Are you playing the bass. That is expert playing imo, the space between notes is perfect, that tritone slide is so hip, great bass groove with the drums and rhythm guitar.

Your voice is great, you're a blues man. And sweet guitar playing.

Digging it.
Hey Frank, the bass is loops. Thanks for stopping by and giving it a spin, Tom

Thanks so much for the very kind words, Tom

That's a line that'll grab ya right from the get go!

How cool ... we love that funk edge around the blues.

A story that no doubt many have gone to bed with smile

We never fail to be drawn in by your soulful vocals and this is no exception.

You make me wish I knew the "loop way!"

The write, the excellent performances on vocals and guitar would serve alone to make this a great song. But, man, when you wrap it up with a classic tommyad mix and mastering it just takes it over the top.

A showcase for the showcase.

J&B
Now that made me laugh. The story of empty beds! Thanks once again for the wonderful review,Tom

After that opening line, it didn't really matter what came next, I was hooked!

And hey, man, those are some serious riffs - most excellent.

Terrific all around!

Great tracks. A good mix (of course). Vocal sits perfectly.

Your guitar is top-shelf. Delicious tone. Tasty playing. Hittin' all the right spots.

Worth many listens.

Thanks for the generous review, Tom

I've used up my three superlatives, and that's not enough for this song.
David, those some very kind comments. Thank you, Tom

Love the funky groove you have going on. Drums sound awesome as does the bass, and man, just killer guitar work!

Great lyrics and vocal, and as always, the mix is as good as it gets.

Enjoyed very much!
Dave, I was hoping you would like it. On the guitar parts , as soon as I put down the pick and attacked it with my fingers ,I got what I was looking for. Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,

I had to smile listening to these funny lyrics and your very enjoyable song.
Well... I have to correct myself. The lyrics weren't funny but painful. However, the good thing is that you can make very beautiful blues songs with these experiences. And you have proven that in a more than credible way.

Enjoyed listening,
Hans

Man I'm loving it. From the drum intro to the drum roll there in the middle.... tasty stuff and innovative.

I enjoyed the listen. Very cool how you used just a few tracks from BB/RB for the organ.

Great lyrical hook: "And left me at the diner having breakfast with the blues."

Your guitar playing is smoking. I could listen to it all night!

The persona in this song sure picks the wrong women. grin
