There is a lot to love in this one. ROG, you’ve got that tele talkin. Some really nice blues licks. Great overall sound. Mixed just right for the genre. Eddie, great horn parts and your vocal kills it. You both got it goin on in this one. I love blues so I love this, Tom Hi Tom, Thanks for the nice comments and coming from someone whose music I respect, they're much appreciated. Yes, it had to be the Tele for this one and then Eddie did us proud on the vocal - I believe he was hoarse for days afterwards! Cheers, ROG.

Some killer guitar happening here. And the bass & drums provide a great backbone. Sax was awesome. I felt the horn section was missing a high, crisp punch - from trumpet? maybe - just a bit too "mellow".
Good mix. A fun listen.
fj Hi Floyd, You really are too kind with the guitar comments - many thanks indeed! I agree about the sax RTs - don't know how I managed before. The horns - yeah, a great sound but maybe missing that harsh edge that the trumpet would have provided. We'll try it next time out. Thanks again for looking in. Best, ROG.

Those EPS horns really show how some of the aging equipment still has a place in the studio. I bought that thing in 1991!!!

ROG,
That’s some killer blues right there. The “horns” sound great and the guitar solo slays. Real fine work, gentlemen.
Best regards,
Deej

As a couple of folks who frequently post shuffle blues (like our latest) it was easy to slide into this one. We love the blues and especially a good ole shuffle.
Eddie was channelling a bit of Mr. Wolf on this one!
Nice performances on all of the instruments guys.
Enjoyed it you two. It was udderly good.

The drums also seem narrow...
Ha ha, get a grip, Ray - there's only a kick drum and a snare drum on this track. How wide do you want them?  Anyway, thanks for looking in and glad you liked the song and performance. Cheers, ROG.

Love when you play the blues Rog. Very cool vocal and lyric. Horns were excellent. Reminds me of the Blues Brothers tune. Well done. Hi Scott, From a guitarist of your calibre that's a very welcome complement. Eddie worked well with the horns and vocals on this one and takes the credit there. Blues Bros? Can't complain at that! Many thanks for the listen and review. Cheers, ROG.

BUT... did we pass the "Janice shuffle" test??? If Janice didn't do her shuffle dance, we have to consider if all the time we spent was for naught... If Janice don't shuffle The song you should scuttle....

Good 'old-school' blues - my favourite genre.
"...but Eddie must take the credit (blame?) for the pun in verse three."
Most definitely 'blame'. ha ha.

Most definitely 'blame'. ha ha. I wondered when it went up how many people would notice the pun had we not deliberately spelled it "UDDERly" instead of the correct "UTTERly"....

I like it. Pun and all. The horns sound good.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Excellent blues, guys. Given the title I was expecting quite a serious tune about depression, so was a little surprised by the whimsical third verse. Nice pun, though. Regards, Leon

Liked the energy and the horns. Heard the cow bell, maybe shoulda played it when you were singing about the cow! ; ) Great job all the way around!

Man, I'm gonna have to try to get back my ESQ-1 from the guy who borrowed it 8 years ago. Oh man. Was that YOU?? I have one of those too, and I usually MIDI the 3 trumpet patch with the LA Horns on the EPS sampler when I play shows. Ensoniq gear was great.

ROG & Eddie ...
It's hard to beat this old, straight-n Blues style. And you gentlemen did it good justice. Super licks and vocal. That sax lead is killer and the horns are terrific. Great sound ... loved it!
Take care and be safe. Best to both of you ...
Alan Hi Alan, Good to hear from you old friend. Many thanks for the listen, the review and the kind comments - much appreciated. Stay safe. Best, ROG.
