"Footsteps" [90/92 Mix] - mix/mash of 1990 demo and Rockline

"Footsteps" [90/92 Mix]

Sources:
"Jeremy" single (Ed & Stone)
PJ20 Soundtrack (demo)
Lost Dogs (harmonica)

The first time I heard the instrumental "Times of Trouble" demo, I wondered if it might be possible to mix in Ed's vocal from the Rockline performance. I finally decided to try it a month ago.

Since neither is beat-matched, and both have different grooves - I ended up mostly having to synchronize Stone's guitar(s), sometimes measure by measure, and hoping for the best.

Despite the "90/92" name, I did fly in the harmonica from the Lost Dogs version, only because I got used to hearing it. It seemed to mesh pretty well with those instrumental sections.

There is some occasional shittiness in the Rockline performance (caused by the tempo-shift) that I can't fix, but I tried to mask it as much as possible.

I consider this a "beta" version - let me know if you hear anything totally out of line.

EDIT - Version minus the harmonica:

I enjoyed this!

You made them fit together better than I would have expected could be done.

That is pretty awesome! Nice work. The harmonica works better with the full band than with just the acoustic guitar. Nice touch adding it in.

Thanks, guys! I wasn't sure if this was just something in my head or if it might appeal anyone else.

One thing I really liked about this - if only because I haven't listened to the instrumental all that much - is the piano work, especially towards the end. (The liner notes only mention Stone, Jeff, Matt, and Mike - I'm wondering if the piano might be an uncredited Rick Parashar.)

Great job with this Honda!

Any chance you're willing to share lossless versions of your creations?

Thank you!

Yes! I was stalling to see if anyone had suggestions for revisions, but if it's seemingly "locked" - I'll try and throw them somewhere.

Great project UglyRedHonda
Thanks for the lossless download

I'm a fan of the harmonica but cool to have both versions.
