Hmm, not sure why the player is not showing up

All sounds good. From an arrangement perspective, I think the guitars are needlessly jumbly and not compelling in the intended way, but that it a matter of taste. Your tones are clear, and the space is well used.

Thanks for taking the time to listen. I appreciate all comments. I agree that taste comes in to place here because there's a quite a few people loving the guitars so it's nice to hear from a different perspective. Other than the instruments this was made completely on a small budget as like most music these days, but I'm pretty happy with the result.

Good production. I like hearing old covers that were originally recorded in analog. Technically this tune is as good as good or in some ways, such as the clear kick, better than the original. But isn't it something how those old recordings almost breath because of tape. Nice work. How much for the master if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for the kind words! Much appreciated. I definitely agree about tape, maybe someday I'll incorporate it somewhere.
I'll have to get back to you on the mastering costs because my buddy payed for the mastering and the rights to the songs. We have a few more coming soon for a 4 song ep. Simple Man and Saturday Night Special, and Pete Mathews at Ardent Studios is doing Needle in the Spoon. That Saturday night special was no easy task. What a song.

Nice one. It requires balls to seriously take on a giant of any given genre and this is definitely one for the southern rock genre. It's tough because it won't ever be heard as just what it is, it'll always be in comparison to the original (and Tom Dowd is dead so you can't get him to produce it.) Particular van Zandt's distinctive vocal style.

But I think you did a nice job. On the guitars, they work for me. I don't think that they need to be up front and clear, it's more of just a wall o' guitar backwash over which the featured instruments/vocals can float.

And that lead guitar part, don't you wish you thought of that one? It's a classic. Play it anywhere in the south and you are guaranteed to have people waving lighters and crying in their beers. And you turn into the 50 Foot Guitarist of course when playing it.

Spot on about the guitars. That's what our thought was in our pre-production. We wanted a classic sound modernized mostly by the drums and room enough for the vocal to play thru. But 99% of the drum sound is natural. Only sample used was blended in with the snare to add some weight and body that the snare we used just didn't have. Thank you for your time and feedback!

And you are right on about the southern crowd! The one and only song I completely reject doing is Free Bird. lol
