here's anudder! http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12430909Livin' Hell aint seen the sunshine since she's been gone i feel my world closin' in can't break away from this pain that's so strong don't know when it's gonna end i run in circles here in the darkness i wonder what's in store for me i was fooled by a love so heartless even my soul can't break free she got me under her spell,it's a livin' hell i hear the others before me as they cry locked away in solitude i can see that no matter how hard we try we're just prisoners of the blues guess i'll die from this broken old heart while she preys upon another one of so many that you can't tell apart who'd do it again all over she got me under her spell,it's a livin' hell

Hi Mike,
Sounds like you channeled Bob Dylan from around 1966 with your vocal phrasing. Sounds good. You're getting better at BIAB I see. Good for you.

howdy Mike. Thought you were doing your best Dylan as well. Like the feel of this and the way it sounds.

You spell this one out well, sometimes a woman can bewitch you into the prison of her soul, where there are no doors nor windows, just the graffiti of words left unsaid. ~~Nicely done Micheal. ~~Matt

Michael,
This is so friggin cool. Love the solo! (Is that YOU?)
Awesome !
I hear a little "Stones" rhythm/riff in there and a long forgotten "Tommy Bolin" on guitar.
Nice, tight, good lyrics, rockin tune, brother.
Mike.

you've got a dylan-esque vocal delivery in this song! sounds kinda like a combination of dylan and cream! the first lyric reminds me of that song that starts "Ain't no sunshine when you're gone". Also sounds very influenced by New Orleans style blues rock.
In terms of criticism I can't really say much. I would think that having two guitar solos is slightly over indulgent but I think thats more of a personal touch and more suitable for the genre you're playing.

Hey Michael,
This is my favorite of yours by far. I echo the comments on the Dylan delivery. But this is Dylan going electric at the Newport folk festival with Al Kooper killing it on the B3. Kudos. Dang that is a tight band you have hidden in that box!
