Tom,

I think this is your best solo to date. A really good overall mix, too.
I'd say the best use I've heard of that organ. The organ solo fit the song perfectly.

Good job.

"tommyad"...

That there is the blues with some knuckles in it, pardner! Reminds me of tunes I heard in blues clubs on sub-zero Friday and Saturday nights in wintery Chicago, my home town. Odor of beer, blue haze of cigarette smoke twisting in the air, waitresses who looked like they'd been crying, and inebriated patrons talking in voices so loud over the musicians that you wondered why they would go to a blues club to have a conversation!

Your voice is so rough-and-ready, I was waiting for you to tell a few low-down and dirty jokes before the song began. If you laid some sound effects of bar-room background noise into the track, it would sound like a "live" recording!

It was fun to listen to!

Molsen, Herb, Scott , Dani and Floyd, Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. Bluage, I too lived in Chicago and was exposed to a lot of great blues before I moved south and started listening to Merle Haggard. I played steel guitar and guitar for many years in a band based in Fla. I always made sure to include some blues in the sets and the crowds ate it up. We used to open for all the big country acts that came through town and one time Charlie Daniels played blues all night. Who would have thunk. He did play 2 or 3 of his big hits but everything else was blues. That is one of the many great things about BIAB, the ability to explore other genres. Thanks again guys, Tom
