Sal, I have uploaded here separate wave file for the percussion, keyboard & slide guitar that was used in my mix to you last week plus a midi file containing all the 3 tracks. So you can play around with them whatever you like. Cheers.
Sal, your new mix gives another feel to the song. I noticed you moved the guitar part & additional percussions to other positions which also served the purpose. The added keyboard riff was not too visible though. Regardless, it's great fun as long as you're comfortable with the outcome. Cheers.
In fact, it's just an option with some choices : instead of layers, I've taken out some sections of drums(yours or mine) to let room, slide parts that sounds very country or that contain many notes(as some of them don't match the tune , most of keyboard for the same reason( doesn't match with the chord chart, for instance a major chord where a minor one is needed) . Of course this is not so obvious in a "layer mix" because the overall wall of sound doesn't allow our ears to analyse harmony...I suppose.
Of course, feel free to post your version here, or an alternate one, that will be interesting.
Cheers.
