| I had really planned to finish mixing the rest of the CD this week before returning to work. But, it just isn't going to happen. Why? Is it a lazy streak preventing this from happening? It is the hustle of the holidays? Partly, but there are other reasons: two of the songs are going to have to have parts re-recorded.
The song "Surrender" is going to need the bass retracked. What the rhythm guitar and drums are doing are great, but my bass track seems out of time. I need to simplify the verses. I hope to do this and mix it on Wednesday.
The song "I'd Do It All Again" seriously needs the lead guitar redone. What I thought sounded great when I recorded it now sounds bad. The song has kind of a John Cougar feel to it, and I am just trying to put too much lead guitar to it. I need to simplify the leads. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

Bummer, very understandable though.
Don't send it to be mastered unless you are compeltely happy with it.

| Staybrites right, don't send it until you're completely happy with it.
Who's doing the cover art for the new album?

| It's good you take the time to work on both songs till they sound like you think they have to sound.
What you have to improve to both songs is not a lot of work I think?
You are so close now, only two songs you have to improve.
I hope you have on Wednesday the time to work more on the songs. |

| Good luck when you have the time to work on "Surrender" and "
I'd Do It All Again".
Hope it goes smoothly and the songs get a killer bass track and a lead guitar track. |
