Sometimes I wonder if the blues was invented for guitar players as an excuse to play extended solos. wink

Cool, awesome solos, occasionally interrupted by lyrics.

Well done.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Kick-[*****] pretty much sums it up!! Great stuff! Love the interesting "steps" in the melody-really unusual and effective. You pretty much run the gamut of styles with only one thing in common in all your tunes- THEY'RE GREAT!! Loved this! Take care. Greg

Yep, the intro is cool as is all the guitar. Yep, the write is cool. Yep, the production is killer.

AND...the vocal, man, your vocals just become richer and richer and more and more nuanced. This
is outstanding!

We'd buy an album of this stuff in a heart beat. It gave us a bit of reminder of "The Rides."

All said, this is great blues rock!

We played this for a musician friend the other day and he was knocked out by the production. And then I told him how it was done and he just looked at us in disbelief.

Thanks for sharing this.

Hi Tom. Can stand a lot of this!
Reminds me of boozy times somehow.
This line is great "Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road". Yeah. Cheers.

A good blues-rock write. And a great set of RTs to pull it off. (those drums are perfect).

Your guitar work is excellent - again, adding the extra icing...

A classic sound. terrific vocal. excellent mix - crisp!

Super cool. Looking forward to what you do in '17!

Glad you liked it! Thanks, Tom

Reminds me of that Freddy King tune "Going Down", similar riff.

Loved everything about this, enjoyed the listen!
Dave, It's great to get a thumbs up from a blues guy. Thanks, Tom

Callie thanks for the bump to the first page. It's always an honor when that happens! Tom

Back again....We've now listened to this on our monitors, earbuds, the "living room" system and in two vehicles. The mix is strong on every system and that is the sign of a great one. The drums, the piano, and your playing just cut. Already mentioned the fine vocal, etc., but wanted to include the new impressions.

Loved it! You really nailed this one. I can hear either Clapton or ZZ Top playing this one.

Super chops man!

This is a keeper for sure!
