Can't wait for the next one.

Very good!

Different...in a very good way. Like Ember we heard a hint of Cash in the vocal and that is always good.

As Mario mentioned these lines are stand out:

"And I know you shed a tear and we shared a beer I held you near.
Where gonna give it one more try.

So down this empty road two lonely soles and god only knows.
where gonna make it to the end."

There's a lot to like here....the write, the performance, the arrangement and the mix. Everything is hittin' the note.

Nice!

Just a quick note on the lyrics, I think you meant "we're" not "where".

I fully agree with Dave. he summed it up perfectly. This is one of your very best - of the ones I've heard. that was a real joy to listen to. Thanks for the pleasure!

Also, before I forget, the reso guitar with the deep reverb was a real nice touch!

Wishing you well,

Alan

Geoff who wrote the song just passed this year 1922-2017 (94), as well as Lucky Starr, Johnny Cash, Hank Snow and others did a cover of I’ve Been Everywhere
EDIT: just noticed, that's Brian Henderson in the video.

I haven't been to Narrabri for about 3 decades plus.
Tasty arrangement IBB the slide is perfect - reminds me of Daniel's Last Night In The City.
The only thing I can say on the suggestion level would be to pull the vocal back just a little - either by dropping the level a smidge or using reverb/delay carefully. At present the vocal rides on rather than sits in the mix.
Regardless it's a lovely song and well constructed.
Congratulations.


Cheers
