The only time I find a critique offensive is when it says something like "You Suck" and gives no
input on how to improve. Your critiques are very constructive and well received. I guess what I
was trying to say is I'm very well aware of certain limitations I have vocally and will keep trying
to improve.

I've been on this forum only a short time
but long enough to know that you
do not lack ability or skill.
My brief visit to the Sunday Song Writer's board
confirmed that.

Sorry if I was out of place.
I would be interested in the results of "the experiment" though.
Don't give up after the first try. . . or the 30th.
(after the 30th, OK, you can try again next year)
What an awesome thing it would be to develop that vocal sound though.
But like most things, it's just a matter of priority.

I could tell you that I could not do it even if I had your voice because
living in Miami, the noise would probably bring complaints from the neighbors
followed by the police.

And in Miami, there is no such thing as a basement (too build a studio).
Basements quickly turn into indoor swimming pools.

Glad to be of service.
#2 He really has a laid back and original vocal style Due mostly to my lack of ability and skill.

On the same line I like all of kenrogers2's suggestions but some voice lessons
and maybe a better quality mic might do more to correct some of those issues.

Anyways it was an awesome project.
Kalle and Dog did all the hard work and both sound Great.

I love it. I've listened to it now about 5 times.
I was wondering what the voice would sound like, if you stepped back from mike and belted it out
or turn down the mike recording level and put some meat into it.
You might get a gravelly sound to it which is kinda cool sounding.
I'm thinking of blues singers,
they're putting their all into it
and that means reaching down and forcing it.
Working their diaphragm hard.
I'm picturing "wiping the sweat from the brow with a hanky" blues singer
and the sweat is from working the diaphragm I suppose.
Or J. Joplin standing on her toes to pull that note (or voice riff).
Anyway, I thought it would be worth experimenting.

Don't get me wrong, you're voice is good.
But it's laid back. You are making it too easy on yourself.
That's my two cents anyway . . . just suggesting an experiment with your voice.
Make it 6 times I've listened.
Good job guys and well done with all the work you did in putting it together.
It was worth it.]]> Hear Here KR2 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/thinkin-blues/#post-289002 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/thinkin-blues/#post-288998 Wed, 16 Apr 2008 16:29:16 +0000 Was eating breakfast and dropped my doughnut while listening to it,

so now I've got the,

I dropped my doughnut on the floor blues . . . .
and I'm going to be taking it out on you . . .
Rolled under the table and before I could get it . . .
My doughnut, my doughnut the dog done et.
Ooooooo
The dog done et my doughnut blues
And it's all because of you, because of you.]]> Hear Here KR2 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/thinkin-blues/#post-288998 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/thinkin-blues/#post-288988 Wed, 16 Apr 2008 14:25:58 +0000

A really cool use of my backing track.

Smoke . your lead guitar work is exellent as always.
Celt, your lyrics and Vocal is very good and really fits the style of the song.
