Groovacious! &mdash 04/01/08 - 11:27:41 AM
Nice classic feel Steve. Perhaps a tad too long before the change-up....But very enjoyable!

If you plan to develop this some more, do keep me posted!

Be well!

Steve &mdash 04/02/08 - 01:54:45 PM
Nice bass lines. Really nice mix, clean an open.

My favorite is the ending. You could extend that out for a few minutes!

Upbeat, enjoyable!

Very nice &mdash 04/06/08 - 06:36:53 AM
esp the bass, very funky.
Very impressed esp since mostly first takes, it gives it a very 'live' feel.
Cool bass solo change at the end

nice ideas &mdash 04/06/08 - 06:37:40 AM
sort of reminds me of the riff on cocaine by eric clapton but more complex. good bass line. i've wanted to get an intro song for when i get my cd done as well. some nice ideas on this.

Infectious! &mdash 04/06/08 - 07:48:17 AM
That bass tone is just smooth and killer. loving it.
and the way you play the tele is a great match for it.
it has that infectious quality as "low-ride-er" without sounding like it.
great intro tune with lots of possibilities.

Thanks

Enjoy how this starts out &mdash 05/27/08 - 08:45:35 PM
like the bass and the arpeg'd electric guitar on the high tone side.

Infectious, nice chord additions later. Almost has a Booker T and the MG's sound here.
Lots of nice quick running bass lines as well.
Nice going
Thanks for sharing the tune with us MJer's

thanks &mdash 05/30/08 - 04:11:43 AM
Ive started working on this tune again. Im going to shorten the the 1st part. maybe even sing on it from time to time...thanks for the stop by!!!!

cool grove &mdash 06/14/08 - 10:38:00 PM
this was cooking man
I love the whole bass line thing
when the guitar plays the riff with the bass it cranks up a notch / way cool
i think i hear a chorus of ooo's and ahhhh's mostly femal vocals...rounding out the last half somehow and climaxing into the bass mode ending with some dissonant vocal thing
i'm going off here
love the tune

And first takes are my most favorite kind of music as well. I do lots of my ambient live ones all firt takes usualy also.
I love this one too Steve
I did comment last time. But the page sometimes has problems loading.
It drives me mad as well :) it happens lots of times on other artist song pages too. Well done.

Peace Dee.
