I don't expect that BiaB will soon be able to provide a piano part as delicate and nuanced as what you are playing here. Would love to be wrong, BUT...there are some things perhaps best left to the humans.

GREAT song!.

Ron - thanks for the nice comments. I appreciate the mention of piano - and bass. And those BIAB accents are important - simple and essential.
Much appreciated.

The piano and bass are simply stellar. The simplicity of the backing tracks says so much with so little effort.

Terrific song and performance. A true gem.

Did you have a particular female vocalist in mind when you wrote this? She's a little later on the country music scene than the time in which you wrote this, but I could hear Jennifer Nettles just tearing this one up.

But, ya know, anything Floyd Jane sings is wonderful, regardless of gendered lyric.

Best to you and yours,

Alan

Thanks a bunch, Alan.
It was Prine's "Angel From Montgomery" that gave me the "courage" to write and sing a song from a female perspective.
Bonnie Raitt did a heck of a version (as did others), but I always preferred hearing John sing it.
Jennifer is an amazing singer. I think Ashley McBride could easily do this. I'd love to hear Mirranda Lambert do it - she makes songs "her own"...

Those things will never happen.
I'm happy to have a version that came out the way I envisioned...
