We are really getting there now!!
I have rewritten and rerecorded the more confusing bits of dialog, rerecorded all of Jimbob’s middle dialog (where his voice had suddenly changed), and fully mixed the whole song.
Jimbob still has some voice-matching trouble, but it is not as bad as before.
Symbolic Dog Blues, rev 2
What’s left?
Keep on improving the Jimbob voice match, and add some drum fills.

Bernie,
Wow, it really comes alive with the complete mixing. And it’s very funny, too.
Bravo.

Thanks, Dad!
The trickiest part to mix was the middle section where Jimbob gets interrupted by the heavy electric guitar. To fix up this part, I rewrote his lines so they would fit in the quiet spots; then I put the guitar in the center of the stereo field, while Jimbob remains toward the right; but whenever the guitar competes with him, I move it to the right in addition to turning up its volume. All this has made the interrupting effect work much better.
And, by the way, where do you suppose I got my definition of “funny”?
One day you can explain this to me.
Ha, I’m not so sure about that … did you say *explain* ? I hope you heard rev. 3. It is better than this one.
