Tom,
What a huge sounding tune! Man, did you ever do this story justice with this song! You make some of the very best music posted here and this proves it! Great guitars and vocals!
Thanks, T

Thanks, T I agree with Torrey. This sounds really good (on every device). You managed to keep a constant high quality in each of your recordings I've heard through the years. Quite an achievement! Rob

Love the the guitar. That really brings the listener in, along with the vocal. This is a hit as far as I'm concerned. Thank you for the great review. I’m glad you liked it, Tom Tom,
YOU are the complete package.
I was just complimenting Dave Bell on his Producer chops (Coast Of Sadness). All that applies to you (doubly).
You write and play at that same level.
Your Audio Engineering is so far past everyone else it isn't even funny.
You get an acoustic guitar sound that is to-die-for.
Electric and Bass POP. Drums, too.
Vocals stand loud and proud and tucked-in perfectly.
Excellence in all direction.
fj Agree with everything Floyd says!!! Great song and Great track......EVERYTHING!!!! Take care. Greg Greg, you know that I’m always happy to hear from you. Thanks,Tom

Rob Thanks Rob. It's good to know that the mix translates well. I probably don't check that as much as I should, Tom

WOW! First, we enjoyed the video of the American Nomad and are sure it was hard to pull yourself away from him. We would’ve loved to have been there hearing the two of you swap stories! We'd quote our fav section of the lyric but that would be the entire write!  What an awesome song resulted from that encounter, Tom. The vivid imagery is like a mini short story. Jerry Ellis has written some great books where he walks the trail, roads, etc. related to his subject, e.g., Trail of Tears, and focuses on the characters he meets. Your write reminds us of him. Your vocals and guitars sound great. Of course the mix is WAY over the top good and the arrangement is excellent as is the band. That r guitar with the "hair around the edges" is superb. Loved it! J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

J&B As I mentioned before, you can’t make this stuff up. Thanks for the heads up on Ellis. Sounds like he’s right up my alley. Thanks for all the uplifting words, Tom
