Seriously, Freddy, you should try your hand at a Tom Petty cover. Or at least one of the 60's classics The Heartbreakers would have covered. But assuming you've no interest in covers (no need, your originals are great) I'd still suggest giving Jace Everett a listen for inspiration. His genre is hard to categorize but I'd call it progressive rockabilly. Whatever you call it, it's what came to my mind as I was listening to your stuff.
 
I especially enjoyed "It Ain't Right".
 
Oh, and this new one's pretty good, too!

Hi Wayfarer.  Thanks for listening and for the kind words.  A long time ago, in a place not so far away, I was in a band.  The guys in the band wanted me to play bass because no one wanted to play it.  I didn't want to either but I agreed.  What they didn't know is that I didn't know diddly-squat about playing bass.  I (justifiably) didn't last long in the band.  So --- your comments about the bass are much appreciated!!! 
 
Thanks for listening and your suggestions Dave.  I appreciate you comments about covering a Petty song or two.  I very much like some of his songs.  I don't know if I could handle them but I may just give one a try.  I have recorded a couple of covers (e.g., Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Everly Brothers, Buffalo Springfield, The Nightcrawlers ---oops, that's more than a couple) but I have not posted them.  I guess I am too timid about copyright and performance infringement.  Thanks also for turning me on to Jace Everett.  I don't know how you would classify his stuff either but I think that you are close with progressive rockabilly.  He has an interesting style and I love that baritone voice!

Cool stuff, Freddy.   It's got a great retro vibe (yeah, I hear a little Elvis influence) but with a big and open modern mix.  Sounds really good.   
 
I do wonder though what the vocal would sound like with just a little slap-back delay riding underneath.  
 

Mr Freddy, Enjoyed hearing this one very much! Always like the swing bluesy boogie woogie sounds. 
 
Just a suggestion, change the song where you are singing about grabbing a bottle and it causing you to meet with the devil, and sing it where you sound mean as H.E. Double L  at times while telling the story. When I say mean, I mean "Double Characters and emotions". Not sure if I said that right. 
 
Just a thought and suggestion, no offense meant. LOL, I'm sorry I hear things different sometimes I guess than others. 
 
I enjoyed hearing it just like it is, the mix sounded great!

Freddy J, I'm listening, and I say to myself, "Tom Pettyish"  Then I read some of the other comments and see that others thought the same.  HA!  Nice guitar work.  I like your originals, keep it coming!
