Hi Bob and Joliz,
Some have already said it here, and I will do the same: you are a great storyteller. And you keep listening until the end, and also enjoy the atmosphere you both manage to create. Very good. I had the same expression as Rob (Tunemonger): a garden chair with ambition. That indeed stood out immediately, because it is also very funny!
The solo guitar in between, but also that steel guitar, gives the whole thing a really nice atmosphere.
Very well done, you both!
Hans

Kudos for the choice of style with that great-sounding bass and the steel pedal in the background. The chorus is excellent, with the vocals giving way to the bass; we wish we could hear it a little longer. The vocals, the steel pedal, and the bass give this song a beautiful atmosphere. The chorus shows, once again, that you can make great songs with simple elements.

“We used to play Bob Dylan
On that old machine that chewed up tapes
“Tangled Up in Blue”
Over and over
You said every song was about leaving
I said that wasn’t true”
That is so visual.
We can see the protagonists and the tape player.
Janice said she was getting a Lou Reed vibe.
You are so good at “talking blues.”
We feel like you’re in the same room as us. 😊
Joliz is providing some cool ambiance.
Great mix and we much liked the solo.
Excellent!

Another great outing from our resident poet laureate. The story is as real as it gets. You have been expanding your instrumentation arrangements. This is a gem.

Awesome tune Bob. Loved the groove. Spoken word was very cool. Excellent vocals from you and Joliz. Guitar break was excellent as well. Super mix...
