I was REALLY surprised to be forwarded on this one becuase my stuff isn't "blues"...however ONE of my songs is and the reviewer (#27) felt that it was close to Bonnie Raitt and since she is referenced in the listing sent the song on. This is one of my favorites in all the songs I've written. I just love the "grab a glass of wine and cry your heart out feel" LOL..what do you guys think?Here's the listing:S080212BLA wide range of great-sounding MODERN ELECTRIC BLUES-ROCK SONGS & INSTRUMENTALS in the range of Bonnie Raitt, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Jonny Lang, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Eric Clapton, etc. are sought by a West Coast-based Music Publisher who typically supplies music to companies such as Muzak (tracks for retail shops, restaurants, malls, etc.). He's been expanding his repertoire and wants to find great material for TV projects, as he has numerous contacts in that world as well. Male or female vocals are OK. He's asked us to be extra selective in what we forward - he wants quality over quantity - so your vocal and instrumental performances must be excellent. No profanity or uncleared samples. He offers numerous types of publishing deals. Broadcast quality needed [excellent home recordings are OK]. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI and must be received no later than Feb. 12, 2008. TAXI # S080212BLAnd the song:"In My Dreams"

Yes I got a return. A very nice critique but they felt my song was more singer/songwriter than electric blues. In retrospect I agree but I thought for sure I could slip it through.......LOL on me, right?
