Sometimes I wonder if the blues was invented for guitar players as an excuse to play extended solos. Cool, awesome solos, occasionally interrupted by lyrics. Well done.

Tom,
Love your guitar and the kick-[*****] feel of this... and the lyrics are pretty cool too:
If you're running from the Devil that's the place you oughta go Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road
Nice way to end the year!
Robert Kick-[*****] pretty much sums it up!! Great stuff! Love the interesting "steps" in the melody-really unusual and effective. You pretty much run the gamut of styles with only one thing in common in all your tunes- THEY'RE GREAT!! Loved this! Take care. Greg

Yep, the intro is cool as is all the guitar. Yep, the write is cool. Yep, the production is killer.
AND...the vocal, man, your vocals just become richer and richer and more and more nuanced. This is outstanding!
We'd buy an album of this stuff in a heart beat. It gave us a bit of reminder of "The Rides."
All said, this is great blues rock!
We played this for a musician friend the other day and he was knocked out by the production. And then I told him how it was done and he just looked at us in disbelief.
Thanks for sharing this.
J&B

Hi Tom. Can stand a lot of this! Reminds me of boozy times somehow. This line is great "Nobody's looking for you when you're living at the end of the road". Yeah. Cheers.

Tom,
A cool intro, indeed. It's the added touches that set songs apart...
A good blues-rock write. And a great set of RTs to pull it off. (those drums are perfect).
Your guitar work is excellent - again, adding the extra icing...
A classic sound. terrific vocal. excellent mix - crisp!
Super cool. Looking forward to what you do in '17!
fj Glad you liked it! Thanks, Tom Yeah, Smoking track! Great hearing you cut loose on the guitar.
Reminds me of that Freddy King tune "Going Down", similar riff.
Loved everything about this, enjoyed the listen! Dave, It's great to get a thumbs up from a blues guy. Thanks, Tom

Oh Hayle Yeah. Now that's what I'm talking about. Thanks David. Tom Great song! Great guitar and very goods arrengements. Thanks, I appreciate the listen and the comments. Tom Sometimes you just gotta crank it!
Wish I could! But, listening to it at a "desk volume" still sounds amazing (...and doesn't distract the PG Team workin' hard at their desks!)
This is today's Hot Forum Topic! Callie thanks for the bump to the first page. It's always an honor when that happens! Tom

Back again....We've now listened to this on our monitors, earbuds, the "living room" system and in two vehicles. The mix is strong on every system and that is the sign of a great one. The drums, the piano, and your playing just cut. Already mentioned the fine vocal, etc., but wanted to include the new impressions.

Loved it! You really nailed this one. I can hear either Clapton or ZZ Top playing this one.
Super chops man!
This is a keeper for sure!
Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up. Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
