Dennis- you do a great job bringing new life into these old songs. It's really easy to imagine you playing this live and loud in a smoky club somewhere.

I will forever have a memory of my boss (and one of my best friends) and his two old band buddies doing this song with an acoustic guitar and an electric bass one night after WAY too many tequilas in SB, CA.

Gary on guitar had enough to drop most men yet could still play. The outcome of this effort was hilarious as they got lost several time and Mike being hispanic started to comment how if the cowboy had been mexican none of this would have happened. You can imagine where the lyrics went... We all died of laugher as the long progressed. I've got to try and find the recording of this and post it...

Nothing like I remember it, &mdash 03/01/08 - 08:40:50 AM
but great never the less. You've taken an old standard country song and breathed new life into it Dennis, and you did a really good job of it too. I like the guitar with the vibrato on it in the rhythm and the lead fits. You vocal works really great on this one too. Nice clean mix Dennis, thanks for sharing it.

love that tune &mdash 03/02/08 - 09:24:05 PM
so good hear it again. Terrific vocal, I keep thinking yardbirds etc but you have a very pro sound of that era. Your harmonzations are indeed very interesting. LIke those layered lead sounds as well.

Cool drums and how they have that simplicist marching sound but very infectious indeed.

Thanks for sharing!

Again what a unique great folk sounding voice and harmonizations!

I'm taken back to the Urban Celtic I used to do with our band the swerving Bufoons! Don't get me wrong we we're rockin and full of the celtic pride in voice. Just like this great rendition.
