Song: I’D BE A RICH MAN NOW
Reviewer: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Positive Comments: Yeah, sweet intro. Vocal is sweet. Nice use of sounds creating the rhythm track. Vocals are superb, especially the bridge. Loved the harmonies. The guitar playing and tone is exceptional! I liked the fade, it was a bit long but the curve felt very good and with the sweet guitar it DID make me want to hear more!
Constructive Comments: I enjoyed the cello parts that came in a couple sections but it felt out of place. Maybe an accordion or organ or fill up that string section or change the sound. A full string section would fill it out and still blend with the background vocals. Something about the triangle that bothered me, I think because the part is one that might be traditionally be played by the ride that it’s messing with my drummer brain. This is just me being weird and picky but I the panning on the percussion was again troublesome for me. The fact that the cross stick is to the left and the triangle thing there was a bit of a disconnect rhythmically which comes from guys like us doing all the parts. My songs suffer melodically. Anyways… I totally loved the song! Earl you are the man!! I truly admire your song writing and vocal arranging.
