The guitar lead tone is anachronistic&#8211;it doesn&#8217;t sound like the period you&#8217;re singing about&#8211;it&#8217;s too overdriven and gritty&#8211;it&#8217;s Steve Vai when the tune is about Page\/Bolan etc.  I do like the 2nd lead part that comes but the tone is too harsh.  Why not drop the lofi vocals&#8211;it&#8217;s almost like a mask that you hide behind.  Sing it straight out one time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Laurence WatkinsSong: Bring on the SongsReviewer: Jeff RobertsPositive Comments: Of course this is Lawrence.
