Default Lockdown in Paradise Blues

Trying to find the right mix of anger and sadness at how screwed up things are around here.

Hope all are well.

I like the sound of the guitar, good playing too. I wouldn't mind a vocalist and/or a B3 Hammond.

Playing more of those flurries like at 39-41 would be good imo, it all sounds good but why not add more of those for dynamic effect.

I know the track is meant to sound suitably sad, but some up tempo spirited riffing won't detract from that imho.

Thanks. Not much of singer or writer, but if you have some ideas, I'd be happy to work with you on them.

Agreed, there are a couple of other parts I'd like to tweak a bit. Maybe go with some Wah towards the end to try to drive the angry part a little harder.

This has a nice Stevie Ray Vaughn feel to it. Some nice mellow blues. Well done.
