the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th mixes sound 'better'. the guitar on the first mix sounds 'squashed' by a compressor or somesuch; to the point where it 'pulsates' or 'pumps' in these cheapo headphones. i don't know if it's compression or what; but that's what it sounds like.

the 2nd - jason jones - mix sounds like additional drums were added.

in any event, on all of the mixes, the singing and lyrics are epic.

Thanks everyone who liked my mix! My goal was for the mix to be immediate and to the point, the way I see blues as a musical form.

No doubled guitars, and no doubled vocals. Just a guy and a guitar.

As always, comments are most welcome, particularly regarding the mix characteristics, though I won't mind if you comment on the song too.

I guess people have lost interest. Bummer.

Excellent vocals!

Ardourista Ricardus Vincente mix = 5 STARS! 1+++

Brother Charles refutes your assertion.

@Ricardus: I think there's just already been a lot of focus on this project. Perhaps more interest will arise when I get the song's Web page up. As I mentioned, I'll link to the session and stem files there, hopefully more players will join the party then.

Best,

PS: It looks as if your mix is the most popular. I've received more positive comments about it than any other so far.

Yeah, it seems to have gotten a lot of nice reviews. That's cool. That last review did indeed refute my claim!

Greetings,

Two more mixes, quite different from the versions already posted.

First up, the "guicussion" mix from Thorsten Wilms :

So there ya go. Comments welcome, as always. Even more mixes on the way. Watch this space for announcements.

I figure I'll comment, because every time I comment someone pops up and gives my mix a thumbs up.

Greetings,

Waiting on two more mixes. I've already received one from Robin Gareus but I think he's planning to re-record it. Harry Van Haaren has the tracks too, he's still working on his mix.

It's still my favorite.

I'm glad you bumped this. I listened to the last two mixes and then forgot to come and comment. Interesting in both cases to hear this taken in such different directions. This is a cool project.

Thanks, D.H., I'm glad you're enjoying the show. I'm having a ball listening to what they're all doing to my song.

Stem files and the original Ardour3 session files are still available on request, if anyone wants to join in. Btw, the Ardour session can be converted to other DAW formats with the AA Translator utility.

Best regards,

My friend and quondam roomie Robin Gareus came up with this splendid version:

http://robin.linuxaudio.org/get_on_boar ... ersion.mp3

A FLAC version is also available for those of you who simply must have the highest audio quality :

http://robin.linuxaudio.org/get_on_boar ... rsion.flac

Incredibly, there's still another version in the works, from my friend Harry Van Haaren, I'll post it as soon as it arrives.

Enjoy. Comments welcome, as always.

Hi Rick,

Well, it's closing in on 3300 views, a decent number for the short time it's been up (a little more than two months). I'm still planning to work up a Web page for this whole project, with links to all versions on a single page. I'll also point to the publicly available session files and WAV stems. Just need a little free time to do it.

But if we could get the Queen to rep it I wouldn't object...
