regarding Sunny day ,they were both fine with me, the vox did sound brighter on the second which after gettin used to it was also ok ,i was listening on ear goggles though, so i cant give a full review , i think what is very noticeable to you Larry isnt necessarily as noticeable by someone listening for the first time ,a lot of it is just detail ,i like the tune though and yes i managed to listen through it twice ,so it can`t be that bad ,you even sound a bit like Joe Walsh vocally. like the song ,is the brass real.
