I agree with others in that the song is begging for a vocal to push the expression.
Tone is ace - clean with fur.
The licks n lines are really good - no over play & there're holes left for the head n heart to fill.
Your lead journey is really taking long, assured strides.

Much appreciated, ray.

Super clean tone. That axe of yours is crying! Outstanding chops.
I am a blues fan and I have records and CD recordings of the blues all the way back to those great black artists with one guitar and one foot pounding out the tempo. Thus I can say with some authority that this is one outstanding blues instrumental.

Wow, Mario - Thanks! Heart warming...

Thanks for that, Ron. Really.
