Thanks, OM (you are in my prayers -hehe). Wonder if playing the alarm backwards puts you to sleep.

Dave's guitar sounds great, a perfect player for the genre. Performance and mix is ACE. I wish I could say something useful, but there is nothing I would change. Congrats on another fun collab!
Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Thanks, Misha. You have no idea how useful your comment really is; it is highly flammable fuel for the next project.

The use of THEEE rather than the softer the (thuh) sticks out.
Partially because of my regional bias but also becasue THEE seems to be a bit emphatic and formal in that line.
I wouldn't change it for me but have a listen and suss out whether formality and emphasis are required.
The song's a cracker ... I really enjoyed it.

Thanks so much, Ray. Man, I wish you were there when I was writing this. Much angst was put into that decision. You're absolutely right about the formality of THEE; it sounds rather biblical. You're also correct in that the long e is only used preceding a word that starts with a vowel or a silent h. Thuh sounded too duh so I tried changing the lyric, but the "the" always ended up in there. If it was a 16th note, it would've been fine, but it always ended up as a dotted 8th --too long for a duh sound. Wait --thanks for the inspiration, Ray. Here is what it should be: "Comin' home one night... or was it earlier next day?"


There are no rules in rock and roll :-)

Hi Marty and Dave
I'm partial to a little alliteration myself. Nice bluesy tune well sung and played, guys.

Leon

Thanks so much to everyone for taking the time for listening and leaving such encouraging comments. I apologize for not being able to reply to each and every one, but there is a lot of hecticness here these days. Seems when I get a moment to stop by the forum I get so lost in all the new stuff you folks post that I run out of time to say thank you. Your comments keep a smile on my face during these times, and I truly appreciate it.


Enjoy whatever happens!
