Some cool licks in your solo and the walkout was nice.
I like the way the organ interweaves.

It's too early for my "neighbourhood test" (4.00am!) I will try it later.

That monkey on the back is good inspiration for songs and I had a quick flash of the evil monkey who lives in Chris' closet in Family Guy for that!

Good work as usual

Alyn, I tried to put a few different sounding licks in there. Thanks for noticing. Tom

Yup, we like it a LOT!!!

Nearly forgot to mention the ace arrangement
and mix. Getting so spoiled we've just come
to take it for granted.

J&B, Thanks. That one odd chord made it sound different from the usual shuffle progression. Glad you liked it! Tom

This one is over the top.

You're a player, Tommy, there is no doubt. And you most definitely have a flair for this genre and for writing some hard-hitting lyrics.

Really love that smoldering, tasteful guitar during the chorus and verses.

Sweet mix, as usual:)

This is a classic tune man. Great lyrics. Very ZZ Top. Intense lyrics. Great hook. Excellent playing and instrumentation, and mixing.

The only part that distracted me was something in the backing vocals early on. Other than that I thought I was listening to the radio.

David, Thanks for coming by and giving it a spin. I'm not sure what it was that distracted you since there were no backing vocals. Thanks again for all the nice comments. Tom
