Okay I can officially say now that something about replying to this forum is driving me a little buggy. I'm absolutely sure I hit the enter button yesterday but now I don't see anything insofar as a reply.
Hmmm.
Anyway I really love this. The entire song is smoking. I love the vocal and the guitar playing is just through the roof.
Y'all have an incredible sound. Appreciate all of that, David, thanks!

Attitude,
Hot guitar. Love the tone. Hearing some Joe B influence...
Strong vocal. Chris has a great Blues Rock voice!
Nice organ.
SOLID bass.
Great mix.
Damn Good Music.
fj Thanks for all of that, Floyd As far as the tone goes, as you probably know there is a JoeB preset in S-Gear that I use quite often, or a variation of it anyway. Might have used it for this one.

100% song and production all around. Superb vocals and lead guitar. Quality this excellent should be on sale. It is actually, or will be soon  I sent it off to Spotify, iTunes, etc. a week ago. Thanks for your kind works! VERY noice, I detect a little smoke, some bitterness and a trace of salty treas.
Fab band, fab performances & fab mix. Cheers, Ray!

Dave,
This is a spectacular listen. You, Chris and Marty sound awesome. The song's write and its arrangement are superb. In addition, Chris's vocals were so good that she had me hypnotised. And to cap it all off, your production was exquisite. I'm pretty sure that music can't get any more 'top notch' than this! I loved everything about it.
--Noel Appreciate that, Noel, thanks! Excellent Dave and team.
Stunning vocal and a great write. A bit Gary Moore(ish).
Enjoyed it
Peter Thanks, Peter!

I don't want to diminish your and Marty's role, but every blues gets better when Chris sings. A great, atmospheric song with lots of emotion. Great work from all involved ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

That guitar oozes emotion, and so does the vocal. The bass line illuminates the shadows of broken dreams. The whole production is top of the line and a pleasure to listen to.

<-- I think you know how much I mean by that little icon. Imagine that smile to be as big as a 3-story mansion, and you'll have a fraction of how much fun it is to see how these songs devlope through yours and Chris's talents, and I get to had some bass. HUGE FUN. Well, as the three of us have discussed many times, it's all about having fun! Blue Attitude in all its glory!
Powerful tune. Ace playing by Dave & Marty! Super vocals by Chris. For some strange reason vocal performance, even when it's a completely different genre reminds me of a songs of Tanita Tikaram. Enjoyed my listen and thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thank you Misha! And thanks for turning me onto Tanita Tikaram, I had never heard of her before, she is great! And I can hear the similarities.

The track is excellent. Chris's vocals, in particular, are OUTSTANDING - she really sings with that feeling which pushes songs "over the top". Well done to each and every one of you, though. This is the perfect mix, as far as I'm concerned; for me, not one note out of place. Shades of "It's A Man's World", by James Brown, in places ... but the song is 100% original, nevertheless - and that song is a heck of a song to be compared to . Bravi.

Forget crying in your beer when there’s whiskey and tears. This is great!
Chris just oozes soul and her subtleties in phrasing and dynamics are perfect.
Blues Rock to the max Dave … that soaring solo says it all.
And Marty never fails to lay down a great foundation.
The video supports the song very well and the pouring whiskey during your solo was spot on - loved the whiskey dancing on the ice with your ax.
And your guitar solo has such a rich fat tone.
Loved it!

A classic blues song with bittersweet lyrics, skillful playing and excellent vocal performance. Lyrics are really powerful, "But I ain't no fool/it took me time to see/you can't chain a man/who was born to run free" & "a kiss like a promise a ring like a joke" - a message that won't leave you cold. Noticed new nice details in Chris's voice, I really enjoyed that emotional fragility. Dave's and Marty's playing sound very relaxed, like they have played like that for decades, maybe because they have Can't describe the shivers Dave's solo gave me. All is mixed with perfection, Blue Attitude is premium whisky on the rocks from frozen tears. Janne
