Re-worked Jacks and Queens

[Farrell Jackson]

It's back......this is a song that Gary Carciello and I have collabed on. Gary did most all the music and I've added lyric and all the vocals. I also added the middle guitar solo using a VOX SDC 33 guitar into an Akai compression pedal and Pocket POD direct to the board. This song has about 14 tracks in it.

Jacks and Queens

1.. I see you there..... across the room
Surrounded by guys.....ready to zoom
Here comes your glance.....floating on air
Should I grab hold....or let it hang there

2. Could this be......the real deal
I'm feeling lucky .......ready to steal
I'm gonna call your bluff.....see if you blink
I nod my head.... you give me a wink

(Chr) One eyed jacks .....and queen of hearts
Can be winners..... from the very start
Pair them up.... give them a name
Deal the cards......let's play this game

3. Here's a match.....that needs a spark.
If we don't strike it ...love's forever dark
Could it be.....just a passing thought
I don't think so...it feels too hot

4. Walk this way.....you've got nothing to lose
You'll never know.....unless you pay your dues
Every bluff.....deserves no regrets
It's so easy....just lay down your bet

(Chr) One eyed jacks .....and queen of hearts
Can be winners..... from the very start
Pair them up.... give them a name
Deal the cards......let's play this game

Got all excited there for a monment...

Got all excited there for a moment...

Thanks Paul. I figured since the song hadn't received any plays and that I wasn't satisfied with this mix, it was a good time to remove it for a rework  . It doesn't seem possible to completely remove the topic or at least I don't know how to do that. So I just removed the content. But the song will be back, hopefully in a better form in a couple of days.

Thanks again for checking!

Ok I feel better about this song and mix now...it needed something more so I added a few more tracks and then re-mixed it.

Thanks for the good words Alex, Geir, Hook , and Paul!

Paul I did use an individual tracks manual 50hz cut with this mix but not on every track. I applied it to all the vocals, guitars, and bass. It did make a big difference in the clarity and let each track have better presence in the mix. Thanks for posting that process AndyR! I also did my standard roll off of 80hz and 14k hz from the entire mix.
