Hey I thought that was pretty good. I liked it. Well played by everybody. Pretty well recorded. I thought the fiddle sounded especially good. Good detail on it.

My only nit is the bass sounded kind of "sterile." No low mids to it. For a "folk type" song like this, I'd like to hear something warmer with a little less attack. Minor thing though.

OK one more thing... Maybe a little boost on the guitar somewhere around 5-7K. Maybe bring out a little more brillance/detail.

Good job.

Very nice. Thanks for posting. I always enjoy listening to your stuff.

Very well done. Sounds great to me. Clarity, separation, punch...it's all there.

This was a more aggressive arrangement than I expected from the opening bits. The percussion kind of caught me off guard, but I adjusted.

I am personally very partial to Spearhead's version of this tune, but I guess there a ton of different ways of going about it. Nice work!
