Loved the intro Torrey. Kick and guitar work was very cool. Super vocal and lyric. Well done

Torrey, IMHO this is your best to date.

Loved that groove, vocal, and your outstanding lead work.

Everything about this is top shelf.

Loved it.

Hi Torrey,

Your introduction of the song promised a lot and you didn't dissapointed me!
Very Funky song, with a powerfull beat.
Well, I enjoyed it all ("of course", I think I must say by now), but I liked the long outro of the song even more!

And I fully agree with your statement we don't have to break our brains on the question what song we have to make, given modern times.
A lot of people like the music of the older times too. I even think they soon become the new modern music...

Funky, Rocky, Fun!

Torrey,
Wonderful guitar playing! Ace vocals and composition! Good traditional vibe with modern spice. Very creative composition. Arrangement and mix A+ listens very well. Definitely radio ready. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Torrey,
Fantastic musicianship on display- I remember the original and you`ve upped your already impressive game here- your vocals and all instruments are energetic and capture the feel of your musical heroes.
There`s a pro level polish to this- very well done!

What a masterfully done production, Torrey!
Hey, I like the new portrait. This past year had me working a bit with photo-to-sketch software and I'll have to say, you hit it out of the park with this graphic. Bottom line, you're hitting on all eight!

I gave up keeping up with music decades ago. I guess I, like many, are stuck in a music time loop. laugh

What a music treat! So much going on to please my ears. The production sounds like it was done in a professional studio.

Thanks for sharing your talents!


Thanks Dewey! I appreciate the kind words! T

Great song and production!

Awesome vocals, playing, mix and arrangement and the outro is so cool.

The Steely Dan influence on your music is always very pleasing.

Enjoyed it! Rock on.

Fagan and Becker were oozing out from every note of this song.

Extremely well done Danisk production.
