NOT TURNING BACK Sorry for my absence lately! I thought I had better drop back in for a song or two! I'm also sorry I've missed some songs by you all, but I'll try to catch up! This instrumental tune is an uptempo Jazzy type of thing that I hope you all enjoy!

Glad you're back Torrey.
Very cool Instrumental piece... great melodic guitar lead, and I love the background vox too.
This is an outstanding arrangement, but I do miss your always spectacular singing voice & style...
Great to hear from you again.

Reminds me of the glory days of Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer. Ah, when Jeff was trying to sound like a keyboard & Jan a guitar. I saw them in Sydney on the tour than produced "Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live" I think. Yes Torrey, very Jeff except you use recognizable Torrey Bliss melodies which ups the game. ACE!
Cheers

Welcome back Torrey, you've been missed. Another good tune. You have a style all your own and I like it. I sure like the tone and effects you use on your guitar. Great playing and good melody. I like how you blended all your musical thoughts on this one, great mix.

Wow, excellent guitar playing Torrey! A very bright yet full guitar sound you've got there.
You surely are "walking" over that guitar neck with great ease :-).

Nicely done, Torrey!
Love that little melodic hook you came up with, definitely stays with you after the song is done.
Excellent composition, arrangement, and playing.
Loved it!

Quite different from what I was used to from you, Torrey!
Only in the ooh's I recognized it was you.
And what a guitar solo you played. Impressing!

Wow, Torrey, top-notch all the way. I really like your singing, and, man, you can really sing on that guitar, too. LOVE this style of song, and you present it so well. Truly amazing artistry. Of course, I left your Reverbnation page up while typing and have been Inside and on my way to Upside Down. Yep, you are a terrific singer.

Thanks for the cool funk instrumental, pleasure to listen to the leading groove which then turns to a melodic pop tune and later comes back to the nice fusion bridge. Enjoyed the chord progression, the arrangement and your stylistic guitar playing.

Hey Torrey ...
Beyond cool! You got some ice water to dip those fingers in? I first listened this last night, I think it was. But wasn't feeling well and didn't comment. But I'm very pleased I came back to it to let you know my thoughts. Sweet!!!
