Great track mullion. Was browsing whilst listening and totally forgot this was a ccMixter mix, thought it was just one of my itunes tracks, sounds well produced.

Did you get the Yellow Jackets for christmas then ?

The chorus flies its really fresh. The levels overall seem to go up and down throughout the song but the arrangement is really good.

It’s not about the tricks and geegaws. It’s about accompaniment. So many of the great soul songs work not because they’re backed with 128 tracks, but because the backing adds to the vocals and gives the vocals a setting.

Here you keep Frank’s vocal as the star of the show, and don’t try to show us how your mixing geegaws could cascade everywhere. You just show us a look into how wonderful a traditional melody can be when a capable mixter hears the soul deep in its body.

Songboy sees the “magic in your eyes”, but here the magic is the good folk-magic of a musician who hears the groove in a vocal and takes blood-oath to preserve it rather than overwhelm.

A solid, delightful mix.

Really nice. Supports and augments the emotion present in Frank’s voice beautifully.

It’s always impressive to me when mixters can leave a few elements out there on their own, or better still use a little silence now and again. You’ve worked all that really well here. Great job.

great backing track for a superior vocal. plenty of room for each instrument in the mix. reminds me of cece & bebe’s productions. nice.

Yes - this absolutely counts for something.

You’ve done something very special here. You have a very complex chord progression - but where it’s sometimes been distracting in the past it feels quite natural here and fits just right.

I agree the sound levels are sometimes a bit off, but I promise you that’s a very nice problem to have if that’s the only issue with a track!

Delightful remix. Thanks for sharing this one.

You mentioned it already that this version is not perfectly worked out. Funny thing, but the sound is like some of very old tunes from our rehearsal room(lomg time ago!) where we recorded just with an old tape. That_s no critic, just a memory that came across.

Despite of this, this is a very nice and wonderful version with plenty good ideas and nice played instruments!!

Many people here already spoke on the “unfinished” nature of this mix (after your own comment). In my opinion we should divide the beauty itself of a composition from the polishness and pro nature of the remix-mastering stage. This song is beautiful, very beatufiul, well played with rhodes guitar and drums doing it so nice and well, I downloaded it immediately and listening all the time. Still, I am with you, this is an unfinished mix, someone may like the not-polished sheen, but I frankly think that if you take the time to master it well it would easily get an editor pick. Do it please!!(if you have no time you might also upload the individual tracks so that some people in this forum like Loveshadow or Lasswell could bring this mix of yours to where it deserves).
Sincerely admired,

Excellent Rodes Mullion!!! The whole production is very very nice… congratulations

love that rhodes. rich textures really fit frank’s vocals very nicely. my only small nit is i wish the drums were a bit louder in the mix, but that’s minor. really well executed.
