Broadjam Artist: Jerry D. Hobbs
Song: Lonesome Cowboy

Reviewer: Ashley Martin

Positive Comments: Really sweet song. Great instrumentation, some good authentic Country music.

Constructive Comments: I wish you would have posted your lyrics, might be my crappy speakers, but the vocals seemed a little dim a times behind the instruments. But I got the hook.

Broadjam Artist: Marc S. Pate

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: Just Like A Hurricane

Reviewer: Ashley Martin

Positive Comments: Great lyrics, beautiful imagery, metaphors. Kind of a bluesy/country/swampy hybrid with the instrumentation, very cool. I really enjoyed listening to this song

Constructive Comments: Your voice kind of disappears when you sing Hurricane, which seems to be your hook. I’d give that word a lot more power and attention, include the back up vocals, instruments. Sing it like a hurricane! Loud, powerful, destructive. 🙂

Song: Animal

Reviewer: Patrick E. Muth/Catnip Pat

Positive Comments: Interesting tune. Reminds me of 70’s Tasty guitar and production.

Constructive Comments: Fresh sound even tho 70’s flavored which is fine by me. You just keep up the great work and Keep On Truckin!catnip=+=

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: Comes And Goes

Reviewer: MCarollShaw

Positive Comments: Easy to listen to. I see this used in a movie or on TV more than as a stand-alone song. Very pleasant voice. There is no need to have a duet going at all. That voice singing alone is good. Well produced.

Constructive Comments: Good song. the lyrics seem to be about some unknown situation. In place of “Among the shadows that cast the doubt,” why not repeat what was said at the beginning:”Give it time, time removes the doubt.”?

Broadjam Artist: Sonic
Song: Next To Nothing

Reviewer: MCarollShaw

Positive Comments: Obvious effort went into the creation of this song and it is nearly as good as some of the things I hear on the air. Instrumentation – good even though the recording itself was not exactly soothing on the ears. It seemed as though there was an issue with the equipment – or maybe just my ears.

Constructive Comments: Lyrics are a problem. Garbled a bit in two areas. MUST be clearer to make me want to keep listening. Some words seemed squeezed in – some not clear enough even though the general idea is there. If he really wants that special someone to return, I think he should ask sooner instead of just saying “it’s not true.” WHY is it going to take a miracle to say “put the blame…”

Broadjam Artist: MGB
Song: ANSWER MAN

Reviewer: MCarollShaw

Positive Comments: Philosophical questions in a song are interesting this song qualifies as interesting. The arrangement is straight forward and has no problems.

Constructive Comments: Some of the lyrics could not be clearly understood. The music itself seemed a little formulaic. The beginning instrumentation seemed too typical. It needs to be goosed up somehow.

Broadjam Artist: Mark Tha Shark
Song: MINDWORKS OF M.T.S

Reviewer: MCarollShaw

Positive Comments: This song is very evocative. Even though it’s hard rock, the melody has enough of a jazz field that I can understand it. It definitely belongs in a movie. I really like this song. A very professional sound. It gets the heart pumping faster and faster. Best of luck to you.

Constructive Comments: It couldn’t be better. I really can’t think of anything to improve.
