I liked this from the intro- rocking and rolling

Cherry Pie The Frontliners

Cherry Pie. Oh yeah! This sounds like a John Enwistle solo effort, or perhaps one of those Americana singer songwriter types who only get played on public radio.

Singer delivers the song with a down and dirty bluesy growl ala George Thoroughgood. The vocal melody is not amazing but it is timeless.

The rhythm guitar has a great tone, and strummed so steadily is surprising how well behaved it is in the mix. Then when the lead guitar comes in with its big riff, built off the rhythm, it couldn't be better handled. Very lively!

Drums and bass are paying attention and playing right along with plenty of gusto.

I love the old days when sex was discussed in code words. I give this song high marks for civility for that.
