Rog
I agree with floyd:
"There is something about it that reminds me of the Dire Straits debut. Not that it SOUNDS like Dire Straits, but it has that immediate appeal - you want to listen to each part as it is happening."
Nice guitar playing throughout.
Sounds excellent.
Peter Many thanks, Peter. Appreciate all the nice comments. Cheers, ROG.

Well, that was definitely what I wanted!
Felt like I was in the garage with you - love the whole thing but especially the intro and the attitude - punching out each word on that chorus line-sounded nice and snarly.
Excellent song.
Robert
Hi Robert. Love the "garage" comment. Yes, that's exactly what I was after. Many thanks for the review. Cheers, ROG.

Sounds dire straits to me and great fun.
Thumbs up!

Hey ROG,
Great old retro sound! The drums remind a little bit of the Jefferson Airplane's "The Other Side Of This Life." I heard something somewhere between 'The Birds' and 'Jefferson Airplane'.
Glad you got this one. This is how you end the year and a good note! Everything about this shines ... excellent song and production.
Merry Christmas.
Alan Hi Alan and many thanks for the review. I've always been a fan of Jefferson Airplane, right through from the early blues days to Starship's rock ballads! Glad you liked this one and hope you had a good Xmas. Cheers, ROG.

ROG, That highly compressed drum sound is killer and sets up the raw 60's vibe perfectly. Great guitar playing. Super stops. This thing ROCKS!!! Smokin Hot. Love it, Tom Hi Tom. Drum tracks have such a huge dynamic range that back in the tape days we always had to wind up the compressor and then we'd still have the VUs banging on the end stops! Old habits die hard. Hey, glad you liked it - I had a lot of fun putting it together. Cheers, ROG.

This is great. Yeah it is kind of Dire Straits, but more ROG to me.  The guitar playing is great, and I love the mix, especially the drums. Hi David. Hey, that's a really nice thing to say. Pleased you liked it and many thanks for the review. Cheers, ROG.

ROG, great retro vibe on this! It's mid 60's Stones all the way to me! Pure ole rock and roll! Nice little sole in the middle! Thanks, Torrey

Sounds like a lost Rolling Stones song, one of the rare times I wish the mix was not so good to get even more authentic feel Great rocking drums and strong vocals, universal message in the lyrics. Janne Hi Janne. What a super complement. Many thanks. Cheers, ROG.

Cool tune ROG!! Like the retro feel, particularly the drums. With your background story, you reminded me how much I miss the old tape machines. New digital stuff is so powerful, convenient, and easy with tons of advantages but music just sounds better when you're watching the reels spin and the tape go by the heads. Great sound on this-your mixes are always fantastic! Enjoyed!! Merry Xmas! Take care. Greg Hi Greg. Yeah, the tape machines had a certain magic - until they went wrong! I remember re-winding a full spool of two inch tape when the motion sensing and brakes failed and the feed reel nearly broke the sound barrier. But yes, things just did sound better. Many thanks for the kind comments. Cheers, ROG.

ROG,
I apologise for taking a while to get this.
This whole presentation sparkles and gleams with professionalism. The sound is amazing. The mix, your playing, your arranging, everything, is spot on and to my ears, each component piggy-backed on every other component and created a really satisfying aural journey.
Really enjoyable music!
All the best for 2018,
Noel

Hi Rog,
I don't usually reply to the songs on the forum, because I am not a musician, I hear songs, if you know what I mean, but this song is so brilliant you could place it in the hit parade.
All the very best.

George George, what can I say? That's one of the nicest reviews I've ever had. The fact that you don't comment often makes it even more special. Thank you SO much. Cheers, ROG.

Basic recording techniques still produce that rawness that modern producers layer a hundred tracks trying to capture. And.. you just showed 'em how to do it..
Great way to end the year. Enjoyed my listen.

Charlie Hi Charlie. It's great to have access to all the modern recording systems with unlimited tracks and every conceivable effect, but yes, it's still necessary to get back to basics for the raw power that the early recordings possessed. Many thanks for this listen and review. Cheers, ROG.

I'm very late to this 60's party but I'm glad that I did. Everything that I wanted to say already has been said.
Super song that sounds like it could have come from the Stones first album!
A super live feel to this.
This is a keeper.
