I don't think there has ever been "good old days" - just simpler life with more hardships, a small group had to work very hard as one, no freeloaders (but I guess hostality between groups was as bad as today). But I agree with the title, mortality and feeling alive were strongly present (and we have lost that "feel" in this virtual world). And you have written a strong blue song about that subject, I can feel what it means to be "alive" through your music. Your singing is very emotional, I enjoyed how you make every word count.

The arrangement and mix are top quality, Marty the bassist was alive when playing this and hopefully still is. Dave's guitar is really at home in the song.
