This is a very laid back campfire version, you captured that well. I really don't have much else to add, you wrapped it up into a tight little package that feels very complete. Nice! I learned in my class the generally you don't pan the drums and bass (the rhythm section), you leave it center. This is a legacy from before stereo was a thing, but there still may be cases where a recording is played in mono, or someone is closer to one speaker than the other, so the practice still holds. This isn't meant as feedback for your song, for what we are doing this doesn't really apply. I just thought it was interesting and would pass it on to you. I love the pictures you use, it is cool to see your view of the world. I'm trying to do that a bit too. My Stone photo was at a nearby lake where they were skimming the surface of the lake to load airplanes with water to fight a bad forest fire. The smoke is why it looks hazy in the distance. I'll get my version laid down this week, just have to find some time and schedule my singer -

Wow...the week got away from me. Schools are re-opening, wife and I got the first round of vaccines, just a busy week. Sorry guys, I know we all do better when we post though out the the week and push each other. My harmonics on the first phase just don't ring out enough. @Rodman that was such a powerscore! I can't touch it! I had a hard time getting the the hammer on slide combo consistently. Sounded pretty good though. -

Yep, that was a really good pick, not one I would have thought of off the top of my head, but I'm so glad to have worked on it. Powerful song! I was looking, I think we have done 17 songs since we started this last June. Wow! You are spot on, I can't believe how far we have come. This has pushed me in a good way, having to recording and finish a song really makes me resolve issues with my playing. For the next song.....how about Soul Asylum - Runaway Train? -

@Rodman, Here it is, my version of Audioslave's Like a Stone. Man, this was a project in itself, but I wanted to do the song justice. Drums and bass are standard Band in a Box tracks. I laid down two rhythm tracks and panned one to the left and one to the right. I then recorded the single note guitar part from the first half. I broke out the Digitech Whammy pedal for the solo. Then I got stuck on vocals. Today, everyone was out of the house, so I put on headphones and just belted it out. I spent a few hours adjusting, EQing, putting on compressors and here it is. I'm able to apply some of the stuff I'm learning in my class, so I'm pretty happy with that. Whew....what a production! -

F**K yeah dude! That was awesome! Man, so much torment in your voice on the chorus, you captured the pain! I think that is your best vocal work so far, I just felt it. Nice tone on the guitar, the two parts integrated well together. Great selection on the drums too, that steady unrelenting beat propels it forward. Yeah, real nice version! -

I had been slacking off, only playing the contest songs a handful of times each week. I'm trying to put in more effort. Now I'm getting a bit of a practice regimen. I am learning the Beatles "In my Time" for the final recording and mixing project for my class. So I start with the bass part and the rhythm part of that song. Then I've been playing our Audioslave "Like a Stone" song on rhythm trying to get that solidly in my head. Then I jump into the contest songs and play them a couple times apiece depending on who is in the room and if I've burned them out on that particular song -

Maybe this is a true GoG bass part?
