Great funkin' fun, Michael! Lots going on here - instruments that all want to add to the fun. Great guitars, as always. This sounds like a Big Band, that invited a couple of heavy guitairists to join in. Funky for sure! :)

Dig those vocals and that bass is big and bad! A simmering pot of rhythmic stew. what a drum track. Awesome guitar work!

Oh yeah! I'm feeling this one!!! Great groove and the changes are out of this world. Oh, one of the highlights for me are those awesome horn lines lingering in the mix. Killer stuff. Great mix+production. Love the drum ending. NICE!!!

Really creative tune here Mike...love the wah and that synthy vocal...all to a groove that you would have to tape your foot to the rug not to have it tappin'. The whole ride is just wild and crazy...with a perfect ending! You are a man of many, many hats!
