| Love your vocal Elaine, and the music seems well done and mixed. This has a bit of that old Country vibe to it that works for the song, but I do have one little nit. I think the echo on the guitar is a little too much, and the guitar is jst a little too hot in the mix. It sometimes take away from the the vocal because of it. All that said, I love the song and how your vocal carries it into that traditional country atmosphere. Great collab you two. Ed |

| Evergreen (Streisand/Williams) by Musicist | 11 months ago |
| The NZAB sounds wonderful here, as does Dave on his vocal. Your arrangement takes advantage of the strengths of this unique group of very talented musicians and the instruments they play, by giving them a chance to shine. The additions of the strings and guitar add the shimmer on that shine and turn this into a world class production in my humble opinion. Thank you for posting this, and also a shout out to Vicki for putting it up on her FaceBook page. I would not have found it otherwise, and would have been greatly diminished for not having the chance to hear this wonderful recording. To all involved in this production, Kudos to you all. Ed |

| Don't Be Concerned by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| Thank you Elaine. Your words touch me to the core. I'm glad you liked the song. - Ramona, thank you for listening and for your kind words. It is a special song and I'm glad you liked it. - Thanks Rusti, for dropping in to listen and the nice comments on the song. - Hello Jibes. Sharon died a long time ago, but there was a lot of emotion to deal with even now. Luckily, my Jeannie was here to support me on doing this which made it easier to do. I felt that Sharon's words were so special that this needed to be shared, and now I'm glad I did it. Thanks for the kind words my friend. - Thank you Chris, your words have a lot of meaning to me. I appreciate you listening and your comments my friend. Be well and be cool. - Hello Vicki. Sorry if I caused you to spring a leak around the eyes, but I was a necessary consequence of making this into a song. Love you girl. Get well and be well. Ed |

| Hangover Blue by mfwmiles | 1 year ago |
| Ah yes, signs of a mis-spent youth coming back to haunt you. Great song Mike, I can see it being a hit on campus. You don't say, but is this the original track or a recent remake of the song. With you new skills as a produced it would be very interesting to see how you would do the song now, with those new skills if this is the original. Love it as is, with it's quirky back tracks and all. Great job Mike. Ed |

| Change Isn't Always Good by ClayPotts | 1 year ago |
 two of the best, doing what they do best. Guy, you got the music, production and mix perfect on this, and Peter, you put together an awesome set of lyrics and the knocked it out of the ballpark with your vocals. Best thing I've heard on iComp or MJ since forever. You two can be justifiably proud of this one, it's Radio ready and bound to be a hit. e Ed |

| Hard Times by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| - thank you Dee. I wrote the song as a tribute to true friendship, as shown by these 3 guys coming up to cheer me up. I think we were all made better by the visit, and it's for certain that the song was. They did some amazing work in the parts the contributed to the song. We're glad you came to listen and enjoyed the song Dee. Thanks again for the kind words. - Cees my friend, you have an open invite for any time you get to this part of the world. the guys really aced it on their parts for the song and made it much better than anything I could have done by myself, of that there is no doubt. Thanks for double dipping on this one Cees. Take care, Be well and be cool. _ Thank you Cindy. We appreciate those kind words about the song. As for the vocals, yes that was me. Patrick did the call/response vocal on the end of the song and he did a fine job with the response. As for the music, I laid down the basic rhythm tracks and Wah guitar lead, and the guy just filled in the blanks on everything else. An amazing job of it too I think. You are right true friends are hard to come by, but I've been very Blessed on that by managing to be lucky enough to have developed these 3 friendships as well as a few more here at iComp and some others over on MacJams as well. I'm truly bless in this regard. Ed |

| Thanks Dave, glad you liked the song. Thanks for listening and the kind words, - Elaine, what can I say. You're always there for me and the guys and we very much appreciate it.We had so much fun finishing up this song last Saturday, and our weekend was one of the best ever because of those guys coming up to see Jeannie & I. We'll keep doing what we can, as long as we can, but I have slowed down a lot as I deal with this. But every once in a while, I'll get inspired and do something unexpected. Love ya girl, Thanks for being there for us. - Hello Ramona. Thank you so much for listening to the song. You good wishes are appreciated and needed. Peace to you and yours dear lady, you're the best. - Thank you for listening Barbara. You are right about Hard Time, and about music.We all appreciate the kind words you left for us so thank you again for that. - Thanks Chris, I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately, but it is getting difficult to find the energy to visit as often as I used to, or to sit in front of the computer for extended periods of time these days. Thank you so much for the kind words my friend, and for listening. The guys and I really appreciate it. Ed |

About the Analog sound, I did bring it into Logic and tweak it some, and that allowed me to bring out the best of what was there from the original recordings. I certainly appreciate your comment on that, Be well and be cool my friend. - Thank you Arend, Yeah I get what you mean about being true, This is the same guy who's always saying, "It's not my fault" all the time, Thanks for listening and the kind words my friend. - Hello Vicki, Thanks for listening Dear Heart and the kind words on it, Back at ya on the Christmas holidays, hope to catch up soon once the MIL goes home. Be well, Love | |
| Africa by grathy | 1 year ago |
| Great music, intelligent lyrics, and excellent vocals. What's not to love about this one, Mary. I went and watched the video, and it's the icing on the cake for this production. Kudos to all of you for a very well done piece. Ed |
|
| Paris, Texas Theme by artneuro | 1 year ago |
| Man that Washburn sounds wonderful Art. I love the echo/delay setting you used on the Washburn recording. It helps it to fill this with atmosphere and give it a very special sound. The D50 works well filling in the blanks and completing the piece. Excellent work Art, and even though I'm not familiar with the song I do very much like what I am hearing. My only nit is tat I wish it kept on going more, as I wanted to hear more of that great slide playing on the Washburn. Ed |

| The Dyslexic Dicktation Cyber Sex Blues by Vixen | 1 year ago |

| Sleep Walk - Jazz by scaustrita | 1 year ago |
| Nice work you two. Very creative lyric writing Mary, and while not the original lyrics for sleep walk, they really work well. Great back track Steve onto which Mary did a wonderful job vocally, I've never heard this as a jazz tune before but you two made it work great. Congrats to both of you, Ed |

| Can't help lovin' that man of mine by Vixen | 1 year ago |
Girl, is there anything you can't sing, and sing very well. If there is I've yet to hear it. This is wonderful, even if it is an old recording. Very well done back tracks accentuate the liquid vocals you've put down here. Sexy, smart, luscious, did I mention sexy, vocals. Outstanding post Vicki ! Ed |

| In a Free World (Better Mix) by mfwmiles | 1 year ago |
I really like the sound of you vox in this version Mike, but I do have a nit about some of the back tracks. While the vocal is much cleaner and clearer, some of the guitar work sounds a bit shrill and harsh to me. That said I do think this is a better mix my friend, and the song itself is well written and performed. Ed |
|
| Still My Heart by Bob6stringer | 1 year ago |
Just keeps getting better and better Bro. Still love it, but even more on this take. Ed |
|
| Orgasms of the Sun by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Very cool track Chris. Love the sound on your guitar, but in particular I like the lyrics and your vocal. The bass and rhythm has a latin feel to it, and I suspect this is about someone in Latin or South America. What ever, it a great track my friend. Ed |
|
| forever by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
Outstanding post Mark, Takes me back to where I used to live, in the 80's. (along with the 60's, and 70's) Great production and mix of some stellar music and singing. Just a fantastic track in all respects. Ed |
|
| In a Free World by mfwmiles | 1 year ago |
| Well, that works for me. I've alway thought that is what we're all about, sharing our freedom with all comers. Very good songwriting and delivery on the vox Mike. I took a copy and have plans to try and add a Bass line, if you don't mind me doing that. I'll let you know if I'm successful by sending you a track. Be well and be cool my friend, Ed |

| Am I Blue by dirigent | 1 year ago |
It always amazes me, the things you can accomplish with your voice, Andreas. A sweet rendition of an all time classic. my friend. Oh yeah, I just remembered, Happy belated birthday. Ed |
|
| Reggae 100 by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Nice production and arrangement Chris. Relaxed, time to go home after a hard days work, song. Love the Raggae feel and your playing on the Bass and guitar, especially the wah effects. Very cool track my friend, I love it. Ed |
|
| You Are The Sunshine Of My Life by zincshed | 1 year ago |
| I like what you've done here Roger, but I have a suggestion. Loosen up the Bass track a little and let it move around some. While it really sounds well played, it also sounds a little to "mechanical" to me and needs a little humanization. Volume changes from note to note, timing slips, that kind of stuff. That may have been the way you wanted it to sound, and I'm no expert, but that's my 2 cents worth. Now the rest of the story. I really love your interpretation on this. The Jazz trio really works the way you played the parts, and I have to admit it really does sound great. That said, I think I'll grab a copy for my iPod, at least until the next version comes out anyway. Thanks for the post Roger ! Be well my friend, and be cool, Ed |

| LOSING MY SOUL by KCsGROOVE | 1 year ago |
| Been there, got that, done the T-shirt. Outstanding music, great message that we can all share from time to time, Cees. The mix is full, but clean and well produced and your playing is at it's stellar best on this one. I'm with Garn, I want to see your name in the light, and I don't mean in a line up either. Ed |
|
| Dark Walk by davisamerica | 1 year ago |
| Well now, this is different. I't also very well done. The sounds are well recorded and mixed, but that not what it's all about. I found myself being dragged into this one from the moment it started. I wasn't sure what I was listening to, but it just kept getting better and better as it went along, So when it was over I'd been taken on a musical journey. Don't know where I went, mind you, but I surely did enjoy the ride. Ed |
|
| joke on me by that80sboy | 1 year ago |

|
| TWIST OF FATE 2 by KCsGROOVE | 1 year ago |

| Can't Put You Down by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Nice throw Chris. Love the harp and guitar working together on this. And your guitar sounds so soooo dirty, I love it. Great lyrics and you vox is right in the pocket man. Outstanding bit of Blues my friend. Ed |
|
| So Light Around You by nlsn | 1 year ago |
| Nice easy laid back feel t this Nelson. Excellent guitar work and backtracks to it, and you vocal is really smooth and mellow. Very cool song my friend. Ed |
|
| Boogie On Reggae Woman by zincshed | 1 year ago |
| Very cool interpretation Roger. All the essential feel is there, in a sparse form. Then piano doing the Sax part is a bit of musical Genius I'd say. But what holds the whole thing together is that Bass. It creates the feel of the original, which makes this so enjoyable. Great track number 2 out of the 2 I've listen to of yours so far tonight. Love it, Ed |
|
| I Wish (Stevie Wonder) - remix by zincshed | 1 year ago |
| If ya gotta do a cover, this would sure be the one to do. Nobody produced sounds like Stevie Wonder did during this time in has career. And since you are doing a cover, might as well do it right, and you did. This is an awesome track be it a cover or not, by any standards. The singer sounds like Stevie, well very close any way, and the band hit all the right feel from the first note on. The Horns and Clav were a great addition, even though I never heard the other version. Doesn't matter, this one is just great. Love it, and since you've so kindly left the download button available, I'm gonna use it to put this one on the iPod. Thanks Roger, love it big time sir Ed |
|
| John Riley by Chordwainer | 1 year ago |
Very well done Chord, Sparse but not a simple back track for the song, allows the song to shine on it's own merits. Very well written, but I was hoping to here her reaction to Hohn's confession about who he was, right there at the end. It would have completed the circle of love she had carried with her in her hear. Grat song as it though, no doubt, Ed |

| Daddy's Little Girl (Little Miss King) by mfwmiles | 1 year ago |
| Oh yeah, I know her, I'm sure of it. met in - - - - - sometime in the late --'s. Damn it's tough getting old and senile. Oh well, maybe it's better not to remember her after all. Nice bit of work Mike, love the backtracks, and some mighty fine lyrics and vox on this one. You got it going on here buddy. Ed |

| East Blues by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
Thanks so much for listening Anto, glad you like how this turned out. I was just trying to relax when I did this one. I managed it too.  Zag, I hope the tooth is getting better now that it's someone else's problem. Come to think of it I hope you're feeling better too. Thanks for the listen, and the Doors comment, that's way cool, my friend  Hi Stan, glad you had a listen my friend. I could teach you, but you really need a Pro to teach you. I'm just a hack with a guitar and just enough knowledge to get into trouble playing it. Thanks for the kind words Stan. Bossman, always a pleasure when you review one of mine. I've always love the sound of a Rhodes myself so we can share that. Thanks for the listen, glad you like the piece  |

| Open the Door by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| Brother Bob, your detailed analysis of what I do sounds good to these old ears. thanks for that, and all the support. Glad this one didn't disappoint and left a good feeling in your ears. Thanks so much John. A little insanity can go a long way. Glad you enjoyed it my friend. Andreas my friend you're always so kind in your assessments on my music, and that is so appreciated. Glad you enjoyed this little Jam. Cees old friend you really know how to make a guy feel good about his work. Glad you enjoyed the Jam and thanks for the kin words |

| East Blues by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| Thanks Cees, that's what I was hoping for on the guitar sound, glad you liked it Bobby, it's good you made it back home safe and sound, (of course there's some doubt about you being sound) thanks for the kind words Bro.Tommy I'm honored that you want this on on your playlist, thanks for that. Dave, what can I sat man, except thanks for listening. Thanks for the lovely comment Donna. It's the singers that make a jam into a song so I really appreciate your comment. Chris, what can I say except thank you. Means a lot to hear you say that my friend. I've been told that before Yves, but not in connection with music. Funny, they never said master of what ! Thanks for the listen my friend.Andreas, you words carry a lot of meaning to me so what you said sits really well on my heart. Thanks for listening and the very kind words. Audi, thanks so much for listening, I appreciate it and the kind words, my friend :-0 |

|
| BIG WHEELS by KCsGROOVE | 1 year ago |
| Wow Cees, This is a killer sound you've got going on here. Love the Guitar interplay and harmonies, but the sound is what really gets me here. It's pristine and full and oh so good. Love this one man it is a killer track. Ed |
|
| ALL LAID IN THE GROUND by Lagusaya2 | 1 year ago |
| A message of truth, Stan. Well delivered and unabashed with some very good harmonies and instrumentation. A simple song about what all of us have waiting at the other end of birth. Excellent my friend. Ed |
|
| tipsy by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
Very funky cool dance track Mark. Love the production you did on this and the vox really worked good in the mix. Love it, even though I normally don't care to dance stuff. I guess this is the exception that proves the rule. Ed |

| Love the lyrics and this is a nice arrangement. Great Baseball song my friend. Ed |
|
| Everything Burns FINAL MIX by mfwmiles | 1 year ago |
| Nice song Mike, you did a good job on the mix and the instrumentation works well for the song. Had a bit of the "Beatles" sound on the vocal in the first line of the Chorus. Add a little harmony there and it would be a lot like the "Beatles" sound. Love the slide guitar in the break in particular, and the rest of the break was very well done. Be well and be cool my friend, Ed |
|
| Angelica by dirigent | 1 year ago |
| Andreas my friend, I love everything you do. this piece has some lovely parts in it that show the love, and some parts that show the hurt and anger. The Guitar and Bass flow smoothly through the piece and anchor it in love, but the synth parts, while at times distracting, do show the conflict of emotions that are in the song and the heart. I like it, and don't like, it all at the same time, which, I suppose is what the song is all about, the conflict of feelings and emotions. So again, I love everything you do, and this is included in that because it causes me to share the feelings that are in the heart, which I suspect is the whole purpose of the song. Ed |
|
| summertime by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
I guess you and that Drum machine were having a really good time, at least from the sound of this. Very nice lyrics, and you vocal deliver fit perfectly. Great little back track keeping the song moving along and is interesting and well played, Mark Good time summer fun song, I love it. Ed |

| FatChance: In Memoriam by georgeptingley | 1 year ago |
| Thank you George For remembering our beloved friend in this beautiful way. A fitting tribute to a wonderful man who will be and is missed. There is a large hole in the musical universe with Geo being gone. One that will never be filled. Ed |
|
| Another White Dash by Vixen | 1 year ago |
| I like you vocal, and how it lays in the bed of music, but I would have mixed the music a little differently than Chris did. His mix is very good mind you, but I hear some things I would have done slightly different mostly in the drums. That said, this is an awesome cover and a great sounding track with lots of drive and energy. I don't think you need to fret over your mixing skills Vicki, you did a great job on this. And Chris' playing is up to the very high standards I've become accustom to expecting from anything he posts. Excellent track from both of you. Kudos Ed |

| Lord, Lord, Lord, Give Me A Break ~~Sloparts Cover by ClayPotts | 1 year ago |
Of course I was gonna give it 5 stars all the way, don't ya know. Love what you did on this Clay, you took it an made it your own, It has that S smoky gin joint kind of feel to your vocals that sells the song right away. You do this in a road weary story telling kind of way, like you telling the crowd at you current gig, about the last drunk you ran into down the road at another place. It's also like you're saying "hey, I'm not in the mood so don't try this here tonight". Love it Clay you did a great job on this remake. Thanks for letting me be a part of it with you. Be well and be cool, Ed |

| He was a Geek with a Guitar by Vixen | 1 year ago |
Well, I had to cast a vote for this one, don't ya know. This is the most fun I've has with my clothes on in years. LunaBleu's lyrics were just too good to not want to put this together, and then Vixen throws that fabulous vocal on top of my backer and Viola, we have a raunchy Country Honk-Tonk song, that gets a smile and a nod every time. Loved working with these two wonderful Ladies, thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to join in the fun. Ed |

| Look for the Rainbow - unplugged by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| I feel that since this is a tribute to Geo, I shouldn't make a big deal out of my part in it. So if you don't mind, I'll simple say thank you here for the wonderful sentiments about George and stay out of the way. Normally I would contact each of you to thank you but it seems inappropriate in this setting. This is for George Couts, our beloved friend and mentor. God Bless you Geo and all the friends you've made here. You will not be forgotten my friend. Ed |

| Return Of The Psychic Octopus's Travelling Medicine Show by zagneek | 1 year ago |
Buddy Emmons meets Chic Corea in Dodge City, Kansas while KraftWork plays the back tracks on sythns in the Saloon, and everyone has more Ale than is required to get a horse Drunk. Love it Zag.

|
| Never ending song of love by kappy | 1 year ago |
nice song John. Love the live feel to it and the way you covered the Bass & Drums worked good. It's pretty hard to get a mix perfect, even when you have each element on a separate track. While the perfect mix, it sounds good and just works for it's live feel. Nice bit of wokr here my friend. Ed |
|
| Merrie England by Chordwainer | 1 year ago |
An excellent song about Merrie Old England that could just as well be about us in the States my friend. Stellar lyrics and vocal delivery with a wonderfully full back track. You can be very proud of this, "folk song" my friend. I think I'll adopt it for us as well, especially since we share so much history over the last 300 years.

| Look for the Rainbow - unplugged by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| George was such a special person, I felt I had to do something to honor his memory. This was the only song I've ever done that seemed to fit. I cried when I posted this and some of my comments about Geo. He was very special to me on many levels. Ed |

| Friendship by guitar55 | 1 year ago |
| Love the opening strains and the sound of the Slide. The vibes in the background are very cool as well. Love when the guitar transitions to overdrive and you tart picking out that awesome lead., with the fingerpicking acoustic in the background. Most excellent piece, Michael Ed |

| 1000 Dreams Come True by epocetep | 1 year ago |
Hi Nick, Love what you've got here, and as an instrumental piece it kind of reminds me of "Pink Floyd". That said, you could take the basic structure of the song and build a lyric the works with each of the changes in that structure. You don't have to make the lyrics the entire length of that section, but have the lyrics follow the structure only as long as it takes that part of the lyrics to make the point. Then move on and do the next part the same way, using only as much of the music as needed to get the point of that part of the lyrics across. When you have the entire song's lyrics written, then make a new version that has only the amount of a musical structure to fulfill the needs of the lyrics for that section, and move on to the next, being careful to blend the sections together so nothing gets in the way of the transition from one lyrical part to the next. Don't know if I've made any sense here or if I'm just rambling, but you did ask, so I offered. Love what you've got my friend, Keep on Ed |

| The Personification Of Sonification by zagneek | 1 year ago |
This sounds more like something that an electronically augmented symphony orchestra would do, zag. very professionally mastered and full of all kinds of wonderful ear candy. I love how you alter the tempo in places, and especially how you leave room in the mix for thing you are doing have a chance to take center stage, whilst others are going away. Very creative use of sounds and loops indeed. that last little Jazz band set was the icing on the cake. Let it be know that I usually take a pass on electronica as most of what I have heard is just noise. But I'm so glad you visited my stuff, so I could return the favor and in so doing discover this wonderful piece of musical art. Bravo zag, this is awesome. Ed |

| Father's Day Tribute by grathy | 1 year ago |
Nice dedication, Mary. Sometimes we don't miss them until later in life. We miss the things lafe has shared with us, and yet we can not shoe them, tell them, or watch their reaction to all that is now and wasn't when they were with us. But I believe that they really ar always with us, as long as they are in our hearts. Very nicely done Mary, Ed |

| Cruising Mulholland by pharmakeus | 1 year ago |
| Nice throw Chris An interesting combination of sounds and moods. Nice clear mix and well produced. I'm not into electronic music very much, but I can sure tell when someone has put a lot of effort into the production of a piece. This is one where it shows. Ed |

| Sonatina In G Major by JoelIrwin | 1 year ago |
Excellent piece Joel, If I was required to grade this I would say it was Grade A+ all the way. It's wonderfully alive in it feel and there is a repeating theme that threads throughout the piece. Brave to you Joel this is a very good work. Ed |

| The Only Time - (Redone) by Sloparts | 1 year ago |
| Awe, don't cry Steve. I promise I'll quit singing if you just don't cry. Thanks for the listen my friend. I'm pleased with the way it turned out with the harmonies, but even then, I think of how good it could be with someone like Roxi, or Alannah was singing the backup harmonies on it, instead of me. Glad you like the way the new version turned out Steve. Thanks again for the kind words, I do appreciate it so much. Be well and be cool, Ed |

| why (when all i feel is pain) by that80sboy | 1 year ago |
| Nice one Mark. Great song and your vocal is spot on. My only nit is that there seems to be a bit too much high end in the drums, even for the deaf guy (me) that has a hard time hearing those particular frequencies. Other than that, it's a great mix and production of a very well done song. Be well and be cool my friend. Ed |

| 2 Steps Back {Goodbye} by RAVENS | 1 year ago |
| Dani, your talents as a singer/songwriter never cease to amaze me. I love you vocals and lyrics, and on this sound bed they are particularly effective. Great track form 404, and you made it even better. Nice work you two, a great collab. Ed |

| The Dimming of the Day (cover) by Vixen | 1 year ago |
Any doubts about your ability to take a song and make it your own, are completely dispelled by this song, Vicki. Love the pristine vocal and the laid back feel of this song. Kevin's back tracks are beautifully done, apparently twice, based on the song info. (Now I know why you chose the name Vixen)Bravo you two for a job very well done. Ed |

| Train by malekey | 1 year ago |
Excellent production on this Chris. I can't pul the lyrics out, (because I don't hear well) so please post the lyrics if you can. That said the vocal sounds great and does the tremolo guitar in the beginning part. And from there it just gets better all the way through. Hell of a song, Chris, I love it. Ed |

| Believe The Power of Belief by Lagusaya2 | 1 year ago |
Simple truth in an elegant form, Stan. Thank you for inspiring me this morning, I needed this reminder, as we all do sometimes. I like the simple unadorned guitar for this song. It's clear, the message is in you heartfelt singing and in the words you sang. Ed |

| THE RIDE by KCsGROOVE | 1 year ago |
| Way cool groove, Cees, and the lyrics say something about the human condition. There are things we can control, and things we cannot. So we do what we can and leave the rest to providence. So, put that top down, let the sun an wind blow through what hair you left, and enjoy the ride. Ed |

| Rainy Day by Tribrix | 1 year ago |
| Though I'm not into 80's dance music, I can tell when a guy takes care and thought when building a song and a mix. It's obvious to me that you did just that. An interesting mix of sound and rhythm, and it sound good to my ears. Ed |

| Within a Turquoise Mist by Gearoid58 | 1 year ago |
Makes me think of my days playing in a party band along the shores of Southern California, particularly around Belmont Shore, Long Beach, Dana Point, and Laguna Beach. That was during the summers of 1965 and 1966. Mellow, laid back and so reminiscent of those day. Easy going, no worries, all we did was concentrate on playing music, and of course the girls at all the beach parties we played at. Oh to be that young and "Innocent" again ! Love the smoothness of the Strat, and the way you moved the tremolo effects around in the stereo field. Nice playing, and superb sound my friend. Thanks for the memories, I needed to see those places and friends again in my mind. Ed |

| Intermezzo IIII by guitar55 | 1 year ago |
Fantastic sound, but I agree, it needs to be expanded into what it could be, a full fledged musical adventure. Love the sound, the bass work, and the production on this, but again I wish it were longer. Time to go back and do the rest of it. Ed |
|
| SOME EASY LOVIN' by KCsGROOVE | 1 year ago |
| Nice and easy, Cees, Love the feel of this. Kind of reminds me of "The Atlanta Rhythm Section' in style and feel. Great track again Cees. I love it, it's going on the old iPod, for sure. Ed |

| The Judas Extinction Malady by Henno | 1 year ago |
| Talk about over the top, this is outrageously good John. drscientist's original track is a killer track to begin with and then you lay down this awesome vox on top. Not my style of music mind you, as you can imagine, but a great piece of work from both of you. Even I can hear that. Ed |

| The Romancer by JoelIrwin | 1 year ago |
Excellent work, especially on such a tight schedule. Everything flows from one part of the piece to the next, with some wonderful passing chords and movement. Kudos to you Joel, for a wonderful job, Ed |
