Stand Tall
"Pretty cool. It has a little bit of an Iggy Pop crossed with really early David Bowie crossed with mid-career Mick Jagger plus a splash of Violent Femmes, just because. Well composed with a classic, vintage american rock and roll garage vibe. Strong chorus and nice use of vocal harmonies. At under 3 minutes, it's hard not to like this if you like guitar driven psych rock. I'd listen again (and did). Best of luck, Peter Johnston RVA"

I Know You So Well
A stellar song, w a charmin' vocal, rousing musicality, a lovely touch on the backing vox, "I don't know you at all," Dylan wrote early songs like this, or donovan, even so, such a unique sensibility here, this guy deserves a few Golden Kayaks imhv, hope he returns to play more songs, kudos...
