The bigger issue for me is the vocal mix. &#8220;Down East&#8221; sounds like a bad edit, where the vocal jumps up and bites you, instead of a smooth transition into a lush background.  There&#8217;s some kind of clipping (way too much treble??) that detracts from the beautiful tone of the singer.  I would re-do that completely as it has lot of potential.  SMOOOOOTH it out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: John WalradtSong: Down East in a Harbor TownReviewer: Bob BirthiselPositive Comments: Excellent chord progression and melody.
