Everybody's contributions sounding good.
Looks like the tricky thing is trying to keep the tracks separate so that some parts can be faded down a bit in spots to leave a bit more room for someone else to come to the front for a few bars. Is it possible to record each track separately - percussion, rhythm, lead etc. or is that too awkward in this situation? Sorry I can't offer more constructive suggestions, but I'm a real noob at mixing and recording.
Learning lots here.

I won't have time to contribute much to this one - except applause from the grandstand - but I'm hoping that by early Feb I'll have my gear set up and working, and have a bit more time to try and join in some of these collaborations.
