Broadjam Artist: Nigel Barrett
Song: Tenderly
Reviewer: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Positive Comments: Reminds me of a David Foster type arrangement. Takes some genuine talent to ever have that association. I feel the passion in this track. The performances are real, I can hear the attention to detail in the bass lines, tom fills, string lines and vocal performance. I LOVE THAT. TY Love the ending too… teh guitar reverb and echo is awesome, reminds me of Toto, Journey or Pink Floyd!!
Constructive Comments: Vocal intonation issues throughout. Also vocal could use a little more reverb and eq. I would brighten it up slightly. Also many words pop out then about midway (2:35) the vocal jumps out super loud and dry. I know we are all limited to our situations but a full live band doing this ‘Rock Ballad’ justice works in my book. recording sounds ‘old’.. late 90s? Early 2000. My only problem was the vocal, mostly production. It stuck out so bad that it distracts from the song. I was loving the backing tracks though… I the little touches, the keyboard break around 3:30, just so classic rock, my roots.
