Great rock song - superb production - excellent guitar work - nice vocal (good use of vocoder at the end). Excellent work all round.

Cool intro reminded me of In the Midnight Hour by Wilson Pickett. Has the 60's vibe to it. Excellent vocal and backtrack. Guitar was super Hi Scott. Many thanks for the review. Happy to be associated with Midnight Hour - what a classic track that is. Cheers, ROG.

Hello ROG, Thank you for sharing this with us. Really dig the progression and the vocals, the elements are nicely balanced. Well done!
Hi Joe. Thanks for the listen and review. Always good to see so many PG staff on here these days. Cheers, ROG.

I love the imagery of Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf in this! Very nice! Love how you worked it in. Hi Ember. Many thanks for looking in on this one. Pleased you liked the up-dated fairy tale. Cheers, ROG.

ROG...
What a great listen!
Since everyone is playing the "sounds like game" on this one... I'd have to say Warren Zevon. Dripping Zevon, in fact... both the write and the production (and vocal).
Dig that snare. Awesome solos! (Dig the delays).
Nice ooohs! Cool beatlesque bridge...
The effect on the outro lyric is very cool!
A lot of "cool" went into this (and a lot of work, I imagine). Excellent mix - nice loud.

Hi Floyd. To do the last bit first - glad you turned it up! It needs VOLUME. Hey, Warren Zevon - brilliant. My favourite of his has to be "Lawyers, Guns and Money", though I like all his rockier stuff. Thrilled that you made that link. Glad you liked the "Phil Collins" snare - straight out of the 80s! The outro is my old Syntovox again. I know it's going to pack up one day, so I feel the need to keep using it whilst I can. "Cool" is very acceptable - many thanks for that and the kind review. Cheers, ROG.

What a great sound!!! Really rocks! How did you get that big drum sound? Love the change from the rockin' guitar to the mellow, melodic part. One of your best, and that's saying something Rog!! Wonderful!! Take care. Greg Hi Greg. Always pleased to get your opinion and so pleased you liked this track. The MIDI drums are all samples which we've made in house and we've built up the collection over the years - some actually started out as 8 bit samples from the 1980s! Each drum is recorded separately using several mics and the result is then processed and heavily compressed. We make up a kit to suit each song and play the samples using the "DRUM SOURCE" sample player. The whole drum track is then compressed again using upward limiting, to take out any peaks where the samples combine. (Well you did ask!) Nice of you to mention the step-change at the end of the solo. The progression changes key and goes from an "E" chord to a "Cmaj7" with the guitar sustaining the "B" note through the transition. Glad you thought it worked. So, many thanks for the listen and the kind words. Cheers, ROG.

Peter Many thanks, Peter. Much appreciate the positive review and comments about the guitar work. Glad you liked the old Syntovox vocoder. It's a bit tricky to use, but great when it works! Cheers, ROG.

ROG,
I apologise for missing this one. I don't seem to have enough time to spend in this forum these days and the songs slip by pretty quickly.
As with everything you deliver, you emblazon it with your dazzling musical signature and seal it with a first class production. When I listen to your works, I'm always left wondering "How did he do that?"... your instrumental skills, your arrangement skills and your ability to produce are incredibly impressive.
Another excellent musical ride.
All the best, Noel

What a powerful track! I love how much energy its got - it reminds me a classic rock tune from the late 70's or early 80's. Very catchy, and very intense! Great job, ROG and thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Great job, ROG and thanks for sharing HI Deryk. Many thanks for looking in and the positive review. I love the 70s/80s Rock and so the comparison is more than welcome. Cheers, ROG.

Hello ROG,
Looks like we missed this one. So glad we got to it.
It's hard to come up with anything new to say after all the accolades this one has already received. What really caught our ear was the calm of the bridge in contrast to the drive and edgy presentation of the rest of the songl. That was a total surprise and sounded so good!
It's hard to believe one can find so many "contributors" on a small, innocent looking USB HD! There are many fabulous tools available to craftsmen of all trades. However, without the skill and innovation of the craftsman, the tools have few special qualities in their application. You are a master craftsman, my friend!
The manner in which you seamlessly blend so many contrasting yet reciprocally ingratiating components defines the creativity of your work and the execution of the finest details necessary for such an accomplishment.
In addition to all that, we really enjoyed this work of musical art!

Hi Alan & Di.
Many thanks for all the nice comments, my friend.
Pleased you liked the step-change into the bridge. Trying to get away with introducing a maj7 chord into a rock song is a bit risky, so I'm happy to get positive feedback.
Really glad you enjoyed the track.
Cheers, ROG.

Rog, you have produced a killer tune here! You have layered the guitars in an excellent fashion. But the part I enjoyed the most is the section starting at 1:40. It is here where you have taken the song to another level above most of what is heard on the forum. The amount of work involved on this is very much noticed and appreciated by me! Take care, Torrey.
