Pretty cool!
This ROCKS!!! It totally reminds me of a Dio tune, with an Yngwie Malmseen/Randy Rhoads type of riff. Very 80's, but VERY COOL!! Awesome vocals & guitar playing!!!!
This song really does a good job at giving the feeling of an Anne Rice novel. I love it, even if it is a bit retro!
This is my least favorite on this CD, but it still is a good tune. I just think it feels a bit un-finished, in some ways. The idea is solid, but the guitar tone kind of messes the whole groove up. The melody is pretty solid,though.
This is a pretty interesting tune. The mandolin adds a twist. It might be a bit non-commercial for these days, but I love it anyway. Where is the record company when you need it to sign a great songwriter/artist?
