ROG,
Terrific "big ensemble blues". The horns are nicely done (though I wished they had a bit more high end).
A good "Pop-Blues" write. Classic sounding.
LOVE your lead in this. It "speaks"! Great tone.
This is TIGHT!

Slightly larger band? It sounds huge. Cool.

This song has such a classic feel to it. And I have to agree that it does sound like a rather large band! I think that the whole arrangement is pretty spot on for what you were trying to accomplish and sounds very professional. Great job, and can't wait for the next one!
Cheers,
Ember

Rog,
This is terrific! There's nothing not to like about this one. Everything fits, and well written. Love the guitar, and the sax solos, and the vocals are just right.

A B-I-G classic sound! Great music and lyric. You really shine on this. Love these older Blues numbers. The Sudden ending took me by surprise bit I loved it!
This song really smokes! Supper job - totally loved it! Wishing you well.

Wow - what a tune! I absolutely love the groove and energy to this song. I'm definitely getting a classic 50's sort of vibe here. It's very reminiscent of BB King. It had my foot tapping in about 5 seconds. Great work, and thanks so much for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

fj Hi Floyd, Many thanks for the review - much appreciated. You may be right about the horns. I always worry about adding too much HF in case it's just my hearing which is acting as a low-pass filter! Cheers, ROG.

Great tune Rog! And a really great blues tone on that guitar! Fine work! Thanks, Torrey Hi Torrey, Pleased that you liked this one. The guitar sound is my old Jazzmaster through the Peavey Backstage 50, with the saturation up high and a line out from the headphone socket. It's all old gear, but it still has that blues sound. Many thanks for looking in. Cheers, ROG.

 You know how much we love the blues and, man, does it every hit all the buttons. The write, arrangement, your vocal and your guitar simply nailed the sound. Like Eddie alluded to it reminded us of the period when BB always performed with that great horn section. Those guys nearly stole the show on occasion. Your performances on vocals, guitar and bass are really hittin' the note. Loving that guitar tone too! Great listen and look forward to more in our playlist. Kudos! J&B
