This is awesome! Can you make a blues record already? 😜

I have one question though about the answer back thing. I watched a holistic Songwriting video on how John Mayer writes a song and basically, SRV is one of his idols and he always answers back(and does it incredibly well) but John Mayer actually leaves silences in those parts. Should you always answer back or is it more a preference thing?

    Saw that video yesterday x) It's very nice, and I was interested in that too. I think that that depends on the song.
