Welcome back - although travelling Europe is a pretty great excuse not to post! Really liked the tune - the old school rock n' roll groove on this got my foot tapping right away, and your vocal delivery was top notch as well. The harmonies complimented the lead vocals perfectly and were a great touch. Plus that solo at 1:30 is fantastic! Solid tune altogether. Can't wait to hear more from you - thanks for sharing  Many thanks, Deryk and pleased you approved my excuse for absence! Really glad you liked the song and, yes, I should be back to posting regularly this year. Thanks for all the nice comments, especially about the solo. Cheers, ROG.

Rock on ROG!!!
What a cool surprise to see a new song from you.
This contains all the goodness we have learned to love from your productions over the years...so not unexpectedly, the write, your vocals, and your guitar/bass performance are top notch (as are the RT/RD choices and the mix).
As floyd mentioned it sticks with you...begging for another listen which we are about to do!
Kudos!
J&B Hi there J&B. Hey, thanks for looking in! As always, I really appreciate getting a review from you two, and I'm so pleased you liked it. Looking forward to spending more time here this year. Cheers, ROG.

The drums in the beginning announced what the song was about, and there were no disappointments. This does everything a rocker should do in all the right places! Super fun listen.  Hi David. Many thanks for the comments - much appreciated. Cheers, ROG

Nice to see, and hear, you back Rog. This is a very tasty bit of rock to be sure! it reminds me of the old Steve Gibbons band. The vocal delivery is just right for the sentiment, and the drive is just perfect. Good stuff!  John Hi John. Yeah, I remember Steve Gibbons - saw the band live back in the early 70s. Brilliant! I actually share the same birthday as Steve, but he's a bit older than me. In fact, he's still gigging now at age 77. As Tom Petty said - If you never slow down, you never grow old. (Last Dance With Mary Jane) So, it's good to be back and many thanks for the kind review. Cheers, ROG.

Hi Rog,
I'm pretty new to this forum, so this is the first song of yours that I had the great pleasure to listen to. Very nice, needless to say that the girl you're adressing must be Maybelline's daughter...
That's a veery fresh way to continue what Chuck started - I really enjoyed it a lot !
And I think I'm not the first one to tell you that your voice and way of singing has a lot in common with the young Ray Davis, for example singing 'Too Much Monkey Business'... Just to make sure: That's a huge compliment !
Stefan Hi Stefan. Many thanks for looking in on this one and I take it all as a complement! Always been a fan of Chuck Berry and I guess it shows through a bit in this one. Thanks again for the nice comments. Cheers, ROG

Rog, I just sat back and smiled listening to what you did with a 3 chord song! Excellent man!!! Guitar was great along with all vocals!! I really liked the effects on the background vocals! It made me realize how I need to pay more attention to that part of my workflow! Thanks, Torrey

Love the old 60s style rock and roll. Hear a twinge of Tom Petty in the vocals. Definitely one to get you up and dancing. Good write.

This is great. It sounds like the songs that came out of the rock resurgence in the late 70's. A lot of fun, great lyrics, and searing energy!

Hi ROG,
This is a really well created and equally well presented song. I reckon that classic rock n roll is one of the most inviting musical genres around and you've capitalised on all it brings to the table. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. In fact, my feet started bouncing up and down from around bar 1 beat 2 and just kept on going until the end.
Very, very listenable music iced with very entertaining lyrics and singing!
All the best,
Noel

I'm a great fan of both Rock & Roll and Tom Petty, so I guess it's showing through in this one. Cheers, ROG.
