“This Life” hits you right away with its wonderful vocal and sparkling melody… the tone of his singing and the sound of the song remind us of the late great Grant McLennan, especially his solo work. And I can give Greg no higher compliment than that.

“Rock Song” Review:
“The lyrics are a self-critical lament for the passing of the very sound this track employs. This track will have appeal to those of us who have lived through that era and to the current music aficionados who actually listen to lyrics.
Continued…
“Does it really matter if the guitars have given away to cabaret. There are many styles of music, surely there’s room, even if one does not clearly dominate. Nothing rules forever. Another rock song will always be welcome.”—JL
ROB MORGAN
“An unexpected burst of Dave Gilmour styled guitar leading to a mid tempo groove, like The Verve channelling mid-70s Pink Floyd. Lush harmonies and unexpected twists make the chorus a real treat.”—@durutti74 (on “Sing for You”)
