Very nice arrangement. Kept my interest throughout the song.

Dean,

Always loved this song except when performed by U2.
This version is up to your extremely high standards, I thoroughly enjoyed the few listens.

But I just hoped that my computer would not self destruct in 5 seconds after I had chosen to listen!!!

Good to hear you back

Just great. Rhythmically this must
have been a beast to create. A LOT
of work I'd imagine.

Very cool engaging listen that is
WELL worth repeat listens.

Kudos!

Hey Tommy,

I just got through listening to you and Martin Jones on Conundrum. Holy Whatnot, man! I haven't put my SC comment in yet, but your knife-edged blues playing had me feeling around the carpet for my eye balls. Very good B3 and bass there. That can't RealBand, gotta be a Real Band!

Oh yeah, I'm glad you liked Mission Impossible.

Alyn,

First, thank you for your kind welcome. This is not a lie: The computer DID self-destruct ... however, as much as I'd like to think it was overpowered by my guitar playing, it turned out to be a complete coincidence. That's one of the reasons I've been away so long: trying to get the blasted thing repaired and, ultimately, having to replace it. Hard drives, like any mechanical device, eventually wear out and three years of relentless pushing was more than enough.

Oh yes, I'm glad you enjoyed Mission Impossible.

Charlie - are you and Jim related? Man, I hope I didn't get my replies confused, but in any case, thank you for the kind words.

Greg,

Thank you so much my friend. I was really touched by the mention of your concern and I want to assure you and all the Forum members that I'm in as good a shape as ever. As I mentioned, the same is not true for my computer, which had been sadistically toying with me during its death throes. If I suffered anything, it was the Mother of All Headaches.

I'm just getting used to my new one, except for one thing: It came with Windows 8 !! Just when I thought I didn't need the aspirin bottle anymore. Where's Gates? Lemme at 'im !!

Oh, and thanks for the kind words about Mission Impossible.

Hi Guenter,

Thank you for your kind welcome. It's good to be back, but I won't be submitting that much in the future because of a certain word I've heard more than once applied to me. Maybe now is the time for someone, perhaps you, to explain what a "dumper" is. Whatever it is, it doesn't sound good and my first guess was that it was someone who gluts up the Forum with too many submissions. Am I right on that? I'll freely admit that I'm not the best Forum member if all the criteria are applied. I never should have won that BIAB contest and I was flabbergasted that Dani did not win.

Anyway, I'm glad you like Mission Impossible.

Hey Mike,

Now there's a humbling compliment. Thank you, my friend - and it's good to be back after fighting a battle to the death with my previous computer. I'm not sure who won. Can you be poisoned by too many hours on the phone with Sweetwater Tech Support?

Hey Dean, I am sorry to report that that is a different blues playing Tom Adams. He's great, however I am the real Tom Adams! Keep posting, we missed you. Tom

What more can I say than "sensational".

Loved your playing on all instruments: 'Versatile Virtuoso'

If only you added drums you wouldn't have needed the band!

Thanks a million, enjoyed it to the very last note
