It seems Looperman.com has been graced with another wonderful female singer/songwriter/composer. This is really really nice. Your voice has a wonderful quality to it. Your phrasing and control is outstanding as well. Nice bass line and percussion too. It seems you are multi-talented!

I can hear perhaps some strings on this one, maybe some brass, a little piano, and definitely a break of some kind, haha. Let me know what else you might have in mind for this one. Just send an email to bear9253@rconnects.com if you would like.

Beautiful work ShiL, absolutely beautiful.

Oh, I almost forgot, welcome to the Loop! We are very lucky to have you here among us :)

This is top shelf material and if the rest of your album is of this caliber, you guys are going to do really really well. I'll be curious to hear the remixes....sometimes it's nearly impossible to improve upon the original.

This one is definitely a 10/10. Best of luck you you all.

Bear

Now this is nice.

I'm no expert on house....as a matter of fact, the only house I know anything about is the one I live in.

What I do know is this is a song with all of the right elements, and they are all in the right places. This is well thought out, and the execution is flawless.

Props to Patricia, to you, and to Mahloo (for his stellar mix and master). This song is great example of a tune that is radio ready.

And something I would actually buy.

Outstanding effort by all. WongKi, you are slowly bringing me over to the dark side with your talents. Well done.

Bear

This takes me back a few years to some of the bars I played in. I love the blues/rock feel of this track. You deliver the goods on this one my friend. Another outstanding effort from you.

Great job.

Bear

Like Pete, I too enjoyed this one with a cup of coffee in my hand. As always, this is a master's class in guitar work, your tone is just amazing. I really enjoyed the arrangement as well, the other instrumentation is at the same level of your guitar playing making the whole piece special indeed.

Thanks, Bill, for getting my day off on the right foot. And thanks for the download so I can fire this one up later with a ##### :)

I hope all is well.

Bear

I'm not sure how I missed this one!!! Great use of the guitar loop. Man, you had me jumping all over the joint. It put a huge smile on my face my friend, and that is what music is all about. Great mix, great production, great song.

My hat is off to you. Outstanding effort.

Bear

Just when I think you two cannot top your latest hit, you come along with another great song. If you aren't careful, Nashville just might come calling and request your presence in their fair city.

You know what? I've got all the bags on the bus, I'll grab Richie, swing by and pick you up Patricia, and it's off to Nashville we go.

You can sing absolutely any genre. I am not a big country fan, but if all country sounded like this, I sure would be. Bravo to both of you for a job really, really well done.

Oh, and this one was downloaded so me and the Mrs. might be able to take a turn around the dance floor. Thanks for that.

Bear

FR, great use of Patricia's vocals, really amazing interpretation. Man this sounds so nice in headphones....just wish I had something to light up as well, hahaha. Reminds me of the days gone by and listening to Pink Floyd.

Anyway, extremely creative and a great listen. Outstanding effort.

Bear

Richie, you consistently produce some of the best music on Looperman. Your ability to take a raw vocal and turn it into a hit is nothing short of amazing.

Once again you set the bar so high. It is always a pleasure to stop by and hear your work. Another hit. And a tip of the hat to Farisha for the great vocals.

Stellar work my friend.

Bear

Wonderful pads in this one, great chord progressions. I really liked the sprinkling of the piano throughout.

Mix seems really solid and crisp, not an easy task with that much bass going on.

Outstanding effort - one hell of a ride.

Bear

OK Patricia, I've got the Bus gassed up, motor running, and I'm waiting on you and Richie....it's time to get this show on the road!!!!!

The bar is now set about as high as it can get. This one is one part blues, one part soul, one part gospel, and five parts amazing.

I'm speechless.

And I'm standing and applauding.

Bear

I'm not sure how I missed this one. And I'm also not sure why it has not garnered more attention. It is as good as the original.

While you can sing anything and make it sound great, RnB is absolutely in your "wheel house."

Richie is so good.......

I really think you two should hit the road and I'll be happy to drive your bus. Maybe even sit in for a song or two, hahaha.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful (ouch, that sounded like Lawrence Welk).

Bear

Now this is what I call production.....you are a freaking genius. I just wish these were through. Both songs are so different, yet what shines through is the quality of the work.

I have no clue how you do it, other than you have busted your A$$ learning and doing all these years. It is always a master's class in sound when I stop by your place.

I anxiously await the final product on both of these.

Bear

Outstanding track, great treatment with the guitars, very nice mix. Jah would have loved this one (and probably asked why you didn't have any bass in it, hahaha). A great tribute to a great guy. I wish I had my favorite button back again like we had in the old Looperman. Well done my friend.

Bear

This is by far, the finest cover of this song I have heard....like Kyle said, even better than the original.

BRAVO!!! I wish I had a favorite button. Beautiful work by all involved.

Bear

Richie, I've been listening to the blues for a long, long time and I have to tell you, this is just about as good as it gets. Patricia is amazing, but even more impressive...is that your instrumentation matches her brilliance.

This is fabulous.

Not many words to describe how good this is, so I'll just stand up and applaud.

Downloaded and Faved, Faved and FAVED!!!!!!!

Bear

Brother, this is fantastic....not sure where to start....

Who knew you were this talented and could produce a track like this. Heck, I always thought you were probably one of the best rappers on the Loop, but now I've got to adjust my thinking and throw in producer/composer/arranger/musician.

That's a lot of hats and you obviously wear them all well.

This is top shelf work my friend. As good as it gets (that bass is awesome). I'm glad you decided to start back into the beat making business. The only thing that would make this one better is a bit of thephilosofist vocal work :)

Brilliant work, absolutely brilliant. I hope all is well.

Bear

Richie, I have to agree with L....this is spot on and definitely radio ready. This is as good as anything I've heard on the radio in a long, long time. A perfect blend of talent, MIM4E on vox and you on the instruments. Beautiful work and a tip of the hat for a wonderful effort.

Wow, I do wish I had a favorite button for sure :)

Major props to both of you. Fabulous!!!!!!

Bear

I have to agree with Ed. It's hard to push our way through the din of "noise" on mainstream radio in these times we live in. Songs like this one are what should be playing on the airwaves.

Tommy Emmanuel would be proud of the guitar work on this one. And the vocals, well, just about as good as they can get. Spelljammer is so hugely talented in so many, many different ways.

One of the best collabs on the Loop. Thanks for sharing this one. It is truly special.

I'll stand and applaud now.

Bear

Michael Stokes is a freaking genius. Then you toss in your guitar work (a master's class in how to play one). Then for good measure, you incorporate Ed's intro....holy cow, this is so good!!!!!!!!

Seriously one of the best tracks on the Loop. I have to agree with the Robin Trower reference from Dave - he would be proud of this one for sure.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

AWESOME!!!!

\m/ \m/

Bear

By the way, if you need a guitar, I've got several lying around that are used to being abused instead of played, haha. They wouldn't know how to act in the hands of a master.

Definitely two of my favorite Looper Super Stars here....love the trippy feel to this one. I just ordered a Zoom G9.2tt pedal. I can only hope to get close to the tone you have.

My God you have magic in your hands.

It goes well with Twanna's musical genius.

This one is definitely a 10/10.

Bear

What a great way to start my day. Nick is a genius (we all know that) but when you put your phenomenal guitar work in the mix, well it goes to a whole new level.

SMOKIN!!!!!!!!!!

You probably had to cool off the frets a bit after this one. Shredding at its finest, because I can hear every single note you played. And that is the way it should be :)

Bravo gents and a tip of the hat to Pedro for his piano loop....man that guy can play.

Bear

Very nice treatment on the vocals, mix is really clear...vox sitting just right. Well constructed and extremely entertaining. Outstanding effort. I'm a big jazz fan and this one hit the spot! Thanks for sharing.

Bear

Richie, what a wonderful treatment of Amelia June's vox. I love everything about this, from the guitar solo, to the mix, to the pacing (wow, just brilliant) to the beautiful chord progressions. I've heard just about every interpretation of her pella, but this one ranks right up there at the top.

Superb in every aspect, and in every way possible.

Bravo my friend. And a huge thanks for the download, straight to my all time favorites.

Bear

Well young lady, this is really nice work...better than nice - your vocals are absolutely flawless. Move over Beyonce/Rhianna/et al, and make room for a real artist!!!!!

I have to agree with Dave, but for different reasons. This would be a fantastic song if it was done with real guitars (I'm not a big fan of the synthesized guitars). I think if this one was done in a studio with real session players it would be a hit record. Something for your collab partner to think about.

Can you imagine how good this could be with Planet on bass, Bilbozo or Rei or AllenV or MackMan or Randy or any other number of great guitar players that are on this site doing the guitar work, and then maybe Buddrumming on drums??????? Ohhh that would be fine.

Anyway, sorry if it seems I'm nitpicking but this one really has major, major potential. It has all of the necessary elements to be a hit record. It would just be fantastic if you and your collab partner could wander into a studio and do it up right.

Great song though, and again, your vocal work is spectacular.

Happy New Year
