I really like the song.
I think the bass is a little too loud, and the rhythm guitar and vocals could be up a little.
This is a great blues song though. The recording sounds good to me, but I dont really know a whole lot about recording so take it w/ a grain of salt.

Cool tune variaxman. I agree with ziplock43: bass too loud, rhythm and vocal too low. Maybe just my personal preference but I'd like to hear the vocal more focused to the center.

I like the louder bass myself, as it's a change. Vocals are too quiet. Center them, and make them louder...then see about the bass taking too much.
Fun tune, dude...most excellent work....

Cool jam tune V-Man - I like the break down around 1:40.... The vocals could come up a bit for me. But I couldn't help but think it is mixed like a live show would be....so maybe not so far off....
Nice playing and singing too.....

Good jam! The bass and kick are indeed just a tad big. Not huge, just big. But yeah, center up and dry out those vox, you'll see a remarkable change... Octave doubled guitar is a little pitchy (ran to the sharp side a tad...)
Fun, big ol' bombastic jam though! Great energy, presence, and power!

Hey guys, thanks a lot for the feedback....it pretty much sounds unanimous that the vox are to low so I will be kicking em' up a bit .....kinda split on the bass tho' personally I like the sound of a loud aggressive bass being a huge fan of the power trio type bands like Gov't Mule Cream Hendrix etc...
Was actually trying for a Allan Woody (rip) from Gov't Mule type bass vibe...think I may leave it as is for now and hear if it mixes better with the vocals up....I will kick the harp up a bit tho' and maybe a bit more reverb on it as well...
Thanks again...you guys rock!

If you leave the bass big, pull some <31HZ out of the kick, and pull some 62Hz out of the bass, it will clarify things a bit and it won't sound quite so "woofy". The bigness that I hear is mostly an overbalance of EQ, not necessarily a mix issue...

This song has balls. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to variaxman again.

The music is so Foghat and ZZ Top!! Kick ass !!
The slide and the harmonica are awesome....get down blues baby!
The beat is right on and I love the bass loud !!

Kudos Lil Pedro and the Seedpickers...you have rocked the house down again.

Very tight band. Vocal has an old timey feel, almost like classic jazz from the 20s. Rhythm gtr needs more bite for clarity. Great gtr playing. The pitch effect on the lead at 1:24-1:40 doesn't seem to fit IMO. The following gtr phrase - nice.

I love the big arsed bass.
The vox could be centred + it & the harmonica lifted a little.
Cool tune with lots of ooomph.
Undecided about the lead effect.
Nice work man or variax!

HUGE energy here! Great jam!
I'll echo the others - I'd want the vocals right in your face when they're running.
I'm a sucker for slide guitar myself...

Thanks man...appreciate it!!\
Foghat & ZZtop eh? I'll tka that any day...Foghat was huge growing up in the 70's were I lived....
The singer on this is a old buddy of mine from way back...we have been in a few bands together...presently just started working together on some collab's....glad ya dug it!!
Thanks Tim! Yeah, i have kinda mixed feelings on that part...it is actually 3 tracks of me playing that part in diffrent ocataves...kinda wanted a Zeppelin vibe, but yeah,it kinda sticks out..we may cut it and through some more harmonica in there leading into that single guitar phrasing thing....eq'ng the guitars have been a bitch...theres a lot of them
...definetly still trying to get some improved definition on those!Thanks for the feedback!Thanks Ray...yeah I am a big fan of loud aggressive bass as well!Those vocs will be kicked up and centered in the remix....harp as well!
Thanks Treeline! Yeah, I love slide as well...Bands like The Allman Brothers, Soony Landreth, Derek Trucks etc.. I wanna play slide soooo bad!!I just cant really play much more then chordal things...still practicin' tho' and one day I'll get it!Glag ya dug the tune!!

I'm no blues fan and I usually stay away from blues, cause it bores the hell out of me, but I listened to your tune, and it's pretty Good! The only thing I would change is CEntering the vocals. Other than that it's really good stuff!

Thanks man! I agree about the vocals...I actually just posted a remix, and tried to center the vocals more, as well as bring them up in the mix...also added some verb to the harp and brought that up in the mix as well...the link at the top of the thread plays the new version.
