I agree with ray on The Band reference - it would have been one that Levon Helm would take the lead...

An excellent sound. I like the mix. (one small note - the BIAB pianos are often pretty mid-range-y and can use a bit of high end brightening to keep them from getting too close to the BIAB mid-range-y rhythm guitars)
Killer vocals and harmonies.
Good Music.
Thanks for the great feedback & advice Floyd... I normally make use of a Hi-Pass filter on Piano RTs.
I call it "mud removal".

Excellent vocals, and the harmonies are perfect and perfectly placed. A very engaging song with a catchy melody. Man, Brent is always a good choice. An outstanding professional sound, bloc-head. Anyway, I love it!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Great vocal - it really makes the song.
Along with the harmonies, the guitar work, the band, the accordion...
You're really posting some top-shelf songs!

Sounds good though!


I forget what band it was but a few years ago, a band, sold ONE copy of their new album...... yep, just one. It was several hundred thousand IIRC.

Bloc.... what a cool song. Yep, I hear the Band in there as well as a touch of Springsteen in the accordion. Those vocal harmonies are spot on. Sweet as honey. Nice choice on the instruments and very tastefully mixed.
grin;-) If I can just sell this one song, I'll be $10 richer... Thanks

Thank you Marty, I had every intention of replacing Brent's solo with my own, but it was just too good... I'm happy you liked the song. Thanks again for the great feedback...

Excellent twist on the love lost theme.

The accordion was a nice touch.

Well done!

I really can't remember why I came up up with these lyrics...
I must have had a bad dream. "Anyway", we're still in love, after all these years, in spite of some of my bloc-head lyrics.
Thanks for the nice feedback.
