Wow, wow, wow! Fabulous! What a cool sound, you created and what a perfect mixing it all together! I’m impressed! Chapeau!

@Helen0609 Thank you, Andrea, for taking a listen and for the feedback. Glad you liked the sound and mixing.

@DarrellW

Wowsers Dave, every time you post something it just gets better and better!

I could almost hear a Santana vibe in your solo, magic!
Absolutely loved it!

@DarrellW Hi, Darrell. Glad you liked this one. Vibe like Santana (almost)? I wish I could sound like him. Well, Santana did play a PRS.

@jkahn

That was really good. Having not heard of the song, or Atlantic Rhythm Section, I’ve not got something to compare it to. It stands as a real high quality production what you’ve done.

In your track notes: what is “air”? The only other place I’ve seen that is a button on my Focusrite, but reading the manual for that, it didn’t make much sense to me.

@jkahn @markr31 Thanks, JK. I appreciate the listen and comments.
Markr31 was right, it’s Atlanta not Atlantic. I think that blunder came about as a result of a condition that I have, called A-G-E. Glad you liked the production. Air. Yeah, I have that button on my Focusrite but I’ve never used it. The Drawmer is a compressor used mainly, I think, for mastering. The only time I use it is on guitar tracks with distortion/gain that I want to smooth the rough edges. Air, in places, is described as adding sparkle, but I find it kind of smooths out the distortion and gives me a sound that I prefer.

Hello Dave…this sounds great both your guitar and vocals are soo good! …and the production of the video itself is stunning indeed!

@SILVIA Thanks, Silvia for taking this for a spin and for the nice feedback.
I’ve been with JG since I started and am a true believer that it’s paying dividends. Just listen to the progress of those who have stuck with the program and have put their time in. I really enjoy listening to the progress of many here in the community who are sticking with it and working their way through this journey. And I’ve learned a lot by just listening to the more advanced players that post here.

@LBro Thanks, LB. I wish I could have done the solo that was on the original but my pinch harmonics have a long way to go. If I ever get them down solid, I might revist this one. One day at a time at this point.

That was terrific Dave. I also caught the Santana vibe. Well done, your usual super high standard of playing and production.

Gordon and Adi, Apologies for the late acknowledgement for your feedback. It’s been a tough week.

Gordon, You and Darrell may get looking for a simple Santana, if there is one. Glad you liked the play and production. Thanks.

Adi, Super that you liked the groove and tones. I appreciate the comments.

Hi Dave, another very enjoyable inspirational cover. Not a song that I am familiar with but one that I very much enjoyed. As always the guitar playing and vocals were top notch. Your recording are inspiring me to explore learning all rhythm and lead parts of some songs particularly songs that have never been on my radar that I could learn a lot from them and that look fun to play.
