You had me at the first few notes! The mix is awesome! Nice and clean sounding. I especially love he tones of the guitars and the kick drum! The vox reminds me of Molly Hatchet.

Nice one Tony! I don't know why, but I kept thinking of The Heavy (Strike Back theme) while I was listening to this. Very slinky feel, and the groove is right in the pocket. I like the BGV placement, and everything else sounds great. I'd like to hear the lead vocal a little more up front, but that's just me.
 
Regards,

Jesse:  Thanks for the feedback and the listen.  That was Tom's idea about using the cord unplug at the end.  Haven't heard the Bryan Ferry reference before but Tom is very chameleon like with his vox so I hear different influences over different songs.
 
Wookiee:  Thanks for listening and the kind words, happy holidays to you as well!
 
Rim:  Thanks for taking the time to listen and for the great, specific feedback.  Tom apparently took this to heart as he posted a new version.  I still have to check that one out.  Thanks for lending us your great ears!
 
Reece:  Thanks for the kind comments and for listening.  Hope things are well with you.
 
James:  Thanks for giving this one a spin and for all your support past and present.  We'll soon have enough tunes for a new CD so you can be assured that you'll have this one to check out whenever the mood strikes.
 
Tom:  Thanks for listening and for your good crit and comments. Yep, definitely was going for the vox with heavy reverb although that can be tricky and not to everyone's taste.  In the past we have gotten comments about the vox being to dry.  Tom used a little heavier reverb on our tune, Back in your Cage and I loved it so I encouraged him to use more reverb on his vox.  Love the comment on the skanky groove.  I couldn't quite put my finger on a good descriptive word for it but skanky does seem to fit the bill, LOL!!
 
Stringjammer:  Thanks for the kind comments and for listening.  Danny Joe Brown, RIP, great vocalist.  I love hearing what other people hear in Tom's vocals.  Now if I could channel up some swampy guitar licks, maybe we could give that Hatchet vibe a whirl, LOL!!
 
Jude77:  Thanks man, very kind words and we appreciate the listen.  Hope all is well in your world.
 
Dan:  Thanks for checking us out and for the great comments.  Vox and bass are often times hard to hear.  I think that has something to do with the fact that Tom does both of those and the mixing too.  Preston usually asks for the bass to be more prominent and I like the vox up some.  Always a work in progress.

Brilliant stuff. Great job all the way. Everything was just great. Mix too imo. Sorry for not critiques but did not find any fault.

Liked that groove and the mix is very good -- can everything really well and it jells.  I didn't like the guitar lead -- the tone was good but it sounded like the guitarist was fumbling about a bit.  Not too focused.  Also, it didn't stand out in the mix in the beginning of the solo.  Other than that minor thing, it was good stuff :)

Yeah, I hear a bit of Brian ferry in this. You seem to be a natural at writing cool vibe tracks. No crits, sounds great.

Yeah, that was very cool, and the groove was very bad (in a good way of course).  
 
Loved the vibrato on the lead vocals, and I think the reverb suits it well in context.
