Yep, 70's nailed, country nailed. Great set of lyrics free from modern country trope-ism. Hugely enjoyed.
Here's a true story. I'm listening about 2/3 through and thinking to myself "I feel a key change coming." And, by God, no sooner had I thought it then one was delivered.
Any production notes I might have would probably take it out of the 70's, so just know I dug this. All it needs is a jukebox or an audience.
We appreciate that, Tangmo. Had to do a key change - it was a part of almost every Outlaw song.
I left the production fairly simple and predictable throughout - those guys usually kept their stuff like that - they favored "the live band sound" to the slick Nashville thing that was happening at the time otherwise. Part of what gave rise to the movement...
Hi Floyd and Greg
You guys nailed the brief, alright. Great lines (love 'man on a mission/dangerous position' among many others), vocals and overall sound. Terrific collaboration.

Thanks, Leon!
floyd & Greg
Authentic(unsurprisingly)work, great melody, vocals and production.
Really nice chorus, very singable and melodic.
Overall I think it's about as good as it could and should be.
Peter
We certainly appreciate such nice comments, Peter!...
