JJ, I love the AW, it is a great recorder, but when it breaks if ever, then I will look at all the options available for a replacement. On the cuts I heard from the Akai, the clarity is consistent on the cuts and excellent.

Bill, I went throught and at least listened to bits of every cut on your collaborative cds.
Of course I liked yours as I already mentioned, here's the other cuts that I liked:
Start Again, Bulletproof Friend, Today, I'll Always Want You, Feeling Great is Optional, Packet Of Air, and sort of liked, Days Of Grace.

I thought Start Again was probably the best for my tastes, all around. Good music, vocals, style and mix.

I thought as an overall impression of both cds they were all very good just a matter of taste in genres.

Something I did notice probably worth a mention on your Akai forum, on a half dozen or so of the cuts the mix of the vocals was a bit too far back and I thought needed to be brought up front more.

The other thing I found rather interesting is that is seems like most all the players are guitar players.

Great work all around. Thanks for sharing this with me.

Andrea, thanks for giving my tune a listen. I have enjoyed many of your recordings and it is fun to be on the other side for a change. My guitar is made by Reverend, Have you ever heard of them in Italy? I have owned Gibson 335, mid-60s' Stratocaster,and many others, and I love my Reverend Spy more than any of the others. On first glance some think it is an inexpensive Danelectro, but it is a high quality instrument that plays like a dream.
As far as playing the keyboard goes, I take guitar chords, figure out the voicing,play chords with my left hand and select variations and fills with my right hand. My Korg is40 does the rest! Thanks again for your kind words.

JJ, the guitar effect is the "Delay/Swell" effect on my POD. Have not heard Hank Marvin or "The Shadows".

"The Shadows": Apache, Walk don't run, Wipout. They played with Cliff Richards as well.

Starkeeper, i don't know "Apache" but "Walk Don't Run" is The Ventures and "Wipeout" is The Sufaries. This is the music that made me want to play guitar, and it still sounds cool today!
