Wonderful, smooth, classy! Reminds me of something I would hear on a crime series. Awesome guitar licks.

The guitar tone is quite nice as is the general phrasing of the guitar melody. The utilization of the organ backing (pad) track is very effective. The piece's mood and utilization of a minor key is intriguing and holds the listener through the entire track. I like the low volume guitar chords in the background. They offer a nice touch.

Nothing wrong with this. Great job.

Nice music, moody, not flashy but played well, good balance in the mix for the most part. Might be nice to add another section in a major key just for contrast.

This is a very well written and played instrumental. The guitar work is clean and expressive and the drums and other background instruments could be clearly heard. I could see this being used as background music for a TV show or film if you can make the right contacts. The production was excellent...it was mixed professionally and mastered well.

Very romantic piece. Nice guitar work

love it! This is a good solid tune, all the way

Great modern blues work. Beautiful guitar work.

Very nice. Well played and easy listening blues.

very tasteful guitar work. a gentle Memphis approach to a classic blues progression. has a solid Mark Knopfler/Dire Strains feel to it. Also reminiscent of one of my favorites: "If Loving You is Wrong". Cheers!

I DON'T THINK THIS IS DELTA BLUES--BUT!--it don't matter!--it is top notch playing!--great one to do LIVE!--cheers--nj.
