Hi Rene, I remember this song and your cover is excellent! I’m sure it’s not an easy vocal and you crushed it

That is very high praise coming from an artist like yourself, thank you so much for taking the time to listen. BBB is one of my favorite Jackson Browne tunes, of course there are so many. It’s a very emotional song for me, especially on Lowell George’s slide solo or if I think about my wife’s eyes when I’m playing it. All the best to you buddy.
