Luther, this is great stuff. I love the fact that you took a completely obscure Brian song and added your own personality to it. The mix is very good. If you get a chance, check out 'shortenin' bread' , and tell me what you think.
  In closing, the great thing about making this kind of music...no pressure, and we really enjoy the songs we are attempting. You captured a hell of a feel with 'lines'...and for some reason, I still can't hear 'something better' or 'sleeping' ...maybe you can upload them on the same ' you send' program?

"Lines"--nice piano and vocal. great chords, huh? I like the way the bass sneaks in. The drums sound great, How are you miking those? How many mics are you using?
   "Something Better" is playing right now. Bass is awesome. Love that bass line. pretty chords. Great change of 'feel' in the middle of the song..
  "Sleeping is fun" is so fun 60's...Love this sound. Drums again sound crisp and cool, and a stellar arrangement. This could be my favorite of the 3...And a nice recording on all 3. Paying close attention to the mix and arrangement. Makes it interesting and fun to listen to...
