Broadjam Artist: Powerklash
Song: Grindleton – instrumental

Reviewer: MGB

Positive Comments: Great job here. Sounds like the Edgar Winter Group meets Ozzie.Has to be Powerklash. The excellent guitar and drum work give you away. Great chord changes and just fantastic good hard solid rock ‘n roll start to finish. Great song.

Constructive Comments: If I was to change anything at all, it would be the ending. It starts out sounding very good, but then it’s almost like it cuts off a little too soon. Great job here.

Broadjam Artist: lost on foot
Song: i cried a river

Reviewer: Patrick E. Muth/Catnip Pat

Positive Comments: Reminds me of the Kinks at the first part! Nice vocals!

Constructive Comments: I like this song overall but I felt the melody got a little overworked. I would like to see you write a break for this song that would take it to a new plateau and then bring it back to the main melody. a key change could be used as well!========Keep On Truckin!==========catnip pat=================

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: Through The Eyes Of A Broken Heart

Reviewer: Randy Steward

Positive Comments: Good choice on the placement of your song. It is 100% traditional. Nice job. I can picture Hank or Buck doing this song but with a little more twang. Perfect choice of instrumentation it worked well. Good clever ways to say the same old thing in an interesting way.

Constructive Comments: Sorry unless the name of this song is Upsetting the Apple Cart, one time of mentioning this was enough. Picky, I know, it’s hard to find something negative about your song. Good job, I look forward to more.

Broadjam Artist: Earl.C.Webb
Song: ALL I CAN DO (Peter.G. Olach/Earl.C.Webb)

Reviewer: Randy Steward

Positive Comments: You’ve taken a song that is a typical break-up song and made a listener feel almost good about it musically. This “sad song” had me smiling. I liked the way you phrased some of the lines and had a little variation in your inflections. I liked the phrase “Lovin’ on Borrowed Time.

Constructive Comments: The instrumental portion though sounding nice, seemed to go longer than it needed to. I did like the instrumentation used on this song. It worked well. I think the lyrics were a little typical and could have been a bit more creative. All in all, I really enjoyed this song and look forward to hearing more from you.
