Do you all have one of these where you live? A real life actual music store?

If so, please keep supporting them because this is where the true life and blood of artists lives!

Deep dive into 'The Wizard'

Envy, how to get a sound for a song that screamed Envy? I don't know why, but the idea of early 70's prog & psychedelic rock seemed to fit with organ leading the song like the early greats.

What say you?

Deep dive into my debut solo album, 'The Wizard'.

Why a funky Motown bass riff? Well, O'Jays Money, that's why; hence that killer funky bass lick running through this track!

What comes to mind for you?

Here's a song off my debut solo album 'Apogee'.

The main riff i have had for a long time but could never work into a song. From Death Metal bands to Hard Rock, it just never fit, until I was trying to work on the song following the climatic 8th song, 'Wrath'.

When I was younger I used to play Zeppelin all the time. So while it wasn't a conscious decision, Zeppelin is definitely in my musical DNA. Good pick

I hear the Zeplin and Floyd influences, but I know I'm also missing a ton. Amazing work, Mick.
