old school
There sure are a lot of good posts being made in the Member's Recordings forum lately. Great to see so much action!
This is a cover of an old blues tune called 'The Sun Is Shining' (not sure why he called it 'blues jam in G').
I love doing these old bluesy songs. There are so many of them and just begging to be covered.

Yeah, I sent him the rhythm track and the slide track separately and he mixed them with his parts. On the copy that I mixed, it's pretty much in time. My one bar turnarounds were a little ragged, though. I really need to work on my turnarounds.

Nice sounding song, slide was good and I really liked the harmonica - had a sort of 'course' sound to it. It is a pity about the timing, the song could have been even better, very enjoyable all the same.
When all else fails, read the instructions.

Thanks, Jomi. And I'll pass your comment on Slim's harp playing to him, I'm sure he will appreciate it.
I contacted Slim about the timing issue and he replaced his mix with the one I have. It sounds a little better now.  My mix is in mono, where his mix was stereo. I'd rather have it be mono and in time than stereo and out of time, though, and IMO old bluesy tunes like this should be in mono, anyway.
In case some of you are wondering about the words being a lot different than the Elmore James tune by the same title, this one is a Jimmy Reed tune. Forgot to mention that in my first post.
Thanks much for the comments.
