OK I gotta clear some things up about this tune. Long Way Home I wrote it in 2007-8, my band is The Euro-Mutts and Morris came to my studio in Walnut Bend Texas and recorded vocals and leads in 2008... I played all the other guitar tracks and bass and engineered it, Bucket Milam is on drums. this particular version was not live. But check out this review that was posted on Reverb Nation... (IMHO) It is SMOKING GOOD!
Song Review: Long Way Home
Overall Impression
Texan Morris Moon Taylor releases an impromptu collaboration with Florida-based rock band The Euro-Mutts, with this original tune titled "Long Way Home." Recorded live onstage back in 2015, this mid tempo blues number features a minor-keyed, real time arrangement that's highlighted by compelling chord progressions and searing psychedelic guitar leads, courtesy of Taylor. He also contributes vocals here, delivering profoundly cosmic lyrics in his howling baritone that perfectly compliments his wild and free guitar style. Blues and rock fans alike will appreciate the raw power and unbridled passion of Morris Moon Taylor's "Long Way Home."
Strongest Point(s)
Solid recording of a live performance, decent mix. Fantastic groove. Great descending chord progression. Nice guitar tones. Love the chorus section that begins around 2:10 and again around 3:40, really kicks up the intensity from the relatively restrained verses. The guitar solo section sounds amazing. Strong vocal performance, your delivery is well-suited for this style of blues. Outstanding lyrical content; there's a few really powerful and trippy lines in the verses, and the repeated refrain will definitely resonate with listeners. Overall, this is a genuinely sturdy song structure and a fortunate recording of an ephemeral performance that could be further refined, but can still be enjoyed as a live track by psychedelic-blues fans. Excellent work, by everyone involved.

About theeuromutts
Just another nut that fell out of the tree.
Long Way Home is a song I wrote and recorded many moons ago... I played the bass, 3 of the 4 guitar tracks (rhythm and sweet sultry lead parts and Bucket (Steve) Milam played the drum track... My friend Morris Taylor wrote these lyrics and he drove from Denton Texas to Walnut Bend TX in early 2008, to do his part in the recording of the PSYCHO-delicic leads and he sang the vocals. He has it listed on his N1M account at this time with my blessing with shared credit ... GO BUY IT on his page!

The Next 2 songs are a band I formed in 2008, we called it The Alternate Energy Band and NO the name has nothing to do with all this Wind, Solar yada Green Energy CRAP!... It is about the Mysterious Creative Energy of Our Universe as it relates to Creativity! Tom J wrote these songs and myself, Dave O, John F and Greg G (all from North Texas) played and sang and had a blast!
In short... ,
EUROMUTTS collection is just a bunch of stuff me and some friends from all over Florida, Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas did many moons ago far far away in North Texas! I now live in North FLORIDA!
(Most of) The stuff on my music list was recorded at my own studio in Gainesville Texas... now defunct, but that stuff may give ya some idea of what I MAY be capable of... going forward.
There's everything from prog rockish stuff, to acoustic guitar, bluesy-ish, folksy, Celtic-ish, New Country Rock, New Age-ish, even some sort of mushed and mangled up Euro Trash Goth sounding stuff... Along with random noodlings with a recorder turned on.
I don't like RUTS... and I have played boat loads of covers of all genres... but I like coming up with original music.
The resume: Johnny Mutt:
I started playing guitar in 1966, picked up bass along the way (out of necessity), dabble with keyboards, and occasionally croak out some vocals. I do a little composing. Probably have been in and out of 40 bands (of various genres) over the years. Some were all original bands, some cover bands.
