Moth Drawn To A Flame
© 2017 Kenny Leverett

I was down in the Southland
Outside of New Orleans
Felt like I was pulled by a spell
To some Cajun scene
An off the map hot spot
Some place I’d never been

Late night joint, hot as sin
Moving slowly to see if I could get in
When this long legged siren
Took me by the hand
We’ve been waiting for you darlin’
Come on in I’ll explain
What’s in your blood
Draws you like a moth to a flame

She’s got a heart so wild
That no man’s ever tamed
And that Louisiana bayou
Keeps calling’ my name
And I’m drawn to that girl
Like a moth drawn to a flame

featuring the Shevreport Shrimpettes

(play loud!!!)

Drums Blues Rock Shuffle
Bass 1546 Country Swing
Organ 673 B3
Guitar 2624 Blues Shuffle Baritone

Hell, yeah!!!! Man, I love this!!

Great groove, just pulls you right in. Lots of great lines here, and your voice is just perfect for this material!

The tone on the guitar solo is something else!! Bad to the bone.

"Play loud", yeah I did that, just about to do it again.

Awesome!!!

That's what I'm talkin bout! That baritone guitar is just the ticket for this. Nice solo! As Dave just said your voice is perfect for this. Really,really good stuff. Way to go "again", Tom

Man, such a powerful vocal on this!
Very nice.

Outstanding, Kenny!

Like someone shook up Waits and Stevie Ray in a burlap sack and this is what fell out...

Your vocals get better all the time. Star quality.

Nice guitar.

Incredible vocal Kenny. Guitar was smoking. Excellent lyric and backtrack. And the guitar solo was just awesome. Super tone....

Summer heatwave, humidity off the scale, and down at the end of the ally, you hear this song blasting out. Great mood. I'll call it the STICKY BLUES.

Yea, great job Kenny

Thanks for sharing 44kfl - GREAT job on the vocals here! You did an amazing job making them really stand out! You can tell this was very well mixed, you should be proud of this tune!
Posted By: Greg Johnson Re: Moth Drawn To A Flame - 06/16/17 06:39 PM
KILLER STUFF!!!!! Your voice brought me back to the bayou, even though I've never been. Great lyric, great images, AND What a guitar solo-WOW! Some great gritty stuff!! Take care. Greg

Mighty cool blues jam man.

Locked and loaded.

Go Shrimpettes!!

Thanks Tom,

my guitar playing doesn't come close to yours

appreciate the kind words

Rough, tough, raw, aggressive and ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS.

What a voice! What a guitar!

Stunning, Kenny.

Love this song, but you're talking to the converted! Wouldn't mind playing it live here in the fleshpots of Hong Kong.:-)

Hey man, you listened to Tony Joe White's latest (Rain Crow)? This song would fit right in on that great album.

You know J&B love the blues and this is a gift! Superb performance vocally and in the ax.

Janice says she can see Dr John on the organ with all his voodoo stuff on top of it smile

Strong potions here and we enjoyed it and will again and again.

J&B

Loved it has a great vibe and it all comes together superbly.
Sounds extra gritty.

I do appreciate it, I'm all smiles

It's all been said... great vocals, great energy, great guitar. Nothing not to like here.

Shuffle Blues with a baritone guitar in a minor key. Can't imagine a better bed for this lyric. Your voice is perfect for this - rough edges wrapped around a dynamic core. By the way - that's a compliment!

Smoking guitar! terrific song and an equally terrific delivery by you. Super in every way! Loved it.

Gravelly vocals and crunchy guitar solos - what a great combination.
Posted By: Pat Marr Re: Moth Drawn To A Flame - 06/24/17 06:02 PM
let's just say this is highly to my liking! Great job on every aspect of this song! I like your vocals and the guitar playing is just the right kinda gritty. I also like the walking bass line and the way the organ interfaces with everything else. Great use of simile too.

I can imagine ZZTop playing this

Hello, Kenny

Heavy blues! (British style?)
And with such a powerful vocal on it.
Guitar is also fabulous.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Shigeki,

Thanks for the kind words,

I'd say more American blues style as in Louisiana or Texas blues
