Progressive Rock - First song on Rock Opera!

[Seafroggys]

My only suggestion would be, and of course this is just what I would do if I were recording it myself, is to give it more of a modern touch. If you are using old Jethro Tull stuff as your reference, then you've nailed it pretty well, but even bands that played in the 70's have a more modern feel when they record today, while keeping the style the same.

While I want to use the higher fidelity of modern digital recording, I am not aiming for modern production styles.

I would suggest a little tighter, less roomy sound if you wanted to make it sound like it was recorded today, and probably get a bit more low end in there too. If you are going all out for the 70's style as well as the 70's recording style, then keep doing what you're doing, because you've pretty much nailed it.

I dunno, there's not much room sound in this mix, its fairly up front. Though getting more low end is always a good idea, especially in the stereo mix there's a lot more room for the bass guitar to sit in the center.
