Vocals were slightly Van Vliet'ish ! enjoyed it.

That's the first I've ever heard of Van Vliet, had to google him.  I'm happy to please!

Buggered me brain up ... I really couldn't understand the rhythm at all ... if Zappa saw my face he's blow smoke in the air and ask who my mother was ...and then I see Jesse's comment .. .far too clever for my old brain .. but boy... you play that ol'gitar well

Sabby, you're not alone.  This whole shebang started with that crazy guitar riff at the intro.  Sometimes my body knows more than my brain.  Thanks for your reply, as always!

This is great - the 7/8 time works really well (and after a few bars begins to feel quite natural), and the vocal/instrumental work is really good. Nice mix, too.  

Good stuff all around.

Thank you so much, Rob!  Couldn't have done it without artificial intelligence.

Good job. Song has a good structure, rhythm and melody lines works well together.

I've always liked oddball time signatures.  Well done holding it together and maintaining the groove.  That's tricky.

I'd like to thank each of you for your kind words!  I'm happy to hear that it works for others, and I'll keep experimenting with different time signatures.
