Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: If I’d Take My Turn

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Very nice song. I particularly enjoyed the fiddle, in there. Loved the overall presentation, including the hook. Great job.

Constructive Comments: I didn’t hear a chorus in there. I saw different refrains, but no standard chorus, from which to draw. I enjoyed your song, overall and would love to hear from you in the future. Nice job.

Song: ANGELS

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Amazing song. Being a vocalist myself, I usually don’t listen much to instrumentals, but thank you for allowing me to revisit that decision in my life. I loved all the different instruments just kind of melting into one song. They all complimented each other, so well. Great job.

Constructive Comments: I can’t think of anything I would bring to your attention. This song is good to go. I loved it very much. I would love to hear more from you.

Broadjam Artist: Peter G Olach – PGO
Song: Voyageur

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Amazing instrumentation. I especially loved the flute. You don’t hear flutes much, anymore. Your voice is very unique. I enjoyed the quality of it. Very nice job.

Constructive Comments: Very nice song, but I had to really listen hard to hear your words. Even then, I couldn’t make out every word. Perhaps if you could enunciate a little better. I just feel that your song deserves to be heard in its entirety. You have a message to convey, Lets give it every opportunity. Besides that, wonderful song. As I said, I really like your voice, and would love to hear more from you. Great job.

Song: Stuck in my Head

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Beautiful as an instrumental. Loved the piano, and the minimal amount of drums. Very peaceful song. Awesome job.

Constructive Comments: What can I say. There have only been a handful of songs that left me speechless, and this one was one of them. I would listen to this anytime I wanted to zone out, and take it easy or just take a nap. Very relaxing. This isn’t usually my genre, but I’d love to hear more from you. Top notch.

Song: DIXIELAND BABY!

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Enjoyed your song. It definitely has a ’60s or early ’70s sound to it. Great vocals and melody. Great job. Sounding very marketable.

Constructive Comments: Very nice song. However, the verses were almost a little sing-songy. A little bit monotonous, the way they went back and forth. Great words, and melody on the chorus. I enjoyed it, overall. Would love to hear more from you.

Broadjam Artist: Soul Bind
Song: Skeletons

Reviewer: Doug Mayberry

Positive Comments: Love the guitar solos, and your voice is very commercial. Very original concept. Overall, I loved the song.

Constructive Comments: The chorus was a little monotonous, maybe add some artistic license in there to break up that monotony. That’s the only constructive thing I have to say about it. Very nice job.

Broadjam Artist: StarburstRecords
Song: The Fiddler with fiddle playing

Reviewer: Jeff Ashbaker

Positive Comments: Nice tale that harkens back to old old days.Great fiddle that really makes the song come alive and of course adds to and reinforces the song’s story. The guitar is palyed with conviction and support the main instrument well.

Constructive Comments: Nice job, nothing to add.

Broadjam Artist: Randy Steward
Song: You and I

Reviewer: Jeff Ashbaker

Positive Comments: Has a nice vibe, reminds me of a 50’s song. Tell the story of life and a new life as well.

Constructive Comments: Maybe a harmony vocal to add to the together aspect of the song.

Song: DIXIELAND BABY!

Reviewer: Charleeboy

Positive Comments: Love the originality of the song. I like the vocalists singing style. The feel off the song is quite upbeat also. The licks and instrumentation is quite interesting also

Constructive Comments: I think there are a few timing issues in the playing, I understand it made add to the authenticity of the track, but the timing in places is very off. It instruments are quite well mix, but the mix need a bit more body. The vocals are not as well produced as the instruments
