    I wish "pop" would always sound like this  "pop" to me is like Britney crap etc - this is way cooler! Great whistle solo, too. The production sounds a bit muddy, lo-fi, but with this song, even this fits. I like this!

    Nice job on this, Lee.  It's good to have fun with a song, which is what this recording conveys.  Keep em rolling.

    All the best,

    Hey Lee
    Cool tune!  I really like the raw/live sounding mix.  This really has a early R.E.M. vibe.  I think it the tone of the electric guitar and the way the drums sit in the mix.  KUDOS!

    @Drumstixkev..."early REM vibe"...to me, that is seriously high praise indeed!  A seminal band for me.  THANK YOU so much for that comparison!  You rock!

    I really liked this, your vocalist reminds me of Mick Jagger from the stones had he joined the Doors rather than Jim Morrison. LOL, Sorry I know that's not a good comparative explanation, I mean that as a compliment and hope you don't take it any other way. I apologize if it sound insulting in anyway, those two singers happen to be 2 of my favorites of all time. I guess I'm trying to say very unique. Sounded great!!

    @Serious _Noize   no need to apologize for a Jagger / Morrison comparison!  The vocalist is yours truly, I'm kind of a one man show, I play most of the instruments except for bass on this track, though I work with a producer who is indespensible.  Thanks for listening and the kind words, very much appreciated!

    I love this one! The vocals (and whistling) are great but the instrumentation is absoflippinlutely terrific.  It reminds me of some of the wonderful local garage bands that used to play around the Tampa Bay area in the 1960's and also of some of the new wave/punk bands that used to play at the Buffalo Roadhouse (Tampa) in the late '70's.
    Great stuff.

    It's not pop - thank God. I hear a bit of Velvet Underground. This is such a cool tune Lee. I do think the mix sounds a bit "flat" - that's the best I can describe what I'm hearing.
     
    I love this tune Lee - well done.

    @Mark - Thanks so much! To my ears it's a pop song .  And yeah, the mix isn't ready yet, I am working on a large batch of songs, so final mixing and mastering is to come.
     
    thanks again man, really appreciate the kind words

    It has a very compelling vibe.  I would like the hear the vocals up front more.

    Yes, this is not pop, but maybe more advent type rock than anything. Does have a more live sound than mixed and mastered to it but it is a cool vibe. The whistling bites you right in the ear, and that all right when your out to have some fun with a song. A bit different, but sounds good at my end of the spectrum.
