I'd just like to openly acknowledge a couple of Sneapsters that helped make my new cd a success! Arcay (Carlos Arcay Fernandez) contributed blazing lead guitars and Dandelium (Erik Monsonis) did the mastering on the final mixes to take it to another level. I really want to thank those guys and put their name out there because guys are always looking for soloists and mastering, and you can't go wrong with either of these cats!
Also, many of you here played around with mixing my song "Promises and Lies" a month or so back, so if you want to hear how the final version turned out, you can go to my site www.johnnylokkeband.com and it's the first song on my player (along with a couple of other new songs).
While I'm giving out recommendations, the cd was mixed by Jay Walsh of Farview Recording in Chicago (www.farviewrecording.com) and he was spectacular to work with as well...I highly recommend him. He's done work with Ripper Owens, Jason Bittner from Shadow's Fall as well as a bunch of label work like Metal Blade and Century Media.
Anyone that wants to know more about the cd can check out some reviews:

Anyway, thanks to Andy who gave me some help with vocals and to everyone else who's brain I picked and ears I borrowed behind the scenes while I was recording. I appreciate all your help!
