Jake Dollery "Angel In A Storm"

[Jake Dollery]

Here's another one for you. I originally wrote this one about my wife (now ex) back in 1999 but this recording is from 2008. I wasn't overly happy with the ending but I think it just about holds up...

Nice Changes, so emotional...Love it!
Are you playing all the instruments as well?

[Jake Dollery]

Yeah, I have a go at it all (apart from the drums - I program them on an Alesis SR16)

[Greeny]

You're a very fine singer and songwriter. I can really hear you throwing your heart and soul into the vocal. Some superb guitar work and mixing too. I really enjoyed it. The ending was a bit sudden, but there's nothing really wrong with that.

[Ferryman_1957]

Great song, nice powerful guitar work as well. There's some good dynamics here in the way the song builds. The ending is certainly a bit sudden but as Tim says, it works.

On the production side, the overall balance is great but the vox sounded a little thin and toppy for me, the recording lost a bit of power in the mid range frequencies. I didn't feel the recording does your excellent vox justice but its only a minor point.

Cheers,

Nigel

Nice cool song, very heartfelt !! --> sounds great, maybe bring the vocals up in the mix or what Nigel said actually!  I'd bring the lead solo up as well

[Glenn Mitchell]

Good stuff.
 I like the instrumentation choices and production ideas.
Great emotion.
I'll be watching for your stuff.

Thanks M_Glenn_M

I've already posted half a dozen tracks and I've plenty more to follow (when I can be bothered to re size the files)

All the best
