Tom,Janice & Bud, Shoots my favourite lyrics have been quoted already- its a very good write all the way through and the chorus lead line is pricele$$. A great backup band for an awesome vocalist. Interesting history of those roads...some still to be seen I`m sure in that 4WD. Very good!
Robert Robert, this was a fun project and Janice put it into overdrive. Thanks for the kind words,Tom Hi Janice, Tom & Bud What a cracking song. Great lines, brilliant vocal and a smoking telecaster. Love it. Regards, Leon Thanks Leon, glad you liked it, Tom

Hi Janice, Bud and Tom,
A nice Country rocker you made. Old times revive! And you performed so well in it. I could see the lady in the 4 wheel drive singing "Last thing I’d want is to ride in a luxury car"! Nice song!
Hans

Tom+J&B I personally prefer compact cars, but this is a very cool collaboration. Nice driving rocker! Fun lyrics and Janice did wonders in her "method actor mode"  Positive stuff. Production is excellent. Thank you for sharing. Misha.

J&B and Tom,
My, oh, my . . isn’t that just killer. I like Janice’s voice here in a bit of her upper range—it just slays . . . man, terrific tune. The lyrics sing and rolls so smoothly; the internal and near rhymes sit perfectly. And the production . . . perfect. Love, love, love it!
Hope you are all doing well,
Deej

Tom Janice & Bud First of that guitar sounds wicked. Fun song all round,great vocal and just a clever write (love how it was composed). I've got a new image of Janice running round in my head now - with her sleeve tattoos, and bad A$$ attitude. Peter (actually it's really a bit of a stretch to conjure up that image!!!  ) Peter, Thanks for stopping by and commenting. We appreciate it, Tom

Tom, Janice & Bud,
Excellent! Just a real fun song. Great vocals and guitars. Very talented and so professional. I agree with floyd. Great mix. Everything right where it should be. Pumpin' Bass, Kickin' Drums. Crisp guitars. Loud and Proud. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Excellent on all levels. Is it too fast to boot scoot to? I enjoy the humour and images created - the melody was beamed down. COOL. Thanks much Ray, Tom A bad-a$$ lady, a really big truck, a hot Tele and a master knob twister stitching it all together ... what more could a listener want?
With a team like this, how could it be anything other the best? It's just so good in every possible way. Congrats to all ... very well done! Also, loved that little synched thing just before the ending ... so cool! Really great stuff. Congrats to the whole crew!
Wishing all of you the best. Be safe ...
Alan Alan, we appreciate your support and comments. Thanks for stopping by,Tom

Great song sung great! Guess I'm a city boy, had to look up what a fall line was, I've only heard fault line before. Now I know. Everything came together so well. What a gift that voice is! What a pleasure to listen to it! Terrific work, all!

OUTSTANDING. Absolutely entertaining. What a great vocal and brilliant hook line with the Bad A$$ Lady. Terrific all around, Janice. Man, Tommy Adams, what a wonderfully tasteful guitar! Wow, you 3 are a FUN team. Bud, I think you underestimate your contribution, man. You are VERY inspirational in so many ways, and I feel it wouldn't happen without you. Love it!

Well that's an Excellent song, Janice's voice was made for this song, (nope not a mistake ).
The guitars where full on and varied from all areas of the song, mix and mastering just pro.
Honestly loved this it was like an Eagles sound and style in my opinion, And ill bet Janice never even broke a sweat ?.
All of you done Brilliant , Well done !!.

Are you sure that's method acting? She wasn't playing to type? Fantastic song-writing. Fantastic singing, Fantastic band. Love that little break before the solo (it's pretty on the wave-form too). And the solo. JUST enough. Outstanding.
