Song for the times?

BigMike

Blues Oldie
After many months of struggle I am declaring this song finished. There is a lesson here, I could hear the song in my head as I wrote the lyrics, but ignored that and tried to do it as an acoustic blues. I am nowhere near a good enough acoustic player to carry that off so it ended up as I heard it and could have saved myself some time if I had done it as I heard it originally. It is neither rock nor blues but I think it has something to say. Many thanks to Cap'n M for his advice on the mix, after which I had a bit of an epiphany as regards mixing in general and decided to take the 'less is more' approach and place more emphasis on recording the tracks better.
The lyrics are fairly obvious, Covid and the place I go to when I need to get my head straight. Hope you enjoy it.
