Really sounds like an old favourite.

Sounding good, ROG! Nice intro and great feel.
Love the background oohs and aahs, and tasty lead work throughout.
Did you use BIAB for the drums or something else?
Hi Dave. The drums on this one are samples which we've made-up ourselves over the years. We play them back via midi from the Drum Source sample player. Thanks for the positive review. Cheers, ROG.

Seems like folks are hearing all kinds of vibes here so we’ll throw in ours:
Traveling Wilburys with a country edge!
Guitars, vocals (BGV and lead), banjo/sax notion and the mix are all hittin’ the note.
Cool collab!!
J&B
Hi there J&B. "Traveling Wilburys with a country edge"? That'll do fine. Many thanks, ROG.

Wow, you guys nailed this! It's wonderfully catchy, and that groove is infectious. I love the harmonies in the background throughout the whole tune. It has a ton of character and life to it, and I found it extremely pleasant to listen to.
Great work, and thanks so much for sharing! Hi Deryk. Many thanks for the listen and review. Really pleased that you enjoyed it. Cheers, ROG.

Cool song. I don't think i would call it country rock though. The first think that comes to mind is the band Chicago but I'm not really sure what style that is either lol

Yeah, we weren't any too sure either. Chicago is quite acceptable! The main thing is that you thought it was cool. Many thanks for that. Cheers, ROG.

Yeah... I have to agree, more pop than anything. Not really close to country or even country rock despite the banjo. In fact, I'd drop the banjo and go with the pop/rock thing.
That sax makes it rock.... and I thought I could hear the banjo banging away the entire time in the background. If that's the case, drop it out and clean it up and let the song be what it wants to be which is pop. With the sax I heard a Springsteen kind of thing.... but more like Bruce's sax man Clarence sets in with someone else.
Nice mix and good all around job.
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.
