Kick ass David. You can tell what the others thinkn' on this one. It all
fits so well. And of course your mixing and arranging is second to
none. Nice touch at the end.-JAC

What this needs... &mdash 10/16/05 - 10:01:36 PM
is heavy, mind-blowing fuzz bass. Other than that, a real winner.

I can't comment on rock too well, but this kept me entertained nicely
while being constructive with my time on MJ Chat.

...to listen to this! I'm not much on commenting on the Rock genre, but
this is good stuff as far as I can tell ;)

Excellent work on matching the guitar grooves. Fun to listen to and well
done!!

Love the guitars and the general groove &mdash 10/17/05 - 04:57:07 PM
Love the guitars and the general groove - could take a big vocal really well (say, the guy from AC/DC). You sure can play those git samples!!! My only criticism (a very small one) would be that the bass could come up in the mix - but maybe thats just the speakers I'm using at the moment. Great drumming!

Yes, it probably could use more bass. I'll definitely consider that, thanks for
your input! Glad you like this tune, and my song art, Neil, thanks for
stopping by!

Very cool &mdash 10/17/05 - 08:22:50 PM
This is another cool hitting groove that had nice blues, almost zeppish, and rockabilly sounding licks that it kept me interested. I reallly dig your bass lines dude!

off the wall beat crazy like. Dig the way it rocks and keeps me on the edge. Keep it on the edge...very original. Can't predict where it's going. Nice guitar sounds...you know with the delays and all. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome guitar rock! &mdash 10/18/05 - 03:25:14 PM
Really great track, pv! A total knockout!

The horns at the end are a nice touch -- nice and subtle, giving just the right support and fill for the end.

My comments &mdash 10/18/05 - 04:15:41 PM
I don't know what happened to them, but I did attempt to post them
yesterday...

What I said was:

That guitar, it can't be any good after this one...

Your hands, Perc, they shouldn't be able to feel any more...

What ever was in close proximity to the makings of this, toss it...

This one is HOT!!! and forever, cook'n...

THANK YOU &mdash 10/19/05 - 12:51:22 PM
to all of you who have stopped in for a listen and commented. It's always great working with Steve on guitar, and I think his playing here is really superlative. I'm very happy with the responses I've gotten with this song; the fans and downloads tell me that I'm getting better at this making music thing. I appreciate the suggestions that I'm getting from y'all, here and in other songs. It's that advice that helps me learn how to connect with you via my music.

Steve and I have been jamming together, on and off, since 1990. As a drummer, I especially appreciate his excellent timing and very groovy playing. In addition, most of what I know about music theory was imparted by Steve; he really knows his stuff. Though we have somehow never managed to be in the same band, we've enjoyed jamming and always planned to make some recordings together. Now, 15 years later, I'm really pleased to actually be doing this! He's giving me a lot of material to work with, and you will here more Steve guitar here in the future.

Though I have a couple of drumsets, I have no recording gear. The drums you hear in this tune--and in all of my songs--are samples and loops. Most of them come from Drums On Demand, but also from many other sources. Even though the drums are 'fake', I do put great care into trying to make sure they are just right for the music, and I hope that shows.

Thank you again, all of you.

--David

nice rocker PV &mdash 10/20/05 - 10:52:02 AM
and a nice nod to the GOOMBA on guitar....there must be something in
the pasta....

I like to hear more of the horns at the end...a great contrast to the
electricity that comes before...

great job there!!!!

High Flying Funky Tune &mdash 10/22/05 - 07:11:37 AM
What's not to like? Very tasty work on the guitar, tight drums, excellent
mix and production. Nice touch with the horns at the end. Has a very Jeff
Beck-ish kind of feel, from his fusion period. Great job. Downloaded.

High Flying Funky Tune &mdash 10/24/05 - 09:21:57 PM
Steve would love the Beck comparison, easily his favorite guitarist.
Thanks for commenting Aqui, I'm glad you like this one.

Reminded me of Steve Morse Band from awhile ago. Great production
and hardcore guitar chops. Don't worry about the drums...you did a great
of choosing and chopping and the groove is dead on. Great work, Dude.
