It is all about "Ice Cream"..... well, sorta

Funny, love it!

I love the guitars in this. Nice Cover

Escellent guitar and vocal work

The vocals are very good. The guitar playing is really good. The really seems to be into it!!! So was I!! This is a very good performance!

Engaging voice
Had the 'audience 'in the palm of your hand!

nice interpretation, strong vocal, guitar accompaniment is a bit boring

Love the concept and we love Ice Cream so you captured our attention for sure- love the old sounding record crackle very cool....

Real blues no doubt.

Nice solo acoustic job. Sounds like this was a good concert to be at. Singer/guitarist nails is for an obviously appreciative audience. Love the irreverent rap in the solo part.

Nice playing!

Great live performance...I could tell the crowd was into it...very original...it's hard to come up with something new in this genre but this was entertaining...great concert song...creative lyric...one man band...loved it...bare bones blues...

Very nice guitar introduction, it had a good flow and great guitar work. I like the Louis Armstrong kind of vibe. It reminded me of some of the blues in the 50's and 60's. You have a nice voice for the blues. I liked that you made a song about the ice cream man, we all loved him as a kid. A fun song.It made me smile.

Nice and live !!, The punters loved it and so did I, well done mate,,,not quite sure how you recorded this, sounds like a record ??

This tongue-in-cheek Ice Cream Man sings a cynical blues backed by a well-picked acoustic guitar.

Vocal is by far the best part of this. Pure Blues voice. Well sung.

great vocals on this blues track. nice style good tune. with a little humour

Nicely done!!!
Great Vocals!!!
