Your vocal conveys the emotion of the lyrics without being overwrought. My fave lyric is "Well I can drink and I can laugh/I can sit here with my friends/And tell stories from the past." Nice!

Hey there 44kfl, I really enjoyed the overall tone of this. Excellent mixdown on all of this and I like the key signature. Thoroughly enjoyed the fiddle to blend everything nicely. Genuine lyrics too! Joe, Thanks for the listen and kind words That key signature would G, a good key for me.

Kenny,
I'll borrow a phrase from Greg Johnson - WOWWOWWOWWOWWOWWOW!!!
THIS is a GORGEOUS write! Every line, every word. If I quoted my favorites it would be the entire song.
The production is perfect. Just the right elements to support the lyric without ever getting in the way. Your vocal is icing on the cake.
I hesitate to compare this to "known" artists - because it is SO good - and Kenny Leverett deserves ALL the kudos. That being said... this has an Isbell vibe and is every bit as good as an Isbell classic and I would not bat an eye seeing it on an Isbell release...In fact, it would be a highlight. Of ANY record.
This is AS GOOD AS IT GETS. Period.
fj
Wow, what can I say I'm so honored and humbled I think that it may be too much like Mr. Isbell but there's no conscious effort to copy his style. It's kinda what the muse gives me and how I hear the phrasing. I am so appreciative of your support here, I'd probably have given up posting if not for you. Thank you for your kind words.

This is one of the best things I've heard on here in a long while.
I was immersed and lost in the lyrics from the first line and it's the sort of
message which stays with you long after the song has finished.
The backing is wonderfully understated and serves to highlight what must be one
of the most soulful vocal deliveries I've heard.
Beautifully done, Kenny. I need to listen again. Hey ROG, Thanks so much for the listen and kind words keep rockin'

Well done! You have such a good vocal for this style of music. It sounds very professional done - you are a good song writer and a good producer!
What's not to like? Amazing stuff!

I agree with Will - What's not to like? It's got that raw, open wound quality. Love it. Hey David, So good to hear from you, I appreciate the listen and kind words, looking forward to your next song.

Nice work. Quite a good job on this .... from the writing to the delivery, to the choice of instruments.
I could hear this playing at the end of one of the Walking Dead episodes. ( <<<< A very high compliment BTW ) Thanks Herb, I appreciate the listen and kind words, I'd love to have a song played at the end of any episode, I was a big fan of TWD at one point so I do take it as a compliment, thanks again.

Love the reflection on life looking back. I'm sure many can relate. A time of questions and self examination or avoiding the issue, matter of fact. What happened, could it have been different. Would I do it differently if I could go back. On a different note, I love David Bowie's reflection, growing old is this incredible experience of becoming the person you always should have been. Nice song. Hey Donna, Thank you so much for the listen and kind words. Thanks for the Bowie thoughts, I wasn't aware of this, I did love some of his later music, I appreciate your support.
