Yeah... that's the name of the song. Something that was collecting dust in the hard drive waiting for some words..... but I decided to use it as a simple instrumental instead. Just under 2 minutes of sonic bliss. Hot Damn! The specs are..... oooops... I forgot. But it's only a few basic tracks.... Bass, drums, piano, and guitars. I'm handling the 6 string duties. Style is .... yup...... you guessed.... Honky Tonk Enjoy

Some pretty nice Honky-Tonkin' goin' on here, Herb. Simple and short, but so sweet! Tryin' to stop my foot - might take a while.
The tone, with the overdrive, on the guitar sounded somewhat like Keith Richards on "Honky Tonk Women". Nothin' wrong with that in my book. Nice!

Hey Herb, That brings back, what was for me at least, some real good times. A lot of times stuff like this was used to get everybody loosened up, because it just felt good just to play it. It brings back the joy of just playing for the sheer joy of playing. I could listen to it all day. As always, just awesome picking. Thanks for this one, Herb.

What a tune! Really nice groove on it, and I actually think it carries its own weight as an instrumental. I love how bouncy and upbeat it is. Precisely the kind of tune I'd imagine sounding amazing live. Great work, and thanks for sharing 
Cheers, Deryk

Hi Herb,
A super-cool piece of blues.
Great guitar sound and a very clean, clear, open and punchy mix.
Sounded good loud without breaking up and excellent stereo on both speakers and on headphones.
Nice work.
ROG.

Starts strong on the piano, and then guitar takes over. Nice playing, nice arrangement, nice mix. Short and sweet. I guess what I'm trying to say it... nice.
