Started out liking it, but the more Bill plays it the more "forced" it seems.
Whatever. Some music just overstays its welcome.
Me too! |

I love your take, fredriley. I agree. This is good stuff. Could NOT find cut-and-pasteable lyrics for this song, but it doesn't matter. I love the song, and I guess I could dance to it.  |

I was sure that this was SNZ, who I think are overrated, but this is cooler - as long as I don't have to hear it too often. |

Brozman is a virtuoso of the guitar way before the Zippers came along, never got any airplay which is kinda understandable, he wasn't pop 40 lol and that by no means is his best stuff

Apart from the 'look at me, look at me" approach to guitar playing, the 'I wanna be a singer' vocals there ain't much there.. lots of smoke, no fire.... Muddy Waters was fire... I don't love this. It's got no soul.

Sprited and sharp; like a karate master performing kata...this is good. Maybe not for everyone, but it is good music.
