YOU HAVE A GOOD BLUSEY VOCAL. ON THE EARLIER VERSES THERE IS A
BIT TO MUCH LEAD GTR GOING, MAYBE A FEW STABS SO YOUR VOCAL
ISN'T COMPETING. ALSO THE RYTHM GTRS COULD BE BROUGHT DOWN A
BIT TO LET YOUR BASS AND DRUMS COME THROUGH. ALL A SIDE OF ME
BEING BITCHY, I CAN SEE PEOPLE GETTING IN TO THIS ON A LIVE
PERFORMANCE. ALSO PULLING THE CORD FROM THE JACK...COOL.

is well taken.

I too found the lede guitar competing too much with the vocals. But cut
that back and you've got a dandy. Excellent set of words and music.

Is that Zyrra's Roadhouse? :)

I didn't really futz with the mix on this one much, and tried to play the
licks under the vox in a kind of playing off manner, but the truth is,
you're both right, they need to come down.

Yes, Snow, it is "Zyrra's" but she'd rather I not call it that - was using
that as the working album title - I'm going to put the roadhouse stuff
together. To make her feel more comfortable with it, I'm going to call it
"Roadhouse Ranch and Saloon" - it's a group thing.

Need to get a couple more roadhousey things cooking, to get this
finished off, but right now working on a kind of ELPish ballad thing...
will probably post the progress on that one too.
