"Everybody Tighten up Now" This is a cool instrumental of this classic by Archie Bell and The Drells! You have captured all the "good feel" elements of the original. Good work, Gary!

Great flow to this tune. Well written and very nicely done. Your vocals are enchanting. There is something special in your vibrato, a signature kind of thing, perhaps. Wonderful vocals. And...

This is aVERY catchy song. THANKS for sharing... 
This tune has great bones, Carl. A very well-written tune. I dig the lyrics, too. Interesting throughout. I am diggin the bass, as well. Would love to hear this after you get it polished up a little, too. Mighty fine tune, Carl.

Heh, no, actually my overblown Hawkwind adulation doesn't go _quite_ as far as having a Westone guitar.
I wrote the music in 1994 with -- no surprise -- an explicitly early '90s Hawkwind vibe in mind. My band's original demo from that period didn't really do it justice as I imagined it, so on this recording I tried to take it closer to what was in my head all those years ago. Yeah, I need to work on the mix, change a few things in the drums perhaps, and maybe re-record a few of the shakier moments of vocals (though my desire to improve things is always at war with my vast capacity for sloth ....
Ah,psychedlic rock,well home turf then
Very nice intro again,the bass riff in was SOOO cool,and the crunching guitar was the finishing touch.
You really can feel the Hawk's influence in this one.
I am wondering about that guitar,what make?
Is it the hallowed Westone of Brock???
Felt right at home with this right from the start,that D pattern does it for me,.
There is even a Brockesque lead hiding in there as well...
Bring it up a tad,it's working great.
Nice break down in the rhythms after as well.
ULTRA cool bass work as well!!
Solid gold stuff.

I hear what you're saying about the stereo separation -- I've actually been thinking a lot about how to approach this in the last week or so. I quite often record two rhythm guitar tracks and slam them hard left and right; I've thought about recording another rhythm guitar here and doing just that, but I kinda like the vibe with the single rhythm guitar. I've been thinking of trying to move it somewhat to the right -- but maybe not _too_ hard -- and shunting the synths a bit to the left. (I'm kinda audially "visualizing" a band on stage with a guitarist on one wing and a synth player on the other, with the singer in the middle.) I might try that and see how it goes.
And, yeah, I'll try pulling the vocals up.
Mmm, I'm gonna want that chopper for the triumphant music video!
Awesome! I am impressed with this song and what you did to this. Great movie soundtrack kind of stuff. I pictured a social renegade tearing down the highway on a chopper, hair blowing in the wind. Oh yeah. Music is pretty darn good.
I usually review these without reading the other reviews, so, without reading what others have said, I think this song could be made even better with some separation in the instruments. Everything seems to sit in the middle, or darn close to it. Don't be afraid to pan stuff hard left and hard right. The lead solo doesn't stand out as well as it should and I think that's because the driving chorded guitar smothers it without separating them. Also the vocals could come up a bit in the mix.
This song really took off after the nice spacey intro. It rocked in a way I didnt expect it to, but that is a great thing to suprise your listeners. I dont know where you re at as far as recording and mixing skills, but I think the song could be remixed so that the instruments and vocals are clearer, and more distinctive. The mix sounded almost like it was in mono. I think it needs more "breathing space". Good creative songwriting, excellent lyrics, and loads of energy, thatnks for posting this!
Nice work. It has a classic 60's west coast sound to it. Good rockin tune.
You got some GREAT Reviews which peaked my interest even more tha normal. I mean, I love to hear new music anyway....BUT!!! I had to hear where this went. Yea, caught me by surprise too. Very COOL!! You have a little of the 60's garage band feel. You should feel strong about your vox. You did a GREAT job with them. Nice ROCKIN' Song and very well done!
Rob
Strong rockin vibes... the track really pulls you in around the 3:44 mark...would have to agree about the vocals being a bit too far back.. but hey it's rockin roll....enjoyed!
I was never a vocalist in any band I was in, and I'm always very nervous about my singing -- I always mix the vox too far back at first!
