Howdy Cap'n ...
I read the early Elvis and Johnny Cash analogies. Can't disagree with either of those. But my first thought was Carl Perkins, circa 1958. The guitar work is perfect for the genre and era. Loved all the "fenced in" references, strongly supporting the title. Isn't it interesting how some small event can trigger such a great song?! Nice ... really nice! Take care.
Alan Thanks for dropp'n in, I'll have to go give him a re-listen. Hope your doing well. moto

Alan Thanks for dropp'n in, I'll have to go give him a re-listen. Hope your doing well. moto Very cool intro. Barb Wired. I was thinking Pamela Anderson maybe :-)... Very cool vocal and backtrack. Drums were cool and a little Hank Marvin guitar. Well done Same here! I saw the thread title and went and got the URL for this photo before I listened to the song (really good listen!) and read the thread. OH Pam! She wasn't on my mind...........until now! moto

Just make it rusty barbed wire for the total effect. Nasty stuff.... BUT.... the song is cool.
I could hear Johnny Cash singing that back in the day.
I Like it. Thanks for your comments, "Rusty Barbed Wire" ? Actually, that's where I wanted to go, somehow I took a different turn. moto

A cool little ditty - nice arrangement and those three guitars are sitting pretty. The kick drum seems to be in the wrong song though.

Great sounding guitars, especially the solo is very cool. I enjoyed the vocals and those extras, ye ha! I can imagine riding on a horse to freedom.

Well, for starters, hey, it's a 12 bar. Yea!
Rollicking fun indeed.
Guess it's just J&B but we hear a lot more blues in this than the aforementioned rockabilly references. Although admittedly the production does harken to that era.
Fine vocal and guitar performances and a cool write.
Most enjoyable!

Hi CaptainMoto,
I like the very melodic guitar solo just in its place in terms of volume and varied in terms of playing. For me the arrangement is superb. I appreciated. Well done.

Hey, Cap’n:
Boy, do I really like this one—a real foot tapper. Those guitars have a 60’s throwback vibe, then married to that Tex Mex percussion . . . smokey cool! And your vocal sits really well in the mix. Terrific write and great production work on this one. Congrats!
All my best to you,
Deej

Good ol' 50 blues. You did a fantastic job on this. I got a Carl Perkins vibe from this one. This is your best to date IMHO.

Dear Captain Moto: Hey this popped up on my Release Radar on Spotify last Friday. Very nice tune and great to listen to. Right now I'm listing to it about 4 times a day because I run this 2 hour playlist while I'm at work. So every 2 hours or so here comes that nice intro lick and it makes me relax and smile.
That is the sign of a great tune!
