Hi all.
I wrote this song when I was 17, and recorded it today. At the time I wrote it I hardly listened to anything but Blues music. My main influences were Colin James, Gary Moore and Jeff Healey. I've gotten back into Blues recently which is what encouraged me to finally record this song after 16 years . Hope you enjoy it, and please remember, all comments, whether good or bad, are very much appreciated.
Cheers
Craig

Top stuff Pidgeman... This is my kinda thing!

Nice crunch blues rock sound on the guitars and the singers got a great voice for this music. Guitar solos where well constructed, tasteful and fit well with the music.

My only slight criticisms are that the vocals maybe need to be mixed a bit better..... They didn't sit in the track as well as they could and a touch of wider, more pronounced vibrato on the string bends on the guitar solo (s) would give it that extra bit of gravitas and authenticity.

All in all it's a great piece of work and I enjoyed listening to it.

Sent you an add on Myspzzzzz

i'd say maybe add more vocs to back up the chorus, also turn the bass up a bit, sounding good gtr wise though, and the vocs are coming thru ok to my ears.
