Thanks for the comments everyone. I'm not a slide guitar player at all and I wasn't really happy with my performance, but I thought the song needed something to take the place of the pedal steel in the original. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out in this mix though. Nice production Tim! I think Bluesberry's harmonica sounds much better in this mix too. It sounds crisper, and I think you added a bit of reverb to it which sounds great.

I used the BR-864's Slow Attack effect on the slide track along with some compression to increase the sustain. The sounds in the first few measures were made by playing natural harmonics at the 7th and 12th frets with the same Slow Attack and Compressor effects as I used for the slide parts.

Anyway, I really like the way this turned out. Tim's production, guitar, and vocals are great. And Bluesberry's sweet harmonica playing is the icing on the cake. Thanks guys!

WELL DONE, Greeny, 64Guitars, and Bluesberry!  Love the slide guitar with the "slow attack," love the harmonica, love the acoustic guitars, love the vox, love the bass.  Did I miss anything?  I think you can tell I love this one!

BRAVO, gentleman. :) :D ;D

I like how this turned out as well. Damn brilliant guys. I think the slide works well even tho you may feel it's not real perfect 64G. Production's pretty good as well altho you did cheat Greeny!

Cheers,

Great cover......great production.
I get frustrated trying to get two guitars and vox mixed to my satisfaction. How you guys do it so well with more tracks and sending takes back and forth just blows me away.
Just a roadie again.....

Just listened to this for the first time this morning. Great job guys.  And fine job, Tim, mixing a project with a lot of parts. Love the blues harp and slide!
