Hey Trev,

This is a really, really, really good tune.

You've got a wicked voice man.
Reminds me a little of Jethro Tull.

Great emotion in your voice and your playing.
I love the way you beat the hell out of that guitar too.

I think this is just a stellar song and performance.
It ain't pretty being easy.

Okay to Cover

This is real music, guys! Love it!

Hey thanks for the comments guys the acoustic thing is all very new to me as I've always been an electric player but I'm really enjoying it so I'll probs put up some more next week :)

Wonderful playing - full-bodied strumming and nice picking combined. Impressive! Vocal delivered with gusto. Looking forward to more powerhouse acoustic performances from you.

Yeah, I am digging this a lot.  Absolute fantastic song.  I say you are a natural acoustic songwriter, more please.  So frigging good.  You have a really good voice man, nothing to hide behind here, so much power.

Love it.

Like BB says, one guitar, one voice - really powerful. You're a natural at doing acoustic songs.

(And it makes me want to get my Jethro Tull albums out as well :))

   All that I need
Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

This is awesome! It really makes me think it would go well against a modern western type of movie. Great voice too!

Thanks for the feedback lads - this was the track that I was most unsure about as it was so different from the stuff I usually post and thats a really interesting idea about it being potentially a soundtrack for a film. Anyway thanks again for the boost  I'm going to try this out live at my buskers night this week :)

Goodness, another amazing song, I am getting blown away by the quality on this site. Incredible vocals here Trev, better than even your last track I was raving about. So up front and initimate, superb performance and very well recorded, all the nuances are there. And the acoustic is so full of emotiuon in its attack and intensity, all round a completely wonderful track. Bravo!

Cheers,

Nigel
