How have I missed your music????

It must be old age :)

I won't forget to come back and listen again.

This is fantastic. Absolutely one of the best tracks I've heard in a while. Beautiful work. Faved in 4 seconds.

Oh, and my compliments to J.P. Banks for the great sax work.

Hey DV, I think I reviewed this one the last time I lived at the Loop. I still get the same emotions today as I listen to it. With all of the stuff we have to work with - virtual instruments, fx, automation, loops, etc. it is nice to hear a piece that was played on the instrument in front of you.

There is something about the intimacy one can achieve using one single instrument to make a track. This piece shows that. Thanks for sharing a special moment in time.

Beautifully done.

Bear

Now this is what I call fusion....a wonderful melding of jazz and rock, with a Spanish flair. Outstanding vocal work as usual. At some point you are going to force me to learn Spanish :)

Bravo!!!

Bear

Very nice vocals. You have a unique quality to your voice. Really nice control and I love the fact that your pitch is spot on. You also have the ability to express emotion when you sing, probably the most important thing a singer can learn.

This is really nice.

Malu gives great advice. It would be nice to have your vocals a bit more forward in the mix. It almost feels like your vocals were added after the song was mixed....

But I'm nit picking here, instead of enjoying the experience.

Extremely well done and I look forward to many more songs from you. And please thank your brother for his service to all of us. It is greatly appreciated.

Bear

Now this is nice. Like Mr. Stokes said, it just invites people to jump in and play along. Outstanding effort on all fronts. Love the crystal clear guitar tones.

Muy Muy Bueno!!!!!!

Bear

I just thought I would stop by and have a cup of coffee while listening to one of my favorite singers.

You never disappoint, such flawless delivery. I cannot figure out why the world has not discovered your amazing talents....perhaps someday the right person will drop by.

You are remarkable and we are so lucky to have you in our midst.

I enjoyed my coffee, but not nearly as much as I enjoyed this song :)

Well done.

Bear

I have to agree with Nuada. I wasn't paying much attention and had the knob on 11 and the drums kicked in.....almost knocked my off my chair, hahaha.

Your production is always flawless, and this is no exception. Everything is just crystal clear and sitting nicely in the mix.

Another terrific effort. I think it is time for Shan to give you another 50 slots for your tunes :)

Bear

Man, Bill, I've been asleep at the wheel (not good when you drive a Short Bus, ahhaha). How did I miss this fantastic song. Like Dave said, there is not much better than the sound of a Strat in the right hands, and yours are definitely the right hands.

Another magnificent track, from the guitar work, to the composition, to the production. It's always a master's class in how to do things right over here at your place.

Thanks for sharing this amazing track. Faved for sure.

Bear

Bill, I always thought you were the star in your family, but then Angela came along and moved you to position number two in the talent charts. Now I know who is really the superstar, and you have officially been relegated to last place, haha.

Wow, what a wonderful song and Claudia sang it flawlessly.

Thanks for posting this love song Bill. Happy Mother's Day to your lovely wife Claudia and how about a standing ovation for the entire family.

Bravo.

Bear

Good stuff here. Hard to believe you are just a pup, haha.

You seriously have some mad skills. Just keep your head on straight and keep working and be patient.

Good things come to those who work their asses off.

Well done.

Bear

@bcway, great review, haha.

I have to agree with him. I'm glad I listened to this one during the day, and not late at night. This has tremendous cinematic value. This is one of those tracks that I can actually visualize the movie scene just by the music....and that isn't an easy thing to accomplish.

This inspires me to finish one of my own cinematic pieces. Outstanding effort here and I love the mix on it.

Bear

I was hoping someone could use that loop of mine, and I'm thrilled it was you. Man, you are the absolute king of chill, seriously.

What a great way to start the day. This is absolutely flawless, from a compositional standpoint to the production.

Definitely one for my IPod. If you could send me a copy of this one I would be forever in your debt. Wonderful Henrik.

Faved for sure.

Bear

Wow, wow, and wow again. What a wonderful voice. You have major skills young lady. I just wish I worked in those genres. There are a lot of great dance/house producers on the Loop that will beating your door down for a chance to work with you, haha.

Welcome to the Loop. I'm really looking forward to hearing more of your work.

Bear

So, I am out here in the middle of the desert, enjoying my first cup of coffee of the day...it's about 68 degrees, no wind......

and with this tune playing in the background, well, it just doesn't get much better than this.

Outstanding work. You more than did justice to that loop. You took it to a whole new wonderful place.

Straight to favorites and thanks for the kind shoutout. Well done.

Bear

I thought I saw you had a new one up :)

Good news, you did!!

A visit to your page is always a lesson in production and clarity, and this track is no exception. Fabulous work. Had my old bones rocking and rolling, hahaha, and that's a lot of rocking and rolling.

Outstanding effort. Hope all is well.

Bear

I have to agree with Wayne. The longer the one went, the more fun it became...almost like some great auditory roller coaster ride. Terrific work, but that is no surprise.

This is a wonderful listen. And for the record, I think squirrels are cool :)

Bear

You are rapidly becoming the king of chill. Like Nuada, I loved that vocoder sound you have through the middle section...gives it almost an RnB feel.

Wonderful job on this one. Definitely had to add it to favorites :) Another masterpiece.

Well done.

Bear

Wonderful!!! I love the chord progressions in this one. The mix is really nice, but what sets this apart is your marvelous vocal work. You really are gifted. Thanks for sharing your talents with all of us.

Straight to favorites.

Bear

I'm glad you shared this one. It captured the essence of the early days of the blues.

I'm not sure where music would be today had guys like Robert Johnson, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Leadbelly, Charlie Patton, and many other greats, decided to do something else for a living.

This is a phenomenal listen. I just hope the folks on Looperman can appreciate how good this really is.

Well done Sean. Again, I'm glad you put this one up. It is special.

Bear

I love the "live" feel of this one, sounds almost like it was recorded in an arena. You also used probably one of my favorite chord progressions.

I think she would love this one.

If is isn't cranked to 11, you aren't trying hard enough :)

Great work.

Bear

I think ZZ Top proved a long time ago that you don't need some big band to pull off great rock and roll. This track proves that point once again. Outstanding track. It has all of the essentials, great bass, great guitar, great vox, great drums, and a great mix.

Wonderful effort.

Bear

Now this is exceptional....and amazing that it is only 4 tracks.

I'm blown away by this one. I thought it might be fun to put something over it, but then again I think, "Why screw it up?"

It's perfect like it is.

Yet I'm compelled to see if I can add anything. So, I'll download it and if nothing else, marvel at your creativity.

Bear

Nicely done Fixxxer. This was like sitting in on a live jazz/fusion performance.

And I thoroughly enjoyed my listen :)

Well done.

Bear

Sean, this is fabulous. I think Jamie hit the nail on the head when he said this sounded like one of the Dead's jams. I had the pleasure of sitting in on one them and I've never forgotten it. It's amazing just how good live performances can be. Definitely added to favorites :) Thanks for sharing this gem.

Bear

Brent, you have mad skills my friend. You are really a superb composer and musician. It is obvious you have a great understanding of many different genres.

This is really nice work. Probably one of the most enjoyable listens I've had in a while. Straight to favorites :)
