Terrific stuff really.  It is so overwhelming it is hard to comment on something this fantastic.  That ending solo is just perfect.  This would be the standout track on many a bands albums.

I really enjoyed the guitars... and I'm jealous of the ability displayed on the solo.
I think the vocals are lost in the chorus section or the third stanza. It was hard to make them out and I was thankful for the lyric sheet.
Overall, I liked the song quite a bit but would love to hear the vocals a bit more clearly.

Thank you friends for your great comments, feedback, and encouragement!!  This is a bit of stretch for me, but I actually enjoy recording this kind of music.  I do agree that my vocals were starting to get lost in the mix, especially towards the end, same with the drums, but i barely was able to get this mastered to mp3 because of the SD card errors...talk about frustration, but i feel better today lol

I just took both Sandisk 2G SD cards back to Best Buy and picked up a 16G Flash Drive so that I can re-use my 6 existing 1G Kingston SD cards, which work fine.

I definitely will work on the mix some more and maybe post at a later date.  Since I've been putting more time into my vocals, i may do an unplugged version of the song and then add in the other 2 verses that didn't make this cut.

Thanks again everyone for listening and commenting!!

WOW!  Such drama!!  Love the strength in this tune.  Your voice is great and I love how the tune builds.   You really did a nice job on this.

Great Job as usual Satch....guitar is supreme!

Satchwood

Wow what an honor to get the fmgwabp from ORH ~ thank you Jim!!  Thanks also to John B, I'll be checking out your new tune later ~ welcome aboard!  Thank you Hank, I'm glad you liked my guitar work on this! 

Thank you all for listening, i hope the singing was ok as well ~ i've been working on it.........

I spent several hours last night doing a re-worked version of this song (more unplugged) with the extra verses, but just got burned out on it ~ so I guess I'll move on and then possibly come back when things gel again...
