Positive Comments: Cool song…..easy-going and serene. Unique chord progressions and nice mixing of sections. Nice recording, well captured and great mix. Thoughtful melody that brings the visions of a lazy day in the sun under a canopy of trees in the shade sipping on some lemonade (hey that rhymes!)YOU are to something here…..see below for some constructive thoughts.
Constructive Comments: I think this song is REALLY deserving of a new recording. Here are some thoughts.1. The song is not Delta Blues, in my humble opinion, more a cross-over blues-folk-jazz fusion piece.2. Be SURE to tune your guitar perfectly before recording. Don’t hit RECORD until it is perfect.3. I am (and this is my personal opinion) more prone to wanting to hear this song recorded without the guitar using its on-board electronics. This is such a beautiful, organic piece, a nicely recorded acoustic version would lift this song to another level.4. You have a couple mistakes in the playing that need to be fixed. If you are recording with a DAW program, it is easy to fix those sections and they need to be fixed, because this song would work in many film and TV opportunities, but the playing has to be perfect. The song is so-o-o-o-o good it deserves a perfect execution.5. This is a real unique song and one that will do you well…it shows your talent and potential.Thanks for sharing….I hope these comments help you.PS Does the song have a version with lyrics? It lends itself to it….
