Joe sounds great. Would like to hear more Bill. As noted in the YT comments, the solo at 2:56 is reminiscent of Van Halen, Dreams.

Thanks for posting!

I had not picked up on the solo the first time through, but good catch on the similarities. Looking forward to the rest of the album.

Great song. But man, did they really have to rip off Dreams pretty much note for note on the solo? The song isn’t anything like it. The solo not only kind of sounds like it, it’s a direct copy.

Full album is out.

Immediate standouts -

"Sure" is a catchy duet between Bill and Jason - I don't hear Williams. Opening piano intro sounds like something off of Bill's last album, Livin For Love.

"Almost Had Me There" is also a favorite. A funky acoustic track featuring Bill doing his blue-eyed-soul thing.

"Wings Of Tomorrow", has a derivative synth-laden familiarity about it. Some may call it West Coast AOR (reheated) comfort food, but it's catchy enough!

With a second listen, I am sure I will find even more to like.
