I can definitely appreciated some resonator action and your singing works. The effects at some points throughout the song seem to distract more than to draw attention to the music. But I'm sure you'll pull it all together or that some of these other tracks are nicely put together. I will admit that so far, it's a rather new take on Amazing Grace and that can always be appreciated. Your actual playing sticks into the blues genre well enough, especially when you run through the different rhythm patters in "Online Intervention." Good work sir, keep it up. If making this music makes you happy, then great stuff.

I love the idea of a wretched Amazing Grace. Nice burnt-out vibe on this - I like it.

Thanks jodanchudan

I started just seeing if I could do the resonator part,I learned a version on harp awhile back,and was just curiuos if I could do a By ear version on resonator,well It was just a scatch pad recording,I was and still thinking about doing some more takes,To get it tighter,But as i started messing around ,I got to thinking it does have a burned out Wretched vibe to it,so I added a few more things just exsperimenting really,

I think though i would like to work with it some more,I like how it sounds played on a resonator,And when i learn it better ,I might do a simpler version maybe just resonator and maybe harp .

Its one of those songs that can be done a whole lot of different ways and has allways had a soulful blusey feel.to it ive allways thought at least,
