    This is legitimately one of the best Covers I’ve ever heard.
    Every aspect of this is perfect.
    Everything is heavy, but still Soulful and Melodic…
    The drums, the vocals, the lead, the bass…
    These guys just play so damn well together.
    The way the vocals and the lead are supported by the Bass-player keeping the perfect pulse, while the Drummer is keeping the perfect groove-while also playing tasteful, satisfying fills…
    What else can I say - These guys are just really fuckin good.

    You knocked my socks off. As an old dude, that flew a freak flag, I know you get it. Sorta like Stevie Ray met Stills there. I dig it. Great playing and singing. You have the curse. You will look outside the box for answers in music and life. Play on Youngblood!

      @donkeninitz4590 4 года назад +2

      Yeah, great call: Stills meets SRV. I'm ancient too, so Stills was one of my guitar heroes back in the day. Few people these days realize the esteem he was once held in as a guitar player. In those old Playboy music polls he used to be ranked right up there with Clapton in the blues and rock categories, and higher in acoustic. Its not that us oldies don't still hold him in high esteem, but rather that he's faded from view among younger guys.

    Davy messaged me on Facebook years ago around the time his first album came out he gave me some great advice. Was 15 when I discovered him in guitar world. And he became my guitar Idol..my playing always has a little hint of Davy Knowles in it. One of the few guys with their own truly unique sound.
