I did this one last week. Done at home, the drums are my cocktail kit in the garage with the BR80 almost on the floor across from it. The uke (rhythm & lead) are my baritone & the bass is my Haydeen U-Bass
 Thanks for helping me sort this out 64!

Hook's Blues
written & performed by Hook
I got the blues
I dont think the are going away
I got the blues
From my head to my shoes
Things keep getting bluer every day

Feels like a mist
Has settled around my life
Feels like a mist
And a wind cold and crisp
Of strain, struggle and strife

Hurt that's so deep
Has festered and and spread
Hurt that's so deep
The kind where you wish you were dead

I ain't tellin' you no lie

On that you can rely

The maximum total size for all attachments in a single message is 7,341 kB. You attached a picture which is 5,053.74 kB, leaving only 2,287.26 kB available for the mp3 file. That's why it said that the mp3 is too large.

I've moved the picture attachment to your second message so you now have the full 7,341 kB available for your mp3 file in the top message. Please try uploading it again in your top message. If the mp3 is less than 7,341 kB you should have no trouble attaching it.

I had a look at your Hook Song page but couldn't find a direct URL to the mp3 file so I couldn't use the [singlemp3][/singlemp3] tags to link to it.

You always commit to 100% in everything you do but you have really captured the emotion of the moment. An authentic blues song, from the heart to the heart.

Ooh. I'm liking this. Gives me a sixties Stephen Stills / Buffalo Springfield kind of vibe. The drum part and the solo are phenomenal. And the way you hold that note - magic. What a fantastic song & performance.
