Had em in the past, non now
So I have a full production recording studio and during the pandemic produced about 40 of my all time favorite covers , always in Orig bands , Its been A lifetime since trying to do other people's music ... I played all bass, guitars and leads, programmed all keys and drums and did all vocals MYSELF. PLEASE if you bother to follow the links and listen ,,,,, give me comments..... Good bad or indifferent, There are also songs from some Bands I've been in and were also produced by me. solo Originals as well .

So. Basically go to either Reverbnation.com/groovetank or SoundCloud.com/groovetank and both have exhaustive catalogs ....SOundcloud having the most . I'm on all major platforms as well under "J.M.Sutherland" too.

Only listened to a few tracks. Pretty good stuff. Some suggestions:
1. EQ the highs down, and add more mids.
2. Double the guitars and vocals, and EQ each track differently. That will fill out the sound, which I think is important for this type of music.
3. The mixes overall are a bit too loud. Some peaking is OK, but not to the point the acoustic guitars distort.

Keep it up!

depending on what you listened to, there re some very old recordings mixed in from studio tech long ago, but any of the covers and a few originals (Missing you again) are current studio, the older stuff is sorta as you describe. I do actually double (true doubling, not time shifted copies) all vocs and most guitars get doubled. The covers I really worked on my production values. Thanks for taking the time to listen, I hope the lifetime of dedication shows thru! Cause I'm the guy trying to figure out how to take my bass into the light at that moment..... ROCK ON AND FUNK OFF!
