    Fantastic work, everyone!! I must say, this collab turned out much better than I thought it would. I'm very pleased with every part. Thanks to you all. If everyone agrees with this final mix, I'm ready to call this one completed. I'd love to cover something else with you guys.

    Never heard anyone do this cover yet - Such a great tune and part of the Sountrack from one of my all time fave movies (planes trains and automobiles) - you guys heard this song - https://youtu.be/QF2etbteMUI

    @tudan : Hmm, that's funny. PT&A is also one of my favorite movies, but I don't remember ever hearing that song before. Sounds like a very typical 80's heavy rock tune. Vocals sound easy enough to learn. I like the song, but it would take some work learning it. You've learned LITN for my collab, so I suppose I owe you one, Ross. I'd be in. Anyone else?

    @tudan : Dig the hydraulics! Yeah the song is new to me, but I think I can sing it with some practice.

    Please see if this bass track sounds ok, I've got quite a bit of different setup I am working with to try

    Damn 1983Electric, that was phenomenal. I honestly can't find a single flaw in your bass track. I am grateful, Sir. Thank you VERY VERY MUCH!!! Outstanding. I have remixed all the levels to bring out more bass and vocals. I'm pretty happy with this mix. Let me know if you would like any tweaking of levels or anything.

    Hey Ross tudan - I'm not gonna ask for a complete redo of your track, but there are 3 critical things (as a drummer knowing this song well, I think they're critical to the song) that you missed in your performance here, that I think would improve the drum track by filling them in. At 1:09, there's a cymbal crash WITH the snare beat there, and it's very up front and obvious on the BT. Same at 2:08, the cymbal crash with the snare beat. Those are both important accents that give this song character. And the very first snare beat when double time begins at 4:02, if you could fill that in, it wouldn't sound like you made a mistake there. It would actually sound even better with a simultaneous cymbal crash on that first double time snare beat. I think if you could fill in those three little details, it would make your whole drum track sound more complete and mistake free. What do ya say?

    Hi CC , really not interested in redoing a song in which the drums sounds tight to my ears, No worries If you want to invite someone else to track drums

    @tudan : Not to get in between drummers, I hearths “missing” accents, but I LOVE Ross’s drumming here, I’d vote for this cool band to not be disbanded… not even 2 cents from me ;)

    @tudan : Ha! Relax, guys. You're both right. I should be grateful for Ross's learning the song and covering it in his own way. You're a creative drummer, Man, and I appreciate that. I hope you'll forgive my persistent copycat ways. It's what I know. I'm not creative when it comes to covering songs, like many folks here at BH. I prefer to reproduce or "mimic" what I hear. I respect your way of covering songs. I only wish I had that kind of creativity. Peace, and thanks again for accepting my invitation. I appreciate the time you put into this. All you guys.

    @CopyCat : Anytime bro - Honest everything is cool. I love working with you guys - You have serious talent Felipe - Great Keys Guitars and vocals, a real multi instrumentalist. and CC - Man your voice is unique - I dont know anyone else who sounds as good as you man. How you never made it big with a voice like that is a mystery - and your a tight ass drummer and I recently did drums for Stephen (1983Electric) on their Master of puppets, Damn hard bassline to play and he nailed that one too Humbled to be playing with such good quality players here.

    @FelKeys : As long as you're satisfied with your LG solo (you called it a temp dirty solo draft before), I'll go ahead and mark this collab as completed. Let me know what you think.

    You guys are all great, I just try to repeat what I hear as accurately as I can, no matter if the collab is a throwaway or pro

    The average listener isn't going to know the difference anyway as evidence by all the youtube comments on bad covers that people are amazed by
