Thanks much for the input Everett and Pete.

I like those acts that have that canvas and then can have something unique.

I have looked at acts like Golden Earring as one of those acts.

Going from the sixties beat scene to hard rock and churning out something unique like "Radar Love" and "Twilight Zone".
Maybe known only for 2 major hits, but what they did built up into an influence that bands that cover them can never quite duplicate.

And getting into a lot of the early vocal and blue eyed soul groups more recently, I can hear their influence all over the rock medium.

Those Gods definately did'nt spring into being overnite.

For me though, I would like to do something fresh and at the same time not go overboard.
I used to like copping the few grab bags of riffs I knew and turn songs inside and out to create.
I find myself going back and am going to practice more like that.
I guess anyone interested in songwriting wants to do something special, or at least be unique in some way.

I guess it's a matter of growing and maturity.

Laying that messy graffiti on the canvas and see where it can lead.

Thank you much all!

Matt
