Description : This is Twanna's song that I added lead guitar.
It was great before I even played a note.
She know's what she want's to say in her lyrics and the message is loud and clear with her soulful vocals.

I've been so blessed with producers like Twanna that can take a handful of guitar leads and place them in just the right places.I was torn between Blues as Twanna has it or Rock...oh well,I've learned from working and talking to Twanna that she is creating her own genre.

As a guitarist ,I appreciate where she gets her ear for guitar from.
Please visit her page to learn more about this great talent!

Can’t believe that I haven’t reviewed this one yet my friend. You’re my hero, legend on the guitar my friend. You just have a sixth sense for adding right dimensions to tracks, this just illustrates your immense talents as a musician. Production is off the scale. The Loop is so lucky to have you around. Twanna+AllenV=Talent Overload!!! Love it Al.

This is another fine effort. It's got a real retro 80's kind of vibe to it. Sadly i'm only listening on my crappy lap top speakers so i can hear that there's more to this tune that i'm not picking up properly at the moment.
Twanna has some serious vocal talents and your guitar compliments it brilliantly. That solo makes my fingers hurt just listening to it lol.

The solo made my fingers hurt playing it,I had took a couple months off and the calluses were gone,you have to play every day to keep them...or numb yourself so you don't feel the pain...which I did;)

Thanks FreeRadical!

Hi there AllenV,

Just ran across this beautiful song that you added lead guitar to. Very, very nicely done. I see it was done in August....abouyt the time the site went down, so I missed it back then. I don't get on here everyday. Anyways, you did a splendid job and thanks for sharing it.

In this environment that zoom sound works miracles and your fluent guitar style matches her voice in excellence. Awesome collab.

AV.i agree with you on the Smooth jazz genre. But how you put a hip hop intro on a blues rock song is stuppid creative to me,and the guitar work as always was right where it should have been in terms of licks and timing.Vocals fit the consept to the bone. wish i could fav.PEACE. THE MACK MAN OUT.
AllenV
AllenV replied 5th Nov 2011 - 15 years ago
Wow,thanks Mack!
But..go visit Twanna's page,she did all the creativity.
I sent her about three guitar takes for this song and she put it all together.Also she is trying, and I believe "doing it"... to blend the genres for her musical style as you notice so that is also a giant credit to her...I'm just honored to be along for the ride!

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Allen

Thanks so much again Mack.

I like the combination of of Soul and Rock. I love the lyrics to the track. Very powerful and moving track. Everything was pretty cool, and I enjoyed listening to it. This is going on my fav list. At the very beginning of the track, right before the guitar, it kind of sounded like something you would have heard from a Hip-Hop track... That's pretty cool. I had to listen to this a few more times to figure out the message you were talking about. Congrats you two, keep them coming.
AllenV
AllenV replied 5th Nov 2011 - 15 years ago
Yes,the track was sent to me from my good friend T and I added the guitar parts.I can't predict the magic Twanna does with my guitar but I love it also...Please give her the credit cause I just plucked the strings!

ps...Twannas arrangement with the intro was all her,I give her all production credit.

Thank you for listening and commenting.

For some reason I've never heard Twanna's vocals until now.
Very powerful and soulful I have to say.
You always underplay your part in a collab which I like; modesty is a great thing...However, you are a great talent both in my eyes and ears.
Top notch collab :)

Hey M!!lol...I'm so happy you understand the genre thing that can get a little confusing some times.

I had A great review on a song of mine once that said he almost didn't listen to the track cause of the genre...and I'm guilty too!

But now I try to look beyond that and to the artist.

Thank you again M!

Allen,
Very nice. I would lean almost towards progressive soul as the genre on this one.

AllenV replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks Rat,I think we need more genres to choose from on this site,we can't write our own in can we?
I'll have to check it out,I know SpellJammer and I could use a Smooth Jazz genre and you're right about this song but seriously,Twanna is blending many styles to create her own,she's awesome!

Thanks Mark,and I'm ok...just going through the same ol' same..trying to make a living and take care of my family,it's not as easy as it used to be but I have Faith!

Thank you!
