Hi guys,
It's been a long time since I've posted. Most of the active users right now won't know me, I've been listening to and enjoying many of you for a while now but, have not posted because I was unable to record myself. I've had some problems and lost everything I owned. I finally have a way to record again and am posting a piece.
"What's Up" jazz solo

This is my first time recording with a mic. First time recording accoustic guitar, I usually play electric, and used to direct line. There is a mistake at 00:28, my hand wanted to go higher on the neck.
I call it a jazz piece but it is really soloing on an accoustic guitar played over the main accoustic part to 4 Non Blondes "What's Up". The drums are just a basic 8 beat, no fills, just my basic click beat. You really can't tell it's "What's Up" it sounds spanish at times.
I think it sounds pretty good as far as the basic mix goes, (it's so simple there's not much to mix) there's 3 tracks, drums, rhythem, and lead.
I don't have much of a system to listen to my mix on, I could use the ears of you guys to tell me if it is alright. Should I use some compression on the lead guitar or just leave the dynamics for flavor? I didn't use anything except for a reverb on the final mix.
Thanks
