From the start, I was thinking Marty Robbins.
Good old school country. Nothing like a "crying" steel to take you back.
The steel solo was OK. nice level bump to put it up front, but... it didn't resolve effectively. Could have been a bit better. Still nice, but .... you know.
Nice job. Herb, Thanks. (I think  ) Actually, there are two steels in that solo, which might not be audible on some systems. Phones might help. Thanks for listening. Regards, Bob

"There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly And a Rocky Mountain Lullabye That she wanted to hear."
As always, your writing is as "tight as it comes". I could have quoted the whole thing as an example. Never a word out of place. A lesser writer would take 10 times the space to say the same thing. Truly incredible writing. With such a "comfortable" singable melody - yet another skill on display.
I assume that is you playing the opening acoustic... super! Great sound, excellent recording - great acoustic sound, perfectly played.
The backing carries this perfectly. Enjoyed hearing a steel solo. Kenney Chesney could include this on any of his current records...
Keep it up, Mr. Burke.
fj fj, The check's in the mail.  Thanks, Regards, Lefty

Bob.....
I just gave a listen. Good folk ballad and I liked your vocal and your delivery works very well.
Lyrically....these lines stand out to me: "There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly"
Well done.... Wayne, Thanks for the listen and kind comments. Regards, Bob

So few lines...such a great story In my perfect world we could all write like that  This is the kind of write that Janice says "is so singable." Love those steels that work so well with the TexMex groove. Everything is hitting the note on this one. Most excellent! J&B

There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly And a Rocky Mountain Lullabye That she wanted to hear.

Bob, Takes me back to a time in the 70's when I lived in Colorado. Smooth vocals and an economical write that doesn't disappoint. Good one, Tom
