I played them a lot on the radio and got good responses.
Yeah I think they'd win on not to be compared with Magic Band. I listened to it again, and damn that's some awesome musicianship on particularly the second one, with not only technical skill but also enough style and feel to it that even I can stand that awefully sleek production it has. But, well, I tend to go that direction nowadays it seems, becoming old or whatever it is about...
