Kenny,
This is the way Good Easy Southern Rock is written!!.. Has the flavor of Neil Young at his peak - or BETTER than than! Love it.
Cool opening. Good band. Nice solo...
Another good vocal (the highs could be rolled off a bit. It's a little "crispy"). Cool BGVs.
"Cooks fried chicken And good cornbread That you’ll crave for the rest of your life"
Oh, yeah.
Worth many listens...

Kenny, I agree with Floyd about the Neil Young comparison! The melody in the chorus is hit making material IMHO!! This one is without a doubt my favorite of anything I've heard of yours!! Thanks, Torrey

Kenny, You had me singing along on the chorus - love the rolling beat and that ( phased?) baritone guitar. I like the description of this girl -she sounds as cool as your song!

Another nice one Kenny... Good lyrics... I really liked the line... Cooks fried chicken And good cornbread That you’ll crave for the rest of your life A nicely penned line to which "Southern" folk can relate. I enjoyed this one!

Nice one..chorus is Brilliant, lyrics strong write, vocals are strong clear and suit this genre to a T.
I agree with Floyd on the brightness, and I found it a bit busy instrument wise.
Your voice would have been more prominent with less going on, as you have a strong clear vocal so why bury it.
This is a constructive critique and I hope you take it as that.
Enjoyed this.
Thanks

What a tune! I really liked it - I enjoyed the groove, and it gave me a nice 90's rock vibe. Your vocals are definitely a standout and I thought there was some awesome progression. Loved the hook too. Nicely done - thanks for sharing

Kenny, Another tasteful, both metaphorically and literally tune. Lyrics and production are excellent! Organ was a very good choice. Very cool guitar solo!
Thank you for sharing!

They are among the best of the breed. And this is among the best songs I've heard anywhere in quite a while.

fj Thanks Floyd, I never thought of Neil Young but Southern Girl/Southern Man... i think the lyrics are a little corny and the vocal is so so the vocal mix sounds good to me which says that I'm not hearing what you do and now Beatmaster too this is a problem that I've repeated too many times here I'm gonna give some serious thought to just stopping.

Hey Jim, we do love that southern cooking don't we? cornbread is so personal, everybody makes it a little different love me some with honey in the mix, or cracklins, or jalapeños. thanks for the kind words

Thanks Hey Beatmaster, Thanks for the listen and kind words, not offended but noooooooo!!! let me indulge by piling on the tracks, I usually do sparse arrangements I want this to sound like a train comin' thru there are some dynamics with things dropping in and out I noticed the Soundcloud visual looks almost maxed out all thru, maybe it normalized (whut) when it also messed up my lead vocal! thank you for the compliments
