I quite like the production on that one, but a few people have said it needs more of a hook and direction and I'd grudgingly agree :-) > I say work on the jazzier tracks more. I'm a sucker for stuff like > that. 8-) Me too, whenever I send stuff to labels though, they say give me some 'floor fillers first and we'll talk about the jazzy tracks later ;-) Thanks again for listening, Jim.
