Hi peeps,
Many thanks to all who took the time etc....some great comments that stoked the ego up :-)
Loved the tone of that acoustic Alan @montydog and your vocals just fit this style so well and there are some nice contrasting rhythms going on there as well. Oh, and that reverb drenched guitar solo really is the business 
Great stuff
@pompeyjazz Thanks for that. The solo is played on my dobro - I can't play lead electric guitar to save my life!.
Great Track Alan,
Smooth vocals as always and a great USA feel,
Only thing I can mention is I would have mixed the vocals back a bit and EQ them through, Track seemed a little quite against the vocals, But that is just my style and not yours mate, And a lot of peeps say mine are too quiet......It a pesonal style.
Great tune
@Cawproductions Thanks for taking the time and for your advice on mixing the vocals. Glad you liked the tune.
very solid Alan, it's not particularly catchy but it is a good song.
Hi Geoff. I'll take solid.
Alan,
Sounds great. Lovely the little details, like the drum fills, banjo, organ and slide steel guitar solo. For once I wasn’t focused by your words or smooth vocals. That’s not an criticism just I was engulfed in the soundscape. Going to have another listen.
I think you’re taking your production and arrangement up another level.
Thanks for sharing
:-) neil
@Neil C Really pleased that you liked the soundscape and production so much - see how much I've learnt from the likes of you!
@montydog
Hi Alan, this is another song I'm sure I've heard and reviewed! I'm losing it in the lockdown 
. Great acoustic sound and your trademark silky vocals. Lyrics up to you normal high standard. Love the slide guitar and organ too.
Great song!
Nice one!
Cheers
Jamie
@Jamie - Thanks for the kind words, Jamie. Glad you liked the dobro solo - it took a few takes to get right. If some of my outtakes ever fell into the hands of the wrong person, I'd be very blackmailable.
I've always really enjoyed your voice. Very soothing. I'd like to hire you to always give me bad news.
@dinnerwithgreedo - Haha - very funny. My voice is not my creation - I just inherited it!
Lovely acoustic guitar and the solo is mega..the lyrics are mega, the vocals are mega..the atmosphere of the song is mega...
so it's all mega then..great song .. 
@shadowfax Thanks for the mega review.
A lovely song. The holy water line is fabulous.
"You will never know
How close you came
To winning the game"
Great message that came over so well.
Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated as ever.
@montydog
Yo Alan,a sweet,strong from you. This has a great sense of poignancy,aided no doubt by the reflective tone of the lyrics.
I dig the warm,clear sound on that acoustic and as always it's the tasteful licks and additions that are the icing on the cake of your compositions. The dobro is to die for.
@Skub Thank you Davy. Really pleased you liked the dobro - it's the only instrument I'm half decent at.
Production sounds fab...and all the pieces fit together so well and exude an air of quiet confidence.
I thought the drums had a lovely punch to them that worked really well. The acoustic guitar sounded lovely too and is really tightly played.
Sweet as a nut. Mission (highly) accomplished.
@PaulAds Thank you Paul - means a lot coming from someone of your talents.
@montydog - superb work, It just ocurred to me that you and @Paulski would sound great in a song.
You are so good at this, a really accomplished song, has a lot of variation, which maintians interest, and that voice...suits the genre perfectly, great prod too, LVox just right in the mix, nice and confidently proud.
great work
@cowparsleyman Lovely comments and an interesting idea of a collab with Paul C....
This is exactly my type of theme. My favorite part of the song is the word "Minnesota". Probably because I live there. Your usual gorgeous mellow sound and I especially like the writing on this one.
@CaliaMoko "Minessota" - made it into the song because it rhymes with "Carolina". I don't think it's known for it's rich earth (unless you know better)! Thanks for the review and for liking the song.
Like the subject, the lyrics, really nice song
@Melusine2 Merci beaucoup!
Nice song, @montydog - enjoyed it very much. Lyrics are good too - especially the chorus.
@Sterix Glad you enjoyed it. That is the general idea :-)
