Hi Gruverider,
one might think that all bluesrock songs must have been sung and played before - not this one, man: I LOVE IT.
And what will I have to drink and smoke to get a voice like yours? (Who would care what the doctor said...) - just stunning !!!!!

Hello, Lawrence
Really nice groove!
As others say, you have the perfect voice for blues/rock!
Nice use of the guitars!
I agree with floyd.
The extra delay on the slide was a great touch - really brought it to life.
Needless to say, the vocal is top shelf.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

This is pretty darn good Lawrence!! Your vocal fits this so nicely! This is like something off of an early ZZ Top album (vocal really reminds of Billy Gibbons). Great work!! Thanks, Torrey Thank you Torrey!

Good old ZZ Top blues-rocknroll, is it really possible to get that guitar sound out of BIAB Excellent raspy vocals and superb kicking mix. Janne Janne, with a little help from GuitarRig 5. Thank you. Hi Gruverider,
one might think that all bluesrock songs must have been sung and played before - not this one, man: I LOVE IT.
And what will I have to drink and smoke to get a voice like yours? (Who would care what the doctor said...) - just stunning !!!!! Glad that you enjoyed it! A good place to start might be 20 years of whiskey and five years of vodka Lawrence

Lawrence,
This is a really, really fine listen. I love the groove, your writing and playing are as strong as always, your arranging is excellent (again 'as always') and your vocals are top notch (once again!). When it comes to making music that sounds like it's radio ready and radio friendly, there's few who can match you on the forum. Your works inspire me.
All the best,
Noel

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track
