NOT TURNING BACK

Sorry for my absence lately! I thought I had better drop back in for a song or two! I'm also sorry I've missed some songs by you all, but I'll try to catch up!
This instrumental tune is an uptempo Jazzy type of thing that I hope you all enjoy! Thanks, T

Glad you're back Torrey.
Very cool Instrumental piece... great melodic guitar lead, and I love the background vox too.
This is an outstanding arrangement, but I do miss your always spectacular singing voice & style...
Great to hear from you again.

Very awesome my man.

Reminds me of the glory days of Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer.

Makes me want to play more instrumental music like this too!

Hi Torrey,

Very good song with lots of dynamics - well done.

Best Regards
Nigel

This is a fantastic instrumental

Great lead work

Super backing tracks and effects

Loved that groove change

Loved it

Ah, when Jeff was trying to sound like a keyboard & Jan a guitar.
I saw them in Sydney on the tour than produced "Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live" I think.

Yes Torrey, very Jeff except you use recognizable Torrey Bliss melodies which ups the game.
ACE!

Smokin' Torrey.

Torrey,

A STUNNING instrumental!

Super guitar!

Drums sound great. Love the Bass.

Nice BGVs. Excellent mix.

A Great Listen.

Welcome back Torrey, you've been missed. Another good tune. You have a style all your own and I like it. I sure like the tone and effects you use on your guitar. Great playing and good melody. I like how you blended all your musical thoughts on this one, great mix.

Thanks so much for all the kind words and for taking time to listen! T

Wow, excellent guitar playing Torrey! A very bright yet full guitar sound you've got there.

You surely are "walking" over that guitar neck with great ease :-).

Rob

Nicely done, Torrey!

Love that little melodic hook you came up with, definitely stays with you after the song is done.

Excellent composition, arrangement, and playing.

Loved it!

Quite different from what I was used to from you, Torrey!
Only in the ooh's I recognized it was you.
And what a guitar solo you played. Impressing!

Wow, Torrey, top-notch all the way. I really like your singing, and, man, you can really sing on that guitar, too. LOVE this style of song, and you present it so well. Truly amazing artistry. Of course, I left your Reverbnation page up while typing and have been Inside and on my way to Upside Down. Yep, you are a terrific singer.

Awesome tune Torrey. Loved the tone of your guitar. Awesome phrasing Mix was perfect. Well done

Thanks for the cool funk instrumental, pleasure to listen to the leading groove which then turns to a melodic pop tune and later comes back to the nice fusion bridge. Enjoyed the chord progression, the arrangement and your stylistic guitar playing.

Janne

Torrey...you never cease to amaze me with your versatility and musicianship...love the tone of your guitar on this one...you really tune it in on this one...excellent!!

Thanks David! I would love to hear one of your instrumentals! T

Hey Torrey ...

Beyond cool! You got some ice water to dip those fingers in? I first listened this last night, I think it was. But wasn't feeling well and didn't comment. But I'm very pleased I came back to it to let you know my thoughts. Sweet!!!

No need to parse it out. All is excellent and we most enjoyed it,

That is a challenge
But you master it brilliantly
Excellent played song with a guitar solo worked out to the smallest detail
Absolute top class
Many greetings
