'TuneMonger'...

The title of your song suggested that I was about to listen to some kind of blistering, wailing rock number celebrating the smell of engine oil and the sound of screeching tires and the roar of the crowd with some high-octane lyrics heating up the mix.

And then, my ears got treated to a gentle ballad that recounted with impressionistic sensitivity the nostalgic, remembered pleasures of drag racing in what appears to have been a small, rural community setting. Your singing had that suspended-in-time feel that magnified a powerful sense of recollection of past events.

It's a finely-crafted and felt song in all ways.
