I think this would be a worthy addition to your new album. The stellar bridge and guitar solo is enough to land a spot on the set list! Well done on this bluesy number ( love the harp work).

Spaced is a cool title for this little beauty. After listening, I am enjoyably spaced out. That was fun!

Nice, high energy! LOVE it!
Love the tune! How's it going? Long time, no hear. My kids immediately popped in the room and started dancing to this track. That's a testament to a good tune if I ever saw one! Awesome.
Great song! I heard the Procol Harum influence, and also a hint of Jack Bruce in the vocal. I really loved the melodic guitar solo and the arrangement. Now I need to go click Play again.....
I came here to listen to the song because it's one of my faves here on Mixpo....not to review it. To my surprise, I haven't reviewed it...what's wrong with this?
First, the chord progressions against the vocal line absolutely kills me..the chorus is just dynamite, and so are the lyrics.
Second, the emotive feeling in this song.
Third, the arrangement and playing so well suits this songwriting gem. It just plain works so well, dripping with the musicality that IS Self Tort.
Fourth, the soulful vocal performance.
You hit all the buttons on this one Brian. Sheer pleasure to listen to. You capture the magic big time. ~Blake
Great production Brian! Love the organ, and your usual outstanding vocals carry this through. Perfect lead guitar tone and pace around 3:30ish as well...as I've said before...perfectly put together!
Rob
Love the organ in this one - really adds passion to the song. Guitar is calm at sea - just right for this tunes atmosphere. And that minor chord... a tear jerker ; )) Well done Brian - beautiful piece!
Cheers, Bob
This is one great sounding track Brian... from the opening organ and first few vocal phases I was drawn in. Your genuine soul qualities drip from your voice... wonderful supporting sound & some very nice abstract lyrics at wotk in this one too... for example:
Or go trawling through the low dives
Picking up the high fives
Trying to find some drive
A will to survivie
What tricks my mad mind plays
You have a wonderful musical character my friend! very Nice.... Henry
Well as ever Brian,whenever I ever listen to your music,I end up thinking about all kinds of things....
Jim's review,where he said you should be a millionaire...
You know,that is so true.
It's not BS,or fluffy reviewing,or any of those other forum terms.
It's just one man sitting alone with a song and wondering WHY he is listening to it on an omd.
When I think about all th greats like Van Morrison etcetera...
I imagine him standing there,the way he does,and just delivering this song in the way you have here...
All would proclaim it as another classic in a long line of classics.
So,with a little more thought,you come to understand that inside a musican is a musican.
He may strive for the bright lights and big money,but when that doesn't happen,there is where you seperate the muscians from the fortune hunter.
Not much reward,just what he can sell,just the odd kind word along the way.
But as you listen to aong like this,you realise this guy ain't doing it for any of those things,he's doing i because it is as natural to him as breathing.
You are that good mate,I have no reason to say it other than to honestly mean it.
Does it matter what I or anyone else says.....?
Interesting thought...
I have a feeling the music would roll no matter what,that it is beyond the hit and run review culture of OMD's.
It's being set down in time,as part of man's life upon the earth.
When you look back and see what you have forged across the years,it must feel good inside.
Yes,you are that good.
Nigel.
You are on a major roll, my friend! This is yet another in a series of extremely well-written tunes that you've captured "on record" for the world to share. It's evident that a lot of care has gone into these lyrics, both in the sound and the sense of things. Of course, the performance is first rate, as it always is with your work. Congrats!
Real nice piece here brian, you have a real good vocal going on here, very pleasin to the ear, nice job my friend, and of course your guitar is mighty fine. Catch you on the flip side my Ausie Bud. The RatMan!
The first organ tone made me sit still. Brian, I think I've told you that I'm a fan of Gary Brooker, the certain touch of melancholy and strength in his works as the ones with Procol Harum. You're keeping that spirit with your ballads in the modern age, with your own identity, your details and edges, but with the same master skills and love and passion. Thank you.
I just read your info for this one Brian, and yes, I can sure hear the Procol Harum sound in this one...I`m so pleased to have lived through the hey day of this kind of music...You`ve composed a wonderful song with this one, such a pleasure....A lovely listen, thanks..xx
Peace n love mags xx
To have this much talent ...just doesn't seem fair.!! The sound and performance on the keys is superb !!! The chord progression you created flows with intrique and interest. Throw in the famous Self Tort vocals and the ear for production and (Damn' I forgot you play the guitar with ???? tasteful excellence} no wonder your music is OUTSTANDING......A lawyer too ....SWEET !!
cheers mate,
Larry T.*****
Love the strong gritty vocals! well crafted composition with interesting chordal turns! tasty touches of guitar w/great classic tones..... excellent listen!
Great song Brian! Love the vocals and keys, you have a great delivery in your music. thanks for sharing. KB
what a great tune, love the Organ sound all my fav style from the 70`s in this track, wonderful work. love it
I get the PH feel, but this is all you for sure. Excellent ballad that evokes a strong control over the listener. This one got my attention and wouldn't let go. Love it!
Nice work on this, liked the Procal Harum feel to the keys. Very emotive lyrics, well delivered. Enjoyed this one
Brian; your vocal delivery between 2:29 and to 2:40 is so damn elegant and filled with emotive energy - really really cool.
Do you mind sending me the lyrics?? Just wanna listen to the song from the an angle of knowing what you are singing.
Thanks for sharing
Patrick
Great melody Brian. Th eproduction is top notch and the instrumentation is the high standard you've always performed. Great work to all.
Mike K.
Great ballad Brian! Both Rob and Bri-an mentioned PH and I agree but this song is definitely all you with your unique style. The organ sounds good and it's a well written song and lyric!
Farrell
Hey Mr B...i remember hearing this toon on Nexus....and the comments i made on it then.(cause you were asking) but it was for the mix at the time....
I only go for the content as i cannot hear past the realm of 24kbps ( unless it was d/l)
I love the unusual placement of lyrics in the structure...eg: "son of john"..amist the very classic progressive chords (procal harum feel..yup, )then onto the great hook of the chorus (which for me was a ian hunter-mott the hoople) feel.. your influences are coming out very strong in this composition, i enjoy hearing what you create! as always, the lyrics are well written and delivered with a stlye that is yours alone. excellent work.
BRIAN!!! The organ is KILLER!!!......you haved pegged the feel and sound of early Procal Harum. WHAT a BEAUTIFUL JOB!!! Man, you are the new Gary Brooker........SUPER JOB!!If there's a DL available....I'll be there
Rob
Rob
Another top level performance from you...beautiful classic rock sound and interesting sollutions in chords and arrangement!!!
I like your guitar lead too.Good work!!!
