Sounding good, Captain! Nice vocal and guitar work.

I would have probably added a B3 in there, but the stripped down approach works too.

Good track, enjoyed the listen.

moto,

A good listen. An easy one to just sit back and let it wash over you...

All the part sound good. Bass & drums, guitar work and vocal (nicely recorded). Simple and clean, slow and easy.

Very much enjoyed that.

Hi Captain,

A real Blues, easy listening while sipping something to sipp from.
A beautiful guitarplay and nice vocals that sang about the sad things that happened.
I do like that,

Hans

Thanks Dave,
I purposely wanted this one to be a simple arrangement.
Having said that, I'm sure a little something else might make it more interesting.

Hello CaptainMoto,

It's pleasant blues that plunges us directly into an intimate atmosphere. The guitar solo is very nice. Everything is very cozy and it pleases.

Kindly regard

Nothing like a nice slow "swing/12-8/shuffle" (I'm still trying to figure that out smile )

Right square in our wheelhouse this is!

I guess it's obvious we are fans of sparse bands mixed with an airy open field and you nailed that.

No need to start parsing. We like it all. Nice write and great performances on guitar and vocals.

The real deal!
