There's always a great hook in your songs Vic. Of course this has your distinctive sound and style - which I love. Nice mixing, awesome guitar work and excellent lyrics. Great! Peter |

Epic stuff again Vic Great sounds, good hook, good mix - can't ask for much more. Except maybe a win on the lottery...... Cheers Dick |

I'm fall-ing Well, I guess it's officially fall now, since you had to go and write a song about it! ;-) Summers in the land of the north are pretty damn short. Great tune my friend, I enjoyed all facets very much! Packs a mean punch as well. exceptional production as per usual and I dug the staggering drums. Winter? Bring it on. Ax |

I used to have real problems with October Couldn't figure out why I got so depressed - but I finally figured it was a combination of shortening days and being a college dropout. Round about October I realized I was working when I might have been Joe College. Great production as usual - I especially like the hints of Halloween spookiness around the "days of the dead". |

So Long Summer Great lyrics, excellent song, lovely guitars and sounds. My favourite of yours that I've heard so far Vic. Really, really, really, really catchy song. Cheers Len |

Good full sounding song. I like the treatment you give it and all the movement. I never thought about what colours months are, but you're right October IS orange. Nice lyrics and vocal too, regards M |

And to think... November is just around the corner, haha! Nice track, Vic. I really do enjoy the changing seasons, but the shorter days do suck. |

I was.... ...looking forward to winter after missing the last one - but now I aint too sure. Vic, you are rapidly becoming my favourite MacJammer - there isn't anyone else on here who plays with such abandon. I say it every review but you go to extremes others can't even get near (that lead guitar) and you are fearless in your arrangements (those stomping drums) and you mix it all together so it sounds great (the whole thing). Ah what the hell, it's all good:-) |

You know what I ....... You know what I think? Great job and good use of drums. Intro and the riff remind me of "L'America" by The Doors. But, that's not the only influence I hear. I hear Floyd, Tha Clash, The Doors, and ..........................Tom Petty, I know who you are Vic. Dave |

Cycle of Seasons It's a great moment when the right lyrical idea connects with a the perfect musical mood - which obviously has happened here. In fact, this kind of success cries out for more. Perhaps you should tackle the entire calendar year and write another eleven songs - one for each month - to go with this one? Just a thought - but it could keep you busy for a whole year : > Look out - November lies ahead! |

what a chorus those hand claps brought a smile to my face, and so did the Gilmour gtr solo. This is a really nice one Vic, probably one of my faves so far. |

so good again... Vic, I adore your style. What a great song again. Everything fits so well. And I especially love that marimba break at 2/3 and at the end of the song, besides so many other things of course. Production quality is top-notch. And not to forget your brilliant sultry voice which makes it 100% Vic Holman. So good. -Walt |

Wowee. Love the guitar work! There's a nice mixture of dark and grainy and bright and crisp sounds in there, and you keep bringing in new sonic surprises all the way through. The vocals are superb and so is the production. And the songwriting. Er ... pretty fantastic in very department actually. Very impressed! |

Rain Driving beat reminds me of October rain. We do get some excellent tree color in October to make up a little for the cooler weather. The break in the middle is very well done. Top shelf song writing! Thanks Bill |

marching Wow, you have been putting out lots of songs lately.. I've been less active for some months, and wake up to find a stack of new Vic songs. You must be having a great time making so much music.. I envy that:) This one has the tight production I recognize from the songs I've heard with you earlier. The cool guitars with the signature Vic Holman sound. The marching phase is a clever idea to use as a groove for this song. It gives it a strong attitude, and appears convincing and with a fixed destination. It would be fab to hear the drums done with real drummers, having them do those roll of drums like army bands or brass bands usually do. What power a line up of several marching drummers could bring to this... |

Incredible sound Vic So full and clean. The various riffs playing off each other work really wel, especially the oddly timed one/s. Another ace post from you. Neil |
