Beat
Love the beat. I hear the spaces, but I also like this version, because is lets your understated guitar licks stand out.

Thanks

Oh so mellow man,
make me want to grab a cold one and just chill for a while. Nice chord progression. love the distinctive feel of the various guitar parts. This is a groove just beggin to be finished up with a little horn and organ worn and a really great vocal over the top.

Great piece of classic blues work here Rob

nice
mellow and laid back....sounds like liquor....or it sounds like lick her....I can't decide which yet....nice guitar tone....reminds me a bit of a Roland Jazz Chorus sound....now I know you got chops....so add some leads.....after mucho beero....of course....kinda makes me feel like it's a rainy day....which is great.....I can tell when it comes to your production that there is NO COMPROMISE....lol....sweet tune and take care.....

peace

can't wait to hear this new project of yours !
you take care as well.

Thank you for your commnt
This sounds very good! Don't listen to blues very often anymore, but did listen to Gary Moore a long time ago and this reminds me of that music.

Very nice blues man!
Three man band in a smokey dive workin on their chops...Oooooh! Nice change up about 1/3rd of the way in...

I agree with the Vicar and davisamerica: add some vocals post-haste, and perhaps a tad more soloing on that git-fiddle. You've really stepped in something good here!

Be well!

MMmmmmmmm....
....not enough 'o's in the word 'smooooth' to do this one justice. The lights are low and the bar is quiet, and the band is getting warmed up before the real drinking starts. The waitress brings another cold one and tells me the band just got in a few hours ago. She thinks they're pretty good. I concur.

Damn, you do some sweet stuff with that guitar! I'll send a round to the band when they break... they've earned it.

nice and clean
I like the reoccurring theme played by the guitar between the verses. The track is very nice and clean otherwise. Many possibillities for a great end result with the right additions.

hi,
this is nice work.
is that possible to get the garage band file, I'd really like to use it as a backing track.
