Hi Tom ...
Did you graduate from SIU? As I think you know, I'm originally from St. Louis, not far away from Carbondale (been there numerous times). Home of the Salukis!
Great song, Tom! For my ears, had Waylon's style written all over it. Lots of truth in the lyric - some things should simply be left to die in peace. Loved the crunch in the guitars. And the extended drums at the end were perfect!
You give country music a good name! Keep up the good work!
Alan I did graduate from SIU. Thanks for the wonderful comments and your continued support over the years. Hope you're doing better, Tom

Yowzers! Man, have you listened to Brothers Osborne? (not the Osborne Brothers  ) We love this and it nails their vibe and even your vocals are similar in tone and phrasing. Pitch it to them! You wrote a great backstory to set up the song story. Sounds like a well honed gigging band and your guitar is perfecto. We've said it a hundred times and by golly here it is again. Your productions are pro level and set a high bar for many including us to only dream of. Outstanding all the way around Tom! J&B In reference to the Brothers, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. They were definitely on my mind. Thanks for all that good stuff, Tom

Hello Tom,
Vocals and guitars are great.
The guitar riff in the intro is really cool.
Rock and country are blended well and it feels good.
And there is a bit of a Western movie image.
If I drink while listening to this song, it would be I.W. Harper 12 Years Old.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

What a great song, Tom! Good grove, catchy. Especially love those second verse lyrics!!
p.s. FJ told me you had taken a break/trip. Apparently you found good song material along the way:)
Scott Thanks, Scott. The trip has provided several new songs, Tom I knew in the first 10 seconds that this was going to be a killer tune. I wasn't wrong.
Nice one! Glad you made it by and I always appreciate your comments,Tom

That's a very, very good song, Tom!
I love everything of it; the guitar, the rhythm, the percussion, vocals, lyrics... well everything. This is how Country Rock must sound, I think.
Like David wrote, this is really a radio ready song, must become a hit. I'm sure!
I've played it several times now, great song and that outro, great!
Hans
(yet I'm curious what bad things happened then) Thanks for all that. I’m going to take my own advice and let those memories stay buried, Tom

Cool lyric Tom. Boy when I go back to my home town. I hardly recognize it anymore. Super vocal and excellent backtrack. Guitars were excellent as well. Thanks Scott. I guess things change, not always for the best, Tom

Tom,
Super drive! Excellent guitar playing and hook. Ace vocals! Mix is clear and large. Powerful stuff. Liked the backstory too.
Thank you for sharing!
