Dave & Marty,
Another super song and production. All the expected excellence from both of you shines in this great song. Love the tone on the lead guitar! Marty's bass just the right amount of punch.
A great example of excellence in music.
Take care,
Alan

Dave
Your are speaking/singing some really truthful stuff here! Your guitar work is always so impressive to me! You have great tone for a blues type guitar solo that really delivers the goods! Marty's bass work is not to be overlooked here either.....always in the pocket and so solid! Dave you did a fine job singing this I know you are looking forward to Chris joining you for a project and it will be great to hear her again. You are doing just fine!
Thanks TB Very kind of you, Torrey, thanks! Hi Dave,
Good song and I loved that guitar work - excellent.
Best Regards
Nigel Appreciate that, Nigel!

What a good song, Dave. You have a real knack for writing catchy melodies and hooks that turn into earworms. Your vocals are quite engaging and wonderfully unique. Thanks for letting me play bass, and then making it sound even better in the mix. The video for this one is WAY over the top, and thanks for getting me involved with CoPilot.

Dave and Marty, the first thing that came to my mind was Bloomfield and Kooper.
Loved that axe!
Marty's bass is always in the pocket.
Great vocal and mix.
Blues at its absolute best. Hi Mario, Man, Mike Bloomfield is one of the best guitarists that ever lived! WAY ahead of his time, better than all his contemporaries (in my opinion of course) and his playing still sound fresh today. I've heard most, maybe all, of his stuff. And of course the Super Session albums he did with Al Kooper are classic! Unfortunately due to his childhood he suffered from very low self esteem which led to drug and alcohol abuse. Thanks for the support, very much appreciated! Hi, Dave. What to say? Blues, screaming lead guitar, excellent vocals, nice write, solid groove with the bass and drums. Excellent!  Thanks, David!

The lyrics say it all. Superb musicianship at both the low and high end. The lead sings from the soul. Wowza!

Hi BlueAttitude,
Nice video to illustrate your composition. The melody is very pleasant. I noticed that you also like the bmp 85 which lends itself very well to very soft compositions. Well done. I appreciated.
Jani.
Kindly regards

Dave / Marty,
You guys are a blues machine... Everything about this is great. Also love the video.
Excellent song and production.
Bob Thanks, Bob! Dave, really nice concise blues write. The guitar is on fire. Great feel and tone. Your vocal is excellent and delivers the message well. Marty’s bass is always in the pocket. This is modern blues at it’s best, Tom Quite a compliment coming from a pro like you  Thanks! I'm always impressed by your guitar solos with Marty on bass, I could listen to you for hours.
There's a certain magic between you two.
Your voice sounds a bit raspier than usual, but I think it fits the song well.
Mixing/production is really good! Yeah, we have fun which is what matters at the end of the day. Thanks!

World weary vocals and a stinging guitar held up to the ear on fat, fat bass.
Excellent. Thanks, Ray! Awesome song! Love the lyrics, and the world weary vocals are perfect. The guitar screams in all the right ways and places, and the bass is rock solid. Awesome song...did I say that already? Worth repeating. Appreciate that, Ron! Dave & Marty
Great work. Excellent song and great to hear you stretching out on that melodic solo.
Top stuff.
Peter Thanks, Peter!

I have a new mix, mostly tweaked the harmony vocal and the rhythm guitar. Can't update the mix on YouTube, so new mix is up on ReverbNation: Music from the Soul

Music straight from the soul, and from the heart, you really tell what you are doing. I can feel how those guitar notes are directly connected to your soul. Great work with the vivid video that paints that soul on the canvas of musical realm. Excellent use of Marty, BIAB instruments and the drums sound really good. I enjoy to hear your singing, there's something very warm and personal.
I don't usually listen to much blues, but I could listen to Blue Attitude all day.
Janne

The blues are still there. beautiful guitar solo
Laurent I never stray too far away from the blues  Thanks! Great work Dave and Marty!
Love this.
It has a real Santana feel to it. Nice chops y'all! Wasn't intending it to sound like Santana, but I played a lot of his songs back in the day. Some of that style stuck I guess Thanks! Dave & Marty,

Love this song Dave. Boy does this sound good on the studio speakers. Excellent vocal and lyric. Guitar was awesome as well and Marty's basslines give the song such cool feel. Definitely felt the soul in this too.
