I like it Eddy, but the intro lead stuff... mmmm, has to go.
I didnt even know for sure what it was at first. FOr a second I was like, 'what the? is that teriibly played harmonica?'.
I like the tune, but I do NOT like that into volume swelly lead thing.

cheers.

Great rockin beat, would be better served with a cleaner lead sound.

The attack delay kinda thingie on the intro sounds like a really bad mistake to me. The rest is okay, if a lil predictable. You played it well.

N/A is the song , right? I liked the chorusy-flange effect. A little too harsh on the rythym guitar imho.

Dig it, man. I like it, with the intro and all, but I think the rhythm was a bit too loud. Maybe lower it and pan it a bit to one side.

Gotta get some bass on there to balance all the high end guitar work. You've got an abundance of fast licks from beginning to end. Write a song where you start out REAL sparse and GRADUALLY get busier and busier. In other words save the best for last. You're a helluva guitar player. It's almost like you've got all this music bottled up inside of you for years and you're letting it burst out all at once. Overall I like the originality of your playing. I can't believe there aren't other quality musicians in Richmond who would like to work with you. good luck...

The second one, the drummer and bass player where drunk and got in a fight in the parking lot before we even played. I do have another guitar player that wants to work on origanals, startiingng after Christmass. I am buythiing a bass . And your right I tend to just rip evrrythig. I am hoping the piano lesons will help me moore with writing and melodys. Thanks for your input Bob.PEACE I somehow screwed up the little quote bar

Good Guitar skills, good musical mind, I'd like to hear the whole package condensed into song complete with lyrics it would do more justice to you playing I think.

Good luck in your search.

Bass player and drummer drunk? You should screen any prospective band members: NO DRUNKS ALLOWED, PERIOD. Nothing good ever comes with playing with alcoholics. (I hope you're not a big drinker). You've got way too much skill to screw around with deadbeats. If I lived in Richmond I'd come and jam with you. Maybe even put some lyrics to your tunes and come up with solid bass-lines to balance your material. You need a dependable bass player and drummer to back you up. Do you ever go to any of the jam sessions in town? You might open up some eyes with your ability to rip. And you might meet some sober musicians as well. Have a great New Year (and catch a lot of catfish!)...

Yeah Funkit laid me back in my chair waiting for more when it was over -surprised when it was over - too soon (a real good thing)
I've already commented on the 2nd one-- the 3d song only comes out of one channel.. might want to look at that..
