I think this live version is better than anything we could have ever cooked up in my basement no matter how much wine we drank.
Thanks to Gene's help, this remix has a lot more definition.
Bottom line, it's better when everyone comes together to contribute.

Am I the only one who thinks this recording needs to be cranked up to between -10 and -15 dbs? I have the tools to boost this and at the same time eliminate any hiss/floor noise that might get boosted as well, if y'all are interested. Just say, "go for it" and tell me where to send the edited file.

Outstanding . . .
I can hear Melissa and the rest of us harmonizing. Colin's bass is keeping us together and Scott's mandolin just brings it over the top.
Great song and lots of fun!
Happy Sunday Alonetoner's.
I wrote this song yesterday as I had some recent events to ponder.... I hope you like it. Trying for a bit of a bluesy feel. If you'd like to download it and add some background blues bass or guitar, or harmonies…

I start smiling every time your voice pans to the other speaker. That's fun!
Nice song. Andrew has the stuff. I think he's right on, although it may not stop Colin and I adding a little something.
Think of it as putting plastic Pink Flamingos in the yard. It may not add much, but you just feel good about it.

This is my first upload. I mostly have a vocal here. It's a song that I'd love to get some collaboration on from the guitarists in the community. Let me know what you think?

I created this track after uncovering the bassline first, realising it was one of those riffs that could go on and on. I didn't get bored of it so must be ok! Then came the hard work of writing something interesting over it. The main melody came…

After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!

Comments on Colleen Dillon's stuff
You have a sweet voice.
I can relate.

Thanks to Gene for his help! This new version sounds much better!!!!!
Hi Gene! Thanks for the offer. I sent you a separate message with my contact info. I'd appreciate it very much!

Greta tune Colleen...I love the lyrics, you guys sound really good together...wish I could have been there to jam....
You two are on a roll. Very nice-- to all in your group… always love mandolins.
Outstanding . . . I can hear Melissa and the rest of us harmonizing. Colin's bass is keeping us together and Scott's mandolin just brings it over the top. Great song and lots of fun!
Can't wait to hear your live version of this!
Does it for me....
My wife would love this.
When I get a chance, I'll play along with my harp to see how it sounds with it. Nice sound!
Ha!! Thanks Greg! Looks what happens when you show me how to use the mixer tools!!!

Thanks so much Gene! I really appreciate the supportive feedback.
I agree with what Andrew Russe -- this one doesn't need anything else!
Thanks Andrew! Much appreciated!
I know you can probably hear the "other stuff" - but I kinda like these unaccompanied ones, your voice easily carries the whole thing.
What a voice! Looking forward to hearing more.
