The soundman I once worked for sent me a clip of the band he's currently working for. I like it, good retro sound.

 
The sound is good but not crazy about drums. Snare doesn't have much depth to it and sounds very shallow is too much of a "ping" and part of it not proper tuning. There could be couple of spots on the share that are tuned too high and that is part of it. Bass drum is not cutting thru the mix so again it's either who recorded or mixed it made it this way. I used to be a pro drummer and not a sound guy so that's all I noticed. Sorry if I sound a little snoby just wanted to give you this pointers. Over all that's a pretty good song and decent recording.

Good feedback, he started working with them late last year. He's been at it for a long time, he knows what he's doing. He was Sebastian Bach's sound man, but I'm more impressed by one of his earlier bands.

I say Yay to the OP.Why not? one of their tracks has the Black Dog guitar solo note for note, but nothing wrong with getting the Led out once in a while. On Wild T. It is a crime he isn't a star.

Tony Springer!
Haven't hear him in years.
 
I briefly worked for Tony Springer when he had his Hendrix cover band Fire. At the time he was touring with the rhythm section of Zon - remember them? I'll never forget the Newmarket show, the road crew had to become bodyguards for him. He received deaths because he had a white wife. When introducing the band he made this comment which I've never forgotten: "Kim Hunt on drums, Jim Sampson bass and me I'm The Man from Glad". He was briefly Bowie's guitarist in the last decade.

I knew Frank Grosso as well, he passed away from complications from ALS on 5th of May. He missed Lou Gerhig's lifespan by two months. It was heartbreaking! He ran The Meta Center as his day job, an organization that helps mentally handicapped children become part of society. And did his best Steven Tyler impersonation on weekends. He will be genuinely missed!
