I recently have posted some older tracks but this one is fresh. I feel the RealDrums in the BIAB program are the best sounding drums one can use in their project!(For me at least) They alone are worth the price of admission! For this track I used only RealDrums from the program and played all the other instruments myself. This is a Blues/Rock track that deals with some heavy subject matter, but was inspired to put together over the last couple of weeks. Lyrics are in YouTube video. Thanks in advance for listening and may God bless! Torrey

Torrey,

This is really well done.

Impressive that you did all the parts yourself.

Cool opening. Nice guitar work. Cool "figure" at 1:00... had a sorta YES feel... the guitar at 1:40 is exceptional! - all the fills after that are, too...

Nice mix. Everything works. Nice stuff in that bridge...

An excellent piece of music!

Excellent piece of music - reminds me of recent Clapton.
Really strong songwriting and great musicianship all round.
Nice vocal effect on the slow part.

Hi Torrey,

Well, Rob has something to say about this:
Such a cool video, you sure have many talents wink

The sound reminds us very much of Donald Fagen (but we think we said that once before).
And that sure is a compliment!

Rob and Anne-Marie

Torrey,

Your impressive musical talents are all on display here - this sounds great played loud! I always enjoy the pop sophistication you bring to your songs and this is one of your best.
Highly professional, sung and played with great feeling.

Super tune Torrey. Excellent job on all the instruments. Guitar was smoking. Vocal and lyric were excellent

We think Floyd summed this up pretty good. We watched the YouTube movie ... totally cool and exceptional. You are a gifted player, writer and arranger with terrific technical skills. Congrats on a steallar project. We loved it - and that's the truth! Standing "O"!

Torrey, and exceptional write.

This has a sensational feel, it is vibrant, and musically incredibly strong.

The vocals and harmonies are not any less than absolutely excellent, and clearly a fantastic musical contribution with your instrumentation works.

This song has it all.

Torrey,

Back listening again (6th or 7th time in the past couple of days). This is such a great production - watch the YouTube version each time. Just wanted to say once again how much we enjoy this and compliment you on your wonderful work. This isn't just a great song - it's a fabulous project!

A big ole DITTO to what Tom said.

Man, if we had the chops to play all that I suspect we'd spend a LOT more time making music. Really impressive! The pro sounding "big studio" mix is amazing.

And a nice video to boot.

Kenny said it right! Excellent all the way around. I heard the YES thing in the transition between the two parts. Truly a pleasure to listen to!! Take care. Greg

Hello, Torrey

Very cool song!
The melody lines and your vocals are wonderful as usual.
The cliché chord progressions (Am7 - Am6 - Am#5 - Am) repeated frequently are very effective.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Sweet intro! I like the chorus fx on the vocals. A reel tight production that suits the groove well.

Very tasteful guitar fills through out.

Wonderful write and production!

We just checked it out. The vocal, and it seems some of the guitar tracks, are more distinct. This is one of the coolest videos we've seen on the boards. Great in every possible way!

Torrey,

This is superb! Everything resonates with clarity, quality and talent. Your writing, arranging, playing, singing, producing are exemplary.

It sounds like you pulled out all stops when putting this one together. It's a really fine work.

I'm heading back for another listen now!

Noel

Well....

I can't add to what's already been said so I'll just echo all other comments.
Well written, produced and good vocals.

A very smooth, appealing song.....I like this one.

Back to it....

Just in case Torrey Doesn't get a chance to get back to this, he edited the video and replaced the original with the edited video. Here's the link:
