Always loved the lyric and concept of this song...

Nicely done Sean.

I remember doing that song..what, 40 some years ago..in my first band when it was still getting regular radio play. I was 18/19 yrs old.
I'd come out from behind the drums, sit on the Leslie speaker and sing while our lead guitarist did his best to do what do seemingly effortlessly.

Looking forward to seeing you live sometime soon.
Perhaps you'll do this one then?
I'll be sure to ask for it.

Thanks for posting this.

Very well done. The setting was a little strange for that song, tho. A quiet, intimate bar would have been perfect. I always feel I loose the audience on songs like that (however great they may be) when done in wide open, outdoor settings.

Thank you, and I hear you there -- it was a small crowd but a nice fairly intimate outdoor patio setting and there were some older couples out there that I thought it might connect with. But you don't always make the connection! I love playing it though, so there you go.

Very nicely done. I assume since you have it in your avatar and use it in performances, you really like that CA guitar. How would you rate it against a similarly priced traditional wooden guitar tone and playability wise??
