Wow, Kevin and Claire, this is really top notch. Very clean playing on the guitar and lovely work on the vocals.

Really brought a smile to my face you two !

Kevin and Claire, you make a great duo. Lovely. Very impressive smooth guitar playing there. Great control with the hammer-on pull-off stuff as well as those perfect harmonics in the end. Nice collection of guitars, will you list them for me please? Claire, lovely (and sweet) as usual! Nice vocal effect Tom, what did you do? Also, nice background effect, how did you do that?

No vocal effect Daryl, Claire sang it both low and high, well spotted! The background was just one of those things you do, tweak the colours, blur it a bit, stop tweaking it when you get something that you like, that kind of thing. I use Sony Vegas, it's kinda limiting to be honest, but you can get some decent results sometimes with perseverence. The opening animation with graphics I made in After Effects. Kevs guitar part that is both colour and black and white, I again did in After Effects, two layers one black and white, one colour, added a mask to allow colour through on selected bits, namely the guitar and Kevs tie.

That's pretty much it.

That's too funny. I was SO focused on Kevin's hands (and Claire's voice) I didn't even notice the B&W effect in Kevin's video! Funny, Kevin's picking arm (and hand) is in color and his fingering arm (and hand) is in B&W. Pretty cool effect.

Claire, Kevin and Tom,

This is beautiful. It was my favorite from Croce. To see it play live and so well is amazing. Claire you have to explore more that potential you have. Kevin your playing is always good, but this seem to reach a new peak. Tom, good mixing , I did not noticed the effect either, it is pretty cool.

Kevin , glad to see the banner. Impressive guitar collection you have. Do you play the electric sometimes?

I have to agree with you Mark, Kevins playing is on a new level. I also agree, Claire should do more with her singing potential.
