Peter & Leon,
Loose, live-sounding and fun; and that wild close somehow fits ( after all, if you can`t handle the surprises of the road, better stay home!).
Really good guitars and an excellent write- I feel like I know that guy.

"I travel, I travel light
Never was cut out to be a suburbanite
I travel, baby, I travel far and near
I’m a denizen of the road; I want to make that clear"

Leon has great skills in writing poetically but NEVER
in a stilted or overly abstract manner. It always works so well.

There's a traveling feel to the whole production with the bouncy
feel, the segue to the fast tempo and ultimately the wild outro.

Nice slide and vocals too!

Y'all make a great team. Almost like you've known each other
all your lives...Hahahaha!

Most enjoyable,

J&B

I saw the length of the song, and wondered where it was going to go at the halfway mark.

Hahahahahaha! laugh

Love the gratuitous guitar solo.


Thanks David, always a place for a gratuitous solo.

Stay safe, guys,

Thanks Stefan- glad the ending worked for you.

Thanks for sharing smile


Thanks Deryk

The only thing is it will be some challenge to travel that far nowadays! It's a silly joke, but you made it yourself I just saw after writing it ;-).
To me everything sounded good, full of power and -again- Leon did a very good job on that sologuitar. Is it still working after your 'treatment'?

Hans


Thanks Hans

Wow, that really took a turn north in energy level! I was listening to this nice mid-tempo tune and then BAM! comes the guitars!! Very cool! Little bit of a jolt transition wise, but cool once my brain heard it once. Listened several times, nice work!

Right on! Fantastic guitar work, super vocal, and a great mix. This should be on the radio today!

Super song!
