Hi all, hope you're all well, I've not been too chipper for the last couple of weeks and it shows in the vocal I'm afraid but i just couldn't do it any more. Hope you enjoy despite the vocal. Willie

I agree that this is a little different for you Willie...but I think it sounds amazing anyway... I think it's good to sing even when it's hard and the perhaps lower energy is a good thing on something like this...
the song sounds amazing and I love the voice.
The guitar is a bit laid back too but so sublime... also the melancholic feel is very much a valid energy right now.
Fine emotional presentation - Vocal is just fine and felt the passion coming through. Love that great guitar lead as well! 8)
This is a cool song Willie and the Acoustasonic sounds so good...I dig the reverb/delay effects on it! I'm glad you added your tasty signature, sustaining lead guitar style to it...that's a real nice touch. I think your vocal is more than good and very fitting for the song. It adds a cool emotional vibe to it. Excellent my friend!
Hey Willie - I hope you're feeling better and on your way to recovery.
This song sounds up to your usual high standard, to my ears. Those guitar lines are gold, and your vocals are working the story expressed in the lyrics well. Very expressive.
Sounds like a good old fashioned country tune and you sound like an old classic artist.

What a great song. Sorry to hear you've not been feeling well, you wouldn't tell though, your vocals are still great. Really catchy tune, love the lyrics and some great guitar. Awesome lead.
I think hardlocks drums are also a brilliant addition. 🙂
A very pro-sounding production and a great example of your songwriting skills,playing and vocal. I hadn't noticed the absence of drums till I read Hardlock's post. He's done a good job too !

damn right the drums are great Ken... so... this makes me feel like I feel when I hear the drums on a good system of some of the great Eagles tracks... wow
Thanks for the comments on my drum mix but was told not to post add-ons without author permission.
Willie messaged me when it was 1st posted and likes it so it's back up now. :-[
Loved it Willie, i like that type of song anyway. Great country feel and those forlorn emotions are coming through big time in the vocal. Lovely lead playing and good work Ken on those drums in the 2nd version worked very well.
