Wow, this is good (and Steely too!).
The layering of the vocals is excellent.
I was almost tempted to buy the track if it weren't that I can listen to it here for free :-)

Hi
Another winner.
Only minor suggestion - the lead guitar break could be louder to match or nearly the vocals volume.
Excellent music - you have put a lot of work into this song.
Best Regards Nigel

That Finger Bass is immediately captivating. There's a real Steely Dan feel right throughout this. You must be a Donald Fagan fan  The production is beautifully complex. Totally professional.

This is much more New Orleans, with a dash of Boz Scagg's vocal styling, than Metal [*****]. The horns are very late 70s sounding. Tidy mix.

Hi Block-Head,
An excellent funky song! The vocals reminded me of KC and the Sunshine band. You sang it very good.
But you made me curious: "The Music and Melody were written by someone from PG Music... " Do these guys from PG music also make songs? And can we all ask their assistance? For free of course, I'm Dutch.
So, loved the song very much! Hans

bloc-head,
Awesome Music.
Great BAND. Excellent mix - a lot of Punch to it.
Excellent vocals.
And a solid write. Top-lining is a talent - not everyone can do that - super job here.
GREAT sound all around. (I got the Boz vibe that ray mentioned...)
Loved it.
