Oh wow! hard to stay still listening to this. Great vocals and good production all around. Thanks!
Mike B. Thanks Mike... bloc-head,
You are continuing to produce some of the best music on the forum!! This is off the charts good! You are blending such cool sounds from so many directions that it's hard to appreciate it all! That chorus is chart topping stuff...for sure it would have been in the 70's!
A big fan here of your material and I am confident you will have many forum members, and beyond, in awe of the fine work you are producing!
Thanks, Torrey And a big thanks to you Torrey, for inspiring us all here on this forum. I'm really happy you liked this.

Hey bloc...can I call you bloc? Bloc-Head seems so formal...I really like your music in general and this one in particular...your lyrics are always clever and interesting to listen to and the music is always a great marriage with them...I'm a harmony lover and this was tight...bluesy tunes always lend themselves to bluesy vocals (makes sense right?)...you nailed it...a great listen...Dan Yes, that does make sense, and yes, you may call me bloc... And thank you for all those very nice, friendly comments. BH,
You have a special relationship with words. They seem to be very obedient. Excellent composition and performance. Positive, well delivered tune. Liked the chorus type doubling harmonies. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thank you for listening, and your positive, and encouraging words... and also, a big thanks for all your insightful comments, and help on the main BiaB foum.

Little Feat from the get-go to the tag. Excellent.
The vocals (all of them) were standout.
The dobro was an excellent choice and worked very nicely.
Good write and mix too. Sounds great on our brand new monitors.
We really don't like the word catchy ... hmmmm how about very engaging!

J&B I'm so happy y'all found this tune "engaging"... it was a fun project. Speaking of "Little Feat"... years ago, after Lowell died, I was fortunate to meet the band members backstage, at one of their concerts, and was graciously allowed to take a direct audio feed, off of their Main Mixer... I recorded the whole show onto four HI-FI VCR tapes... I still have those recordings. Thanks again for listening, and the encouraging words.

Absolutely outstanding!
Great song, great vocal (love the harmonies and BGV's, and the way you have them arranged), very tasty guitar work too.
Sounds totally pro to me. One of the best songs I've heard on here actually, well done!

This is such a well-written, well-produced song, bloc-head. Your vocal is so good and I like the bg ooze and oz. So much fun. The kind of song I can see everyone rocking and celebrating because, yes, it's ALL so good.
