Yes, I'm listening again. I like the chordal coloration, voice overs and instrumental melody in Pardon Me.
Smoking makes me think of drone strings and open tuning. I've got really crappy speakers on my computer, were you using open tuning? Nice slide! Got any more?
Your songs are meaningful, honest and full of heart. Do you have a band?

Hi Jes,
I'm listening as I write. I feel as though I know what you mean. I mean, I feel like your songs a lot. I don't know what that feeling is. It's hard to put in words but you've done a great job of it.
You've got a great voice and although I like the conversational style of your songs I am left wanting to hear something more. Something more vocal? Maybe work in some contrast to break up the song in sections. Change. Ummm....what's the word I'm looking for? Variation, rhythmic variation in the guitar part, bass runs, arppegios? Basically, good songs, great vocal ability and music is definitely where you should be. I wish I could write like that!

Hey Jes
Its your dad. We went down to Harbor House last Fri. and got the beds laid to The Call, Rachel is Weeping, Winds of Change, and The Piper. No vocals as yet and still have a lot of "punch-ins" and over tracks to do, but all in all, it went ok.
Got to the studio at 9:10 am, Steve and I didnt leave until 10:00 pm lol Long day.
Hope all is well for you. You can call your old dad every now and then. lol
take care
