get frustrated when recording, then it's down hill from there. Thank goodness there's no laws forbidding a redo. :D
Thanks mildperil!

Thank you, DR... You all, are very kind. All I can do is put it out there and give it my heart and a lot of thought. Essential ingredients for a good recipe. Cheers!

Like it, reminds me of CCR, I think it could benefit from a touch of mastering.

Thank you, Grunties... CCR had a big influence on me for sure.
As for mastering... it could use a bit of polish, but I'm kinda rough anyway

Thank you, CbucketZ. It's an Ibanez. I recently broke the neck at the head stock, but repaired it myself and it never sound sweeter.

Hey Dave

Great track in a Neil Young style and great lyrics too. Nice job man.

on We Are One by davepowell1
Hey man, this is a really great song and the lyrics are so heart felt. IMHO, a little reverb on your voice would make the whole thing more haunting.

Nice Job.

Really nice track with a Neil Young feel to it, love that. Your voice is slightly off in places, but that's cosmetic. It's great to come across original talent here and you've definitely got that. Thanx for sharing.

on The Honor to Please Her by davepowell1
Only two reviews. That's ok, I'm here :-)

I really love the idea of this song! You're singing out, and the intensity of the guitar really meshes well with your emotion as you're singing. Love that!

The honor to please him...used to do that.......never works :-)

Anyway, good musical piece!

davepowell1 replied 16th Mar 2013 - 12 years ago
Thank you as always Patricia. I could have spent forever on this and I'm not sure if It would be any better. I suck at recording. In reflection, I believe the "Her" is 'Music' and I am the faithful servant. The words just 'fell out' as well as the music, so I had to ask what it was I was trying to say...

on The Honor to Please Her by davepowell1
I like the vibe of the song. It kinda takes my mind back to the early days of rock and the greats that made rock legendary. Very very catchy guitar rhythm and the chords choice is fantastic.

I agree with Glocke on the vocals being a bit to filtered and sounding small but this is definitely a track with a lot of potential. You could easily turn this into a power metal type of song by adding some drums and heavy guitars on top of this arrangement. Definitely lots of options in there.

Thanks for sharing!

on The Honor to Please Her by davepowell1
beautiful song. :)

but why did you some filters on your voice? would be much cooler with your real voice, hearing the breathing and the distinctive sound.

anyway, nice feelings in here! :)
davepowell1
davepowell1 replied 9th Mar 2013 - 12 years ago
Thank you Glocke. I am not a studio engineer by any stretch and I only fly by the seat of my pants when recording. After a while it is hard to tell if I am doing the right thing or not ....so, I just go with what feels good at the time and move on from there. Glad you enjoyed it.

Dave,
Nice track man. May I suggest a little less reverb on the vocals to bring them to the front? Your voice is too good to hide man. I know, I used to lol.
Mark.

Thanks Ratridge! You advice is sound. I will and I want o slow the tempo a tad and take off the chorus delay also.. Thanks for being honest and open!
