Missed a couple of Greeny Mondays  :D

Apologies for my absence - I was on holiday (rainy Brussels), and am now having to work twice as hard to make up for the time I took off! Got plenty of listening to do  :D

Anyway, here's a bit of Americana - or as close as an English boy can get to it, lol. I wrote this in 1991 after my road and rail adventures in the States. It's just three chords... D, G, and A. I ressurected it as I could finally put the pedal steel sounds I always wanted on it.

Features 12-string takamine acoustic, telecaster, bass, and thumbjam pedal steel - all into the MBR.

Nelson

Damn it man.
You've been good for a hell of a long time.

The pedal adds the perfect touch to a great road song.

1991? The mix is so clear/good you could have done it yestereday.

Outstanding Americana

Hell... I want to do one now.

Just to clarify, it's a brand new recording of an old song

Did you plug Biloxy? I had the luxury of being stationed there for 6 weeks in the early 90's. I tried to steal a guitar from some dude with a Brittish accent. I wound up with a new coat instead... What's your address, I'll send it back to you with an apology letter. Actually I was there in 95...

Fun song Tim, I enjoyed the listen.

Great song, Tim. The lyrics sound interesting. Could you post them? Your words are certainly clear enough but I find it easier to relate to a song's lyrics when I can read them while I'm listening. When I'm just listening without the benefit of lyrics, I'm too distracted by the great music to pay enough attention to the words.

Great tune, nice laid back feel.

Love the sound of the Tele and the Thumbjam steel is quite handy too.
