I have to confess I never listened much to country over the years but some here on the forum have really turned me onto it. This sounds really good-great arrangement, mix, and vocal! Very good writing too. I heard Merle sing on "The cost of living" off Don Henley's Cass County. Love that vocal! Keep posting! Take care. Greg
