For J&B it's hard to go wrong with a blues rock song
and this one delivers. I read your comments about
wishing for a gritty vocal but for this song I think
your "cleaner" delivery works perfectly. Fine guitar
and production also. Like the cabin photo!

Yep. Same here. I spend more time finding the "right" photos for our lyric videos then I do putting the video together. IMO, the photos need to suggest the imagery but still leave a lot for the listener's imagination.
