Sorry for the slow reply every, I've been out of town for a couple of days.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to listen and reply! That means a lot!
Tom Deering, Thank you for taking the time to listen and reply. Daryl did the mix, so that would be up to him. LOL, I am without a doubt no mix master.
Bjorn, Thank you for the kind compliments and taking the time to listen and reply. I played all of this on a Epiphone Les Paul Special II. I like it, it has a small neck ratio and it's pretty good for rock. Thanks again.
Daniel, Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment! I'm glad you liked it. I don't listen to the radio anymore and I don't get on social media sites because everything is all propaganda and negative stuff. I wrote this song a long time ago about life, it's easy to dwell on the negative things if you don't pay attention and lose sight of what matters the most, and that is the gift you have been given by being alive and having a choice. That's what Traveling down the road about, and I hope it's a positive message to anyone who listens. Thanks again.
Jamesg1213, Thanks! It really inspires me to hear all these positive vibes on the comments like yours. I quite playing music altogether for many years, 20 or so, even though I'm no pro or nothing like that, but the reason I quite is the heyday of hair metal and everyone wanted to make music as some kinda rip it up contest. But for me it's always been about the song, because expression with a song is an art itself, in my opinion anyway and hearing a song is like a painting with sound. LOL CRAzY TALK EH? But I'm sure, all us players are crazy I guess, in a good way. Thanks again!
Philz, Thank man! You've got some great tunes and I am sorry I haven't replied to your tunes and everyone else's on here at times, I'm just busy and sometimes listening is all I can do. Thank you for taking the time to listen and reply. I really like the encouragement that I have seen lately on the forums. I don't view music as a contest, or that is who can play the fastest or loudest or scream the highest or anything like that. I'd rather just write songs and express my feelings the best I can. Thank again!
Beagle/Reece, THANK YOU!!! I've been a fan of your vocals and music for a while!!! Thanks man for taking the time to listen and reply!!! I am not really a hard rock guitarist although I can play that stuff sometimes, the type of songs I write are like this one, kinda Bryan Adams style and John Mellancamp type of stuff, more pop and Hard rock. Although I try either way. Thanks again!
Wookie, Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment, Daryl did the mix, and I AM GLAD OF THAT!!! I am too impatient to mix things, so I am glad he handled all that, it made things a lot easier and turned out better no doubt. Thanks again!
Daryl, THANK YOU!!!! It turned out better than I could have ever imagined no doubt about that!!! Anytime you want to work on anything collaboration or need guitars just let me know and I'll try!!! Thanks man!!!!
Thank you all!!!
I really had a whole lot of fun working with Daryl on this tune, more fun than I can remember playing music for a long while, it was a ton of fun working with someone like Daryl who took the time to actually listen to what I was doing and had to say.
Thanks everyone!!!
