Hey Ron!

Always good to hear a new one from you. Had to listen to it twice!

And yeah, I got a late 60s to early 70s country fell from it. I couldn't come up with a particular group it sounded like. Maybe that's a good thing - it sounds like DC Ron!

What I like about your vocals are its sonic characteristics. Your voice is semi-soft and a wee bit raspy. And you typically sing the individual words with a slight staccato effect - you don't hold the words very long. All of that works well for me.

I particularly enjoyed the strong kick drum. It was very much up front, yet not intrusive on the rest.

The only thing that might have added just a bit more to the song would be more differentiation in the chorus - particularly the drums. A ride cymbal just loud enough to break through might be helpful.

All that said, it's a really good song that's fun to listen to. My older brother (deceased 5 years back) drove OTR for J.B. Hunt for many years. Bakersfield, CA, to Manitoba, Canada, and then to New York was his usual run. A lot of your story in this song reflects well on many of his circumstances that didn't work out as good as he would have liked.

Much enjoyed@!
