George...I love this...rarely do we get a Texas two-step on the forum...and this is fantastic...I'd bet your a fan of the Merle's (Travis and Haggard)...super mix and production...your voice was made for this style for sure...a well written and performed classic sounding song...a pleasure to listen to and hope to hear more of your music on the forum...Dan

Perfect, you captured the sound, smell, feel, of a old time country honkey tonk. Excellent use of Real Tracks, the fiddle, slide, it all sounds authentic, like it was recorded in 1962 in the Grand Old Opry. Your vocals, and lyrics work great with this song.

Hi George.
This is excellent listening.
Western Swing is such an engaging feel, and you've created a great 2-step.
It's 9:00 a.m. here in Australia and you've really set the mood of the day for me!
I loved it.

THANKS Dan
Yep, I love both Merle's, Hank Thompson, Asleep At The Wheel, and most anyone who does Western Swing.
I was raised on "Old Country" and I guess that's about all I know and understand.
I have some other songs that I posted years ago. If you can find them I hope you'll enjoy them.
Kind words and encouragement are most appreciated.
Stay Tuned
George

Thanks Elliott
Boy you have me nailed. I still live for the Opry and 1962 (might be a song in that).
Kind words are much appreciated.

George, this is some of the best country swing that I have heard since Bob Willis.
Great backing band, lyrics, and vocal.
Super mix also.
Loved it.
I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

If something I've written and recorded sets a good tone for someone's day, then I've accomplished what I set out to do.
I really appreciate you taking the time to listen and post such a kind reply.
AND all the way from Australia to Louisiana !!
I posted some other song a while back that I hope you might enjoy, if you can find them.
Stay Tuned

George, welcome back! Super tune, nicely arranged with BiaB, with slick production. Your vocals are SUPER, too! The Soundcloud pic has GOT to be on your album cover. All very fun to listen (and probably dance) to. Hope you stick around!

Good Morning Ronnie. Thanks for listening and writing back. I love fiddles and steel guitars too. I've tried playing them, but they're way out of my league.

Howdy Mc....
Even though it's not a genre I'm familiar with I'm glad to echo all other favorable comments.
Very clean recording, good lyrics and mix.
Unlike my dull chain saw kind of vox you have very smooth, appealing voice.
Very well done!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Since it's not your normal genre I'm especially grateful that you took the time to listen and write.
Good words are always nice to hear.

George .... Great sound!! Really loved it. Such an authentic sound. That steel would make Buddy Emmons proud. Excellent fiddle, and you killed it with that vocal!

Hey Brad. Thanks man, that's pretty high praise, and I appreciate it. I've always loved Buddy Emmons. Can't miss with fiddles and steels.
