It opens with a fiery guitar riff followed by a scorching lead line that raises fists and heart rates. There’s no hesitation. No polite introduction. Just unapologetic, old-school rock attitude from the first bar.
The verse drops in with swagger as Rusty’s vocals slide into a low, confident register. There’s grit in his tone, a sly smirk in the phrasing, and a sense of danger that gives the track character. At moments, his style hints at the cool menace of Billy Idol. He channels that energy into something raw and personal. His delivery is full of character, the kind that tells you he believes every word he sings.
A highlight of the song is the call-and-response chemistry between vocals and guitar. It creates a feeling of conversation within the music—as if the guitar is answering back with attitude. This dynamic keeps the verses alive and gritty, giving the track a smoky barroom feel, like a late-night set in a New Orleans dive bar, neon lights reflecting on whiskey glasses while the crowd nods in approval.
The chorus hits with punch and hook, and the lyrics carry that timeless rock-and-roll confidence. This is a track about fire, desire, and getting in on life—not watching from the sidelines. Then comes the guitar solo, and it’s exactly what rock fans hope for—pure expression. It blends technical runs with soaring sustained notes, switching between speed and feel so naturally it becomes a highlight moment. No overthinking. No pretension. Just emotional release through six strings.
There’s also a cinematic streak in the arrangement that adds dimension. You could easily hear this track over the opening credits of a gritty action film or blasting through an episode of Walker, Texas Ranger—dust, boots, guitars, and justice.
“Piece of the Action” is classic rock done right—real instruments, real energy, real soul. If you miss music that bites, swings, and hits like thunder, Rusty Reid delivers.
