Time Machine is one excellent song!

Everything is perfect, the mix, vocals, lyrics and backing tracks.

Bob, you have a knack for picking melodies and writing superb lyrics that you can sing flawlessly then finding the perfect backing tracks.

Two thumbs up.

Excellent mix. Everything sits just right.

Mr. Dean...

Your "Time Machine" is upfront, in-your-face and personal laugh! That rhythm, that rhythm, that RHYTHM! It's not just rhythm you feel -- it's a rhythm that feels you up! It's a motion-finder, a soul-sensor, a compass on the floor

with an arrow spin-ning back/
and forth/
to the beat/
so we can move and groove/
to the beat/
and move/
and groove/
and do it a-gain...

I think that your voice -- solo and in harmony -- is raw, urgent, and unrestrained, crooning a rocker's blues. It's a perfect counterpoint to the electricity of the guitars and the bass pulsing like a coded signal.

The lyrics are wildly imaginative as they FLASH scenes and meanings as rapidly as a kaleidoscope. The whole thing is classic, a rocker's fever-dream.

You treated us to a lot of sound and style, Mr. Dean. Rock on!

Hi Bob,

Another super cool throw-back from you. You have this genre mastered. I don't think anyone here does this better than you. Lyric, backing tracks and vocal - perfect prosody. I enjoyed the trip a lot! Best to you,

We're bit late on this and many of the accolades have already been offered.

We particularly agree with Tom's mention of how the write is poetic yet leaves the listener some dots to connect.

What struck us was how much the song reminded us of early Wilco. A vibe that we very much like.

Having said that your signature feel is still much present.

You have certainly started 2018 with a couple of great entries and we look forward to what's coming up.

Enjoyed it!

This song is brilliant! The lyrics are outstanding! I love how you use the phrase twice then once per verse. genius! And your vocal is simply so right in emotion and delivery and prosody.

And the mix is wide and so well done.

This song lands perfectly!
