Top notch yet again from you two. Two of my favourites on this forum. What can I say - you've knocked it out of the park yet again. Whatever you're doing - keep doing it :-)

Hi Floyd & Tom,

Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY greetings guys.

A super rolling blues track, with excellent vocals and superb guitar work.

A BIG sound in the chorus, which was my favourite bit.

A nice clear mix, but still powerful.

Cheers,
ROG.

Floyd & Tom,
Love the tradition you honor musically, that swamp style and edgy lyrics; the "escape velocity" phrase is cool.
As others have noted: Killer Chorus!

I've got to try that topline writing method sometime.

Solid song and production. Great vocal and love that guitar. Very enjoyable all around.

I think you came close to 'escape velocity'. Drivin' Blues, yes.

Happy somewhat belated birthday, gentlemen. You've marked the occasion with a very enjoyable song, as one would expect. Great writing, playing, singing and mix. A lovely gift for us all. I was one of those, incidentally, who on first hearing Purple Haze thought Jimi was singing 'scuse me while I kiss this guy' - now a commonly cited example of a mondegreen.
Regards,
Leon

Happy birthday to both of you! Mine's coming up real soon (22nd). #74 - YIKES!!!!!!

I expect nothing but the very best from either of you - and together, well, it's just magic in a song. For me, on the music side, the baritone guitar and drums put this on a path to some really good stuff. The vocals, mix, lyric ... and all that technical stuff ya'll know how to do (I don't know) created one fabulous song. I could keep raving on and on, but I'll wrap it up and say if it gets much better than this, then new boundaries will have be established for greatness in a song.

Best to both of you. Take care and keep entertaining us.

Alan

Wow, that chorus really adds the cherry to this outstanding birthday celebration. Love that guitar --those guitars. As I was reading I figured I was going to have to do some research to find your previous birthday collabs. Wow, thanks for that, too. Happy belated birthday, Tom & Floyd.


Enjoy whatever happens!

This was great fun to listen to. Great groove, a real funky dancer. Vocals and guitars rode it hard and put it away wet. That last vocal note killed me. Nothing swampy about the mix, even at it's busiest. Nice work.

A happy belated birthday to the both of yas.

Why do we have to wait a year to hear two of the finest writers and producers on the forum collaborate?

Spin the high accolades wheel and pick one...it will apply.

We hear two great vocals (nice blues feel fj) and superbly tasteful guitar.

And the write? A clinic in How. To. Do. It. Well. Period.

We could randomly pick a line and it would be a fine one.

We hope y'all had happy birthdays 'cause you two certainly gave us a fine gift!
