a while ago, actually
I bought a mandolin from one of the fine folks here, a while ago, and am almost capable of playing it a bit now, so here’s a song - “Like A Home Movie” - mixes are getting better…

Not enough distortion… (JOKE!!) 
Nice Tom… I’m sneaking outta here early. I’ll give it another listen on the “big box” when I get home. If I stay awake long enough…
D
PS Hmm… a Mando through a Mesa-Boogie Triple Rec with the gain dimed… Hmmm…
Really a nice change of pace for you Tom - refreshing to me. 
And, of course, you have learned well!
Very nice Tom! If it’s down loadable I’ll burn it into my next collected batch. Better yet put that one in your soundclick store! I would pay for it!
It’s all the way good,
Levi

Just did... It sounds great Tom. Well done! Good song. Good performance. Good mix. Print it and ship it!
Not a single "jangly guitar" is sight!
D
PS Of course a mando is kinda jangly...
But there is a jangly guitar in there! Just listen! It just sounds so good that you didn’t notice it!

jangly? I don't understand that meaning. I dont hear anyting loose or to twangie or at all harsh. Did you mean knarly? lol just kiddin.
Hey the guitar sounds fine, really! Hearing a Dicky Betts influance on the guitar That's always a good thing.
Ok now that I heard the bottom end, I still think it's very good. The mix is very flat IMO but the playing is fine. I would just brighten up the snair some and maybe compress the kick drum for a little thump.
This does sound good. You know they can always sound better. But at what point do you say ok? We can all pick it apart for you if you want to make it perfect. But it's very good now.
This one can be in your store, you can always update it anytime.

Tom this is definitely one of your best in my ears…
Thanks guys. the mix is veryflat. I used just dry sounds on everything, except for a touch of verb on the vox and snare. For some reason I kind of liked that sound - given that there are 2 acoustic guitars and 2 mando tracks on it - lots of natural woody goodness.

It sounds good Tom. I have found that sometimes trying to "over do" a mix just ruins it. "Less is more." Specially acoustic instruments it seems. Woody goodness. Yep.

Goody woodness!
That reminds me… where did I put those Viagra…
D
argh…i still can’t find your soundclick page, i wanna hear it too 
Tom’s stuff is still AWOL on Soundclick Ange. Don’t know what is wrong… Maybe it will be back soon.

I just hope that he isn’t in trouble!
Nope, not in trouble. Maybe it was a critic with hacker skills.
Anyway, I’ll get it back up sooner or later.
Now go make some music.
