Members stickboymusic Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 Personally id go with the new version Having said that - the old version IS fine and I reckon you could nail them lower notes with another pass...the opening line is particularly noticeable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LCK Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 OK... first real pass. I was thwarted by my daughter being home... so I couldn't record piano. Opted for mandolin instead... I like the idea of the mandolin doing a solo... but I can't hack it... so does anyone play mandolin? http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12967593 Very nice. Fabulous, actually in a very non-assuming way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nat whilk II Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 Hi - a very quick pass one step higher (key of E) and 3 BPM faster. Would appreciate quick feedback as I have the morning free and then I'm away all weekend. I'm somewhat motivated right now, so would be good to know if it is worth it to re-do everything from scratch or if the current key and tempo is ok. http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12969000 I like this tempo - this song has one eye on sorrow and one eye on musical joy/comfort. The slightly faster tempo hits that balance point just right to me. And you sing low just fine, no question. But the vocal sounds more unified a bit higher up. very good work! nat whilk ii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Foose31 Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 Love it.... you have a Rodney Crowell sound going on there. Get Emmylou Harris to sing alongside you and you have yourself a hit. One suggestion I have with your corn shucking line. I can get through the eveningWith an eye towards the mornPreparing tomorrow's setlistWhile shucking my corn----- While shucking and humming to the ears of corn/ Shucking and humming to an ear of corn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tbry Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 Because you use Kitchen Porter and its a slow country style song, Porter Wagoner came to mind...maybe you could tie in a Kitchen Porter and Porter Wagoner...or not.....I like the faster version better and your vocal low and high is right on.

Members oldgitplayer Posted November 14, 2014 Members Share Posted November 14, 2014 Yep - this new version is the way to go IMO……... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Lee Knight Posted November 15, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 15, 2014 I really love this. In the lower D you sound a bit like Don Everly. In E you sound like you. I like the oddity of the lower myself... Not odd/weird but different for you. Either way it is a true inspiration. It sounds like it flowed out of you like the good ones do. Very sincere sounding and feeling without a trace of hokem. Really great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members oldgitplayer Posted November 16, 2014 Members Share Posted November 16, 2014 Can we have a version in D but in the faster tempo? .png.197c47f720636f02390cc2b0a33804da.png' alt='smiley-veryhappy'> I too like the vocal quality of the key of D, but prefer the faster tempo.
