They are beautiful, but if you were to pitch this as an era piece you might need to take them out and just it let ride without them. So maybe you could have two version in case you want to pitch it as a period piece?? I could be wrong.

Bob already mentioned the Roy Orbison-ish vocal slides, but it's worth mentioning again. Nice! -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it.

It got my toe tapping the whole way through, and I can't help but imagine how amazing this would sound performed live. Your vocal performance is seriously on point here as well. Great work, and thanks so much for sharing Cheers, Deryk

Your vocal kind of reminds me of a mix of Jim Reeves and Marty Robbins. Not a bad thing at all! Great work! Thanks, Torrey https://torreybliss.bandcamp.com/
