This has a nice kind of feel to it..... mellow country rock. I enjoyed hearing this tune.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Wow, Tommy. I love everything about this one! Some sweet pickin' too. You keep hitting them out of the park, they're gonna have to move the fences back!  Regards, Bob

Tom, you've always been one of my favorites, but these last few songs. It seems like you've taken it to a higher level. The production is so good, the guitar playing is awesome, tho it always has been, writing is so strong, these are great songs, this new one is very cool. Are you putting something in your coffee? Nothing illeagle I'm sure. What I'm trying to say is that I've become I big fan of your music!
Kenny yeah, Kenny and I are thinkin' along the same lines... what the heck is in the water there in Florida? All you Florida forum members consistently whup @$$ with your songs!! but seriously, I know you've invested a lot of time in your music, from playing live for most of your life, to writing songs in BIAB now. All that experience shows! Pat, I'll tell you what's in the water down here. Toxic Blue-Green Algae. We are in the midst of an environmental crisis. Thanks for the nice words. Tom Pure good old rock ! And u have an excellent voice Tom... Trygve, Thanks Man! Tom

When just the few opening bars says, here comes Tom Adams,, then you know you have carved your niche. The balanced mix you achieve between the music and your vocals is something to be admired. Good lyrics, well sung. Top notch turn out

Paddy, Thanks for taking the time to say these things. I appreciate it. Tom My gracious, this is a good one. New favorite. I have to agree, your work is getting stronger, writing, production, arranging, it's all top notch -- more commercial and radio ready.
I think loops are your new friend helping along as inspiration.
This is such a good listen. Charlie, Glad you stopped by as always. Thank You, Tom Hi Tommy,
again I like everything about this new one. Especially your voice. Your guitar work makes your songs unique. Radio ready!
Guenter Guenter, You can always be counted on for your support. Thanks, Tom

Tom,
Your sound is getting so tight! These productions are awesome! Very tight, extremely pro.
Loved the song!!
Excellent dynamics and phrasings. Thanks David. Tom Man, it's so easy to take your guitar licks for granted when you've listened to as much tommyad music as we have and the reason is they are both seamless and at the same time so supportive of the individual song they are on. They flat work.
And when you really focus on them it's easier to see what a big component they are of your productions. This song is a great example of them.
So on to the vocals. Wow...they grab you with the first line and as mentioned it is a heckuva line (of many good ones). And there's so fine harmony also.
The way you've been incorporating those loops with RT's is something I want to be able to do when I (Bud) grow up.
Yup, gotta a little Eagles thing going here like Greg mentioned. There is so much to like here but as we've said before when the total package is this strong we have difficulty in parsing out all the individual components that make it work. It's more fun to just listen again.
Kudos!
J&B
Thanks for the kudos. Tom Tom,
I can absolutely hear this one on the radio - fantastic lyrics, vocal and mix. One of your very best!
Bob Glad you liked it Bob. Tom I love the guitar hooks and the melody hooks. You make them sound unique and original. I'm getting a phasey swirl on the high fq on the vocals but it could just be my monitors.
You've got the kick and bass totally in the pocket! The transients are rocking.
Great write! Thanks Lawrence. I have some phasey type effects on the vocals. I dialed them back a bit but maybe not enough. Tom

Tom, As others have said you are producing commercially viable tracks. There must have been a moment when even you said "Wow that's good, did I do that??"  Wonderful Alyn

Tom, My sincere apologies... this one completely slipped past me. It looks like it was first posted when I was out of action for a bit. I'm really glad that Marc found it and pulled it back on top of the forum. I really like your opening line, "Guess I had to lose you to make the fire burn again". It says such a lot in so few words. As with all the songs you write and post, this is first class. It could very easily be on the radio. Your instrumental and vocal performances are stellar. I really liked the twists and turns of your solo guitar that's threaded throughout. It's a perfect match! Enjoyed it a few times  All the best, Noel
