Me and my lady were watching Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge doing this on TV last night, so here's a drunken duet 2am cover  :D

Two layers of acoustic with some TJ pedal steel and cello, all recorded and mixed on the MBR.

2 mins 11

Ah, this is my other "all-time favourite" :) (In fact, I've sung this one a lot more often than "Bobby")

Fabulous stuff.

Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

Great job, both of you. Nice to hear Lucy in something more than just a background vocal. She has a great voice. For some reason, Lucy's voice on this reminded me of "Stay Awhile" by The Bells, who were a Canadian pop group from the seventies. You guys should cover that one too. It's a great duet.

Hey - right on Greeny.
Sounds like you guys recorded this at closing time in a Honky Tonk somewhere.

You and Lucy sound great together. Her voice reminds me a little of Mary Gauthier.

Well done!
It ain't pretty being easy.

Okay to Cover

Very nice duet! A 2am one at that. Those are the best ones. Excellent listen. You have a great voice Lucy! You both sound great together too.

 I don`t know this one although i know a few of his songs. But all the better when i don`t. It sounds fresh and new like it should. Do more!
