I dig this. It has that feel. I'm not crazy about the hook the last 2 lines starting with 'UP DOWN DOWN UP..." don't think they flow with the rest.

A grittier vocal may be needed to really capture it imho.

Good luck!!

[irthlingz]

Thanks for the listen, Geo!

When you're talking about "flow" do you mean lyrically, musically or both?

[Paulie]

Sounds more like old country than old blues, especially with the fiddle and jaw harp. Blues is about attitude and blue notes in the singing and music.

[swdaze]

Lyrically.

[irthlingz]

Thank you for the input Paulie!

And for the clarification, Geo!

I'm not an expert on this style, but I think the lyrics are pretty good, and the harp works. I would recommend partnering with a vocalist and guitarist that can get a more authentic blues sound. This vocal and guitar sound more country to me.

Just one opinion,

Vince

[irthlingz]

Thank you, Vince. Yeah, I think it went country on us!

Starting over, different song for the same listing:
