David,
You have excelled yourself again!
Love the Kashmir on speed progression and great vocals.
Mr Dylan I'm sure would love it too.
Excellent.

I was right about to say I could hear Bonham hammering out that drum track... Great track David! Love the vocal delivery (even though you lured me in with false promises of a lullaby!). As always, your imagery and storytelling takes this from great to greater.

David,
Ouch! I`m going to play this as a warm-up to the next Debate.
Seriously though, there really should be more hard hitting songs like this ... you have beaten Bob & Neil to it this time.
The arrangement is great - love the layers of doom & of course that "inferno" vocal.
Scary Good.
Robert

Tell him what he won Johnny!  Thanks for "getting it" Robert. But I guess the rule applies to more than one, huh? It was meant to be scary but I hope you don't have nightmares! Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks Will. You nailed it. I was in fact using my "Bonham" drum kit on that one. But ya know, when you are writing rock and roll, there really is only one question you should ask yourself, eh? "What would Zeppelin do?"

Hi David, you nailed a cool vibe here melding Dylan and Zep together. I smiled quite a bit in this one. Good job! Thanks, Torrey.

David,
This one is interesting! Very high-pitched vocals which I always like.
Man you sure are more prolific than we are, how is that possible?
Here in Holland we are also watching the candidate debates, which are definitely interesting to look at.
Keep up the good work, but I probably won't have to tell you ;-)
Rob

Led Dylan! Awesome! Excellent write! No doubt you will be getting a cease-and-desist-we-are-suing-you letter very soon. (and maybe from Zep, too ). HA! A STUNNING production! Your best ever. (they just keep getting better and better). STUNNING! COOL vocal! Excellent mix. Excellent drum opening - snare flam!!! Too many people neglect that... You listed "electric drums" - did you play that? The drums sound great throughout. A big WOW on this one... fj

Thanks Floyd! Yeah, I did "play" my little electronic drum kit on the computer with my fingers. It was like Gulliver's travels, but it is amazing what technology can do these days. I was two inches tall and I sat behind a Bonham kit on my machine. Tons of fun.
