Nice harmonies!

Nice bridge! I like how it leads right back to the chorus/tag...

Everyone needs a "hometown song". This is a good one.

Enjoyed several listens.

Thanks fj, I think the very first song that I wrote years ago I was imitating JT and I felt the presense of another influence on this one and couldn't place it. I believe you're right, it's Paul Simon, tho maybe not nearly as detailed or as good as he gets but still...This song just fell into my lap, blame it on an old friend's Facebook posting, followed by several dreams that I had where I was much younger and back in the red clay hills of Georgia again. If you want a challenge, try recording with no drums and fingerpicking guitars, even tho I had a click track on to sing with it was still kinda slippery. I think I really lean on that drummer for my timing and place in the song.
