''Good Chicago style playing, liked it. Guitar interplay threw you a loop, need to tighten it up. Mix was good but overall volume a little low on my cans. Or maybe Brobob's before you was too loud. Yeah, that's it.''

''I liked the Harp playing,nice tone and up front in the mix loud and proud through that fender amp!I tend to do the same thing myself it was hard to hear the BT, over all you did real good...''
--Bro.Bob
Get Them Blues
''I really really like the balls out tone of your playing and the notes. You really enhance the backing track. It just pumps up the energy.''

''What you played and how you played it, all sounded good''
--Eric Stahl

''Nice gritty blues. Always impressed by folks that can do it like that on the low F''
--Brown Ale Guy

''Nice steady grooving playing with great Princeton tone.Yours worked better than mine, which is also steady simple grooving, but first position''
--BlueInGreen

''I like the deep gritty harp sound. Good strong theme. May sound better balanced if the BT guitar treble was cut back? (I guess I'm allowed to say that!!)''
--tonedeft
Walk Alone
''Yes Eric, I liked your tone, playing was fine man : )''
--Lips Angelo
GridWalk
''You did a very good job with this track. Tone was thick and snarly and your playing had a melodic feel to it. Good Post!''
--Downhome Dave
Walk Alone
''@ Lips Angelo: when you say "great tone", does that mean the rest sucked? No really, because you didn't vote. Though a comment is helpful with or without a vote, and I appreciate that you listened at all. I do. I do. I really do.''
--Eric Martin

''wasn't trying to bust your balls but after listening I know your not a beginner and after reading some of your comments, your insightful and you give helpful positive feedback. thanks...''
--Steph Wilson
GridWalk
''I enjoyed your tone. I like some of your melodic work, other parts only loosely lay over the backing track. But oh man, a good effort. You got something there. I feel something. An energy.''
--Rick
GridWalk
''@ Steph Wilson. Thanks, Steph. I am slowly getting used to this website -- which is terrific. I really appreciate your and everyone's comments - very helpful. I am listening closely to all the new posts and will be giving back as good as I get!''

''I screwed up the posting comment. This is
miced through my amp on a pc mike. I like this BT and am trying to get ready to go on the road with Tonedeft if he will have me.''
--Eric Martin
Schimm Schamm
''Hey man, you got a big tone. I think you've been listening to BnG and are playing from your gut. Big meaty bends. Great stuff!''
--Rick
End of the Sidewalk
''You really overpowered the slide guitar with the amped harp.Sometimes after recording harp, just need to bring down the volume down and then relisten.This bt needs collaborative interplay with the guitar as a partner.''
--BlueInGreen
End of the Sidewalk
''Fat tone and nice 3rd pos. playing although some of the bend notes sound out of tune to me. Rhythm didn't always fit to what the guitar played''
--Appleman Ed
Schimm Schamm
''Nice and solid!''
--Mc7
End of the Sidewalk
''Good loF choice. I think the amped play overpowered the bt''
--Eric Stahl

--Lips Angelo
End of the Sidewalk
''Hard charging. Maybe too much in some areas but i liked the overall feel.''
--Mc7
End of the Sidewalk
''Yeah man that is some fat bluesy tone. Another diffeent apmlified version and it works pretty good to my ears. Like the way you accent the guitar in some spots. Good post.''
--BamBamBustaWhyte
End of the Sidewalk
''your sheer amped volume may be a bit much for this track, takes away from the excellent slide. some nice 3rd riffs though''
--Steph Wilson
End of the Sidewalk
''Great dirt and grit and some powerful statements. But maybe went a bit beyond mood of the track.''
--roknwil
End of the Sidewalk
''Another fine version of this track. Harp may have been just a bit high in the mix.''
--Downhome Dave
End of the Sidewalk
''Liked your 3rd position version. Low F worked ok by my me.''
--Brown Ale Guy
End of the Sidewalk
''Why not a high F? in this register I think the harp and the guitar are in each others way too much.''
--TK
End of the Sidewalk
''raw dirty third. what more? great''
--huhn
End of the Sidewalk
''Sounds cool and fits the BT. The dirt and grit bring out the blues.''
--harpletunnel

''Cool by me Eric. Mix might be a little high on the harp. Otherwise you fit in nice.''
--Brown Ale Guy
Schimm Schamm
''EM, good solid playing, you left some room for the band and did your thang!''
--Ronnie
8 bar Blues
''Nice job in general, when you started the high stuff it lost the feel a bit, but the turnaround riff at 2:26, I think, was sweet.''
--BeelzeBob
8 bar Blues
''Played well, even most of the high notes! Spoilt by clipping only. Two levels could be turned down to seek a cure. 1) In PC "volume control" Input Sensitivity of sound card input. 2) In Audacity Mic level slider. Clipping can happen at both those places.''
--tonedeft
8 bar Blues
''Some nice licks in there Eric, but I didn't care as much for the high notes. Some clipping mars the harp sound too.''
--Brett

--Eric Martin
Yank n Shank
''On this one, I just used the automatic "quick mix" effect, which mixed together the two stereo tracks of the backing track with my recorded mono track. I definitely need to work on this. I might even read the manual!''
--Eric Martin
Yank n Shank
''There is something wrong with your recording. It sounds like the b-track is doubled and out of sinc. I hear drum beats that shouldn't be there?''
--dblues
VegasCruising
''Nice smooth melodies. Many notes have a harsh recorded tone, amongst other notes that sound perfectly OK tone-wise. Is that the split octaves coming through much louder on the higher note of each pair?''
--tonedeft
Yank n Shank
''great harp play. mix level a bit lower for less clipping,harp itself sounded ful and fat.lol''
--huhn

''Clean beginning to end, not enough credit goes out for the ability to do that. In time, it rewards itself, I think. Not that I've ever done it. Nice job, a little repetitious, but nice.''
