But I'll add to that re the also excellent lyrics that on social media I've occasionally referred to humans/citizens as "economic units" as that's what we've become. You're either a positive, neutral or negative economic unit. Bankers' actual jargon for persons who pay their credit bills on time is "deadbeats" as no profit is being made from them.
Thanks, Chay. I'm often accused of being ridiculously positive, but I'm proud to be a negative when it comes to bankers.

Dave's excellent guitar tone adds a heaviness to the subject. Perfect mix as well.

You are producing some killer music!

Bob
Thanks, Bob. We are definitely having fun.

Stupidly, I forgot Dave does all your guitar work. I'm a huge fan of the Kings - I like the influence here. Great post. With all your songs, is Soundcloud going to cut you off one day ; ) Hope not.
Thanks, Bob The Second. It would be friendship abuse to bug Dave to do all my songs, but those he does he always makes better. He could've surely been an in-demand session player. I finally got the upgrade on SC, mostly for the unlimited uploads and the ability to replace tracks. Their other hypes are bogus.

Great vocal and super lyrics that are so true
Outstanding guitar and bass lines
Loved that groove
Loved that song
Thanks, Mario. Glad we were able to scare you, but we know you are a true-blue bluesman.

Thanks, Ron. You are the superest superlativist. "Santana meets Zappa." I can visualize that.

Masterful! Fun to listen to, and, as always, super production. Great work!
Thanks, Tom. I think I was a limerick writer in a past life. When I say I write the lyrics, it's true. I write them but don't know where they come from.

Great work guys.

Thanks, Laurent. Isn't it funny we call this work when we have so much fun playing.

Thanks, Arri. Gary Santana or Carlos Moore. either way Dave is unique.

Enjoy whatever happens!
