great! I like it as a special and do you know why?

This reminded me my number one band of all time: Weather Report.
...tho the lead line is a guitar and please, it sounds just good over here and I can not feel entitled to make any deeper analysis.

keep on, please!

So you like Weather Report?

We are in the same boat so!

This has been my main group alwyas... I'm glad you like them as I do. Absolutely, this are my roots indeed. Cheers.

I had a few Weather Report albums - sadly I can't remember their particular flavour, Jazz Fusion-ish I think - but I do remember enjoying the music

I dont know "Wather Report" at all so i cant compare your song with it(maybe better for my
hearing).I like the song ,its funky and jazzy
i also like your guitars but i dont like the
flanger thing on the drums; maybe they sounds
"better" when you let them dry and give them some more presence.
Musically its a nice song for sure.

I woun't bother with this song, it was just a try, I wanted to hear the BAM used in a sharper way with guitars, but I'm not going to change it.

It's a chorus in the drums. I either like this drums effect...

just experimenting something.

I realised that I have wrongly applied depth, if you pay attention, the melody has not enogh depth agains the middle part, when the solo comes. It should be equalized in a way both parts match in depth, because when you come back to the melody, the song gest a bit deinfrated.

I have a bunch of Weather Report LPs & I'm a big fusion fan. WP was the first artist I thought of when I heard your tune. Your BAM! posts have been "Supa Groovy" Nestor! These ARE something special.

you're really missing from of the best kind of electric music/band of the 20th century.

try an ear on "heavy weather", "mysterious traveller", "night passage","live and unreleased", for instance, and if you can't recognize these as masterpieces made by superb musicians then you must be getting into serious hearing trouble.
