Listening on a tiny computer speaker here at work, the slap stuff sounds pretty good. Bass tone (and playing) is good throughout.

But, not to mince any words... the female should be handling *all* of the lead vox.

The guitar solo on "Worship You" is not necessary, the song would be better without it.

The restrained but joyful slap bass sounds fabulous, absolutely perfect for the song. Great playing, Jeff.

I like the bass tone on "Worship You" a WHOLE LOT. Also, the bass lines throughout show a lot of thoughtfulness, in other words that you care about them.

I'm not too crazy with the mix....

Sounds really thin

On one song, or all of them?

I have given that feedback to the rest of the band, and the songs that are in her range will be retailored with her singing lead.

Thanks for the compliments on my playing and tone. That is my Cirrus 6. I just wish it was a little louder in the mix.

Thanks, Phil. As far as the solo goes, I was outvoted 3-1. Everybody wanted it except me.

Thanks a lot! That tone is my Cirrus 6, just wish it was a little more audible. I feel like I put a lot of thought in my playing, and hope that what I am doing serves the song, and not my ego.
