Hello my friend.Thanks for stoppin by and leaving the good comment.Hey,you and Jim kinda got a supergroup goin' on over there...great stuff.

Allen

thnx. although ım not a guitarist ı tr to improver each day. there is another one. on the way ı'll upload by tonight.
im just composing, if i found a good vocal, the song will totally shifts to another dimension and more audiable.

Hey thanks Kikajon for stopping by and given a listen,thanks so much for your kind words also, really apperacate it big time guy! Good chamce this will wind up with vocals.Need a few things here and I should be underway!

thanks again

Brian ;)

Thanks Kikajon, I appreciate it

Thank you my friend,your complement means a lot and I'm very humbled by your remarks.If I must reply it would be that I have never said no to any style of music over the 36yrs i've played, regardless of my preferences and if you consider music as a gift then I feel blessed.Vocals would be great and I do like Jim's classic style.Oh yea,Cochise is a great song isn't it!

Allen

Thanks for the fav. I'm glad you liked it. Sax is one of my favorite instruments. It gives a unique rhythm to the songs.

thanks so much for the comparison to both Tori and U2 - both artists I adore!

your kind words are much appreciated :)

Thanx P,Mr.Plant Is in a class of his own!As well Jimmy and Bonzo and John Paul!

Thanx dude nuff respect! I suppose by now u know how I feel about vox hee hee...I treat vox the same way I would treat any other instrument in the mix; if it sounds good f@#k it. This was a particularly hard song to record because of the subject matter, and also because I was completely WASTED for the vocal track. And the funny thing is this, I was even more wasted for THIS vocal track than I was for the Blast Aria track and THIS is more coherent! Go figure...

Many thanks for the listen!

Jamie.

Thank you for the awesome complement,even to be mentioned in the same sentence as AD is more than expected and appreciated!I agree with the distortion comment...if only you knew how many times I played some of the parts to get it right.I don't know much about recording but I have learned the miracle of undo/redo and punch in/out and it still took me hours because as you know if your in the middle of a bended note or seamless passage and screw up even those tools can't always help you out,I just have to start over,and I did.I almost went with a Santana sound just so I could use distortion and slide into my comfort zone,but reviews like yours make the extra effort worth it.
Thanks again

Allen

thanks for the feedback! ive been making melodies on my guitar and garageband for a while now but its only recently i've been trying to understand the producing side of things more, and working on making a final copy of tracks, so thanks for the feedback its very inspiring! i'll check out some of your stuff too :)

Thank u so much!It breaks my heart everyday and even working on this track is so painful-but it brings me some comfort to know that there are people out there that understand the pain behind it.Thanks for your very thoughtful review.

Hey Thanks Kikajon for the insight on this track, I have to remix it again for the 100th time, it was new ground for me in a few areas and hit some sound inbalances in a few places! theres allways a challage somwhere in recording! one of teh reason I enjoy it so much!

thanks again guy!

Bm;)

thx buddy!! well appreciated ... ;-)
peace, rei

Thanks for those very kind words.This was a baby I had to nurture.Every thing was a first,learning to do simple looping which shoulda been easy cause they were already made,to mixing...nothing but my ears and volume knobs to work with(I spent a day tweaking knobs,thank you for the mix comment).If all I had to do was play guitar...But the kind reviews are the payoff,and I have the song.Did I say the recorder was new also.Hey,I'm tired,can somebody just send me a track I can play to?
Really,it was fun.
