Oh, Moto man, you are one of my favorite blues guys. A little blues rap this time. Missed ya, man. Very creative "double-tracking." Cool lyrics and a wonderful delivery. That's a wonderful compliment. Thanks Marty

Great song, Captain about a truly unfathomable subject. A horror show indeed. Love the groove, and am very impressed by how you 'messed around' with those vocals.
Regards,
Leon

Vintage Vibe indeed...this sounds like it's looking for classic Blaxploitation film to soundtrack.
There's a stack up of sibilant sounds in the 1st verse particularly... in the 1st verse. I suspect that's a result of some processing like reverb.
COOL.
Cheers

Great original song. Vocals worked really well - loved the octave thing.
Good choice of BIAB tracks. The wah guitar tied everything together nicely.
Cheers,
Mike

COOL. Thanks Ray, No doubt, the vocal processing is pretty heavy handed. I certainly wasn't aiming for smooth and clear, I think one of the last things I did was apply some top end boost to bring out a little clarity, probably over did that.

Captain, you captured today's 6:00 PM news to a tee!
Super catchy groove with a very important message. Loved those vocal effects.
The is your best to date IMHO and one of if not the best funk song posted in the forum.
Loved it!
I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Sad and unfortunately true.
That is a tough theme to write around...as we know from such an effort. You grabbed the feel and presented it most creatively ... right in the face.
No need to parse things out. It is well written, arranged, performed (vocals and guitar) and mixed.
As they say in this neck of the country it's strong as a garlic milkshake!

Thanks for listening. Quite a while back, I did a song/video after the Shooting at Sandy Hook. Too much hate coming my way , had to take it down. We're living in a crazy world.
