Hello Cap'n ...

Yep - I liked it a lot. I read most of the other reviews, which I don't often do, and read a variety of comparisons you other artists. I tend to agree with the Buffalo Springfield suggestion. Nonetheless, it just sounds like what I've come to anticipate from you. I was not disappointed.

Great lyric, band, vocal and presentation/delivery. I enjoyed your vocal very much. Nicely doine in all respects. Take care and be safe ...

Hello CaptainMoto,

The lyrics are awesome and so true. The tone of the voice lends itself wonderfully. The arrangement is pleasant and the tempo well calibrated to the message.

Kindly regard

Hey Alan,
Thanks for taking the time to listen, read and comment.
The Buffalo Springfield comparison is a new one to me.
Given I generally hate my voice, I'll gladly take any positive comparison.

Thanks

Hi Captain,

What a pleasant surprise hearing you sing this. I liked it immediatly!
I had the impression your vocals would sound more 'massive', but they did nothing of that at all. Nice, gentle and sensitive, with all kinds of twists in the words you sing. Very cool.

And the lyrics? I am afraid they are so true nowadays in your country, or am I talking politics again...

Enjoyed listening very much,

Hans

Thanks Hans,
I'm always struggling with my vocals so, positive reinforcement is always encouraging.

Politics???
I wish there was something else grabbing my attention but, these days even life and death has become political here in the good old U.S.A.
The onslaught of disinformation and deliberate confusion being spewed is overwhelming.

This is great from note one. Hooked me from the start. There are some songs where you just know it's gonna be good right off and this is one of them. That groove you created was just irresistible, like a slow moving river. For some reason, it makes me think of Eric Clapton - something in the sound.

Great song - very much enjoyed!

Hi Captain Moto,

This is a great song... well written, excellently arranged and presented with pizzazz! The topic material reminded me of protest songs from the 60s. As others have said, the mix is excellent and you've got your vocals sitting very comfortably in among the instruments.

This is definitely one to be proud of.

All the best,
Noel

Captain,
I am yet to hear a weak tune from you. Excellent tune, fits perfectly into the theme of your album. Lyrics say it all. Good vocals and guitar work. I too hear (perhaps unintentional) JJ influence. Listens very well, but I do agree with Ray that some d-esser on vocals would benefit this. Also, maybe up the vocal just couple dbs.
Enjoyed my listen. Thank you for sharing.
