Nice tune Robert!! This has a great groove. I always love the feel you capture and the poetic and somewhat abstract lyrics. Love the Wah-wah sound-I'll have to check that RT. Really good stuff!! Take care. Greg

Real good mix Robert. I like the instruments that you put together and I think that they blended well. The wah-wah took me back to the early sixties when I was in a band and it was being used a lot back then. Enjoyed listening.

Thanks Greg - much appreciated.
For the wah sound, I'm actually running an RT through a wah simulator in GarageBand.

That wahwah is sweet! I like this song and the way you arranged it. Great vibe. I'm so happy to hear you on here again. Hope you get no ill effects from the weather there but I have to admit I'm really glad you got couped up inside so we got a cool new Bob song to enjoy!

GREAT SOUND Bob!
Love that wha wha guitar. Your vox and mix is super! I can hear Tom Petty singing lead on this with the Traveling Wilburys backing him up.
This is super!

So glad to see you back around, Bob. I enjoy your songs. This is no exception.
A super listen. One of your best "bands", I think - a great sound and a solid mix. The wah was a nice touch.
You should definitely list the RTs you use when you post. I think there would be a lot of people out there that would hear your songs and say "Man! I've got to get that program!" - I think your sound could help sell BIAB to a lot of singer/songwriters out there...
