This one is a classic case of "Chasing The Demo".
In other words, I am not happy with it. The demo versions had a ton more feel and groove. This one sounds rushed and doesn't do the song justice. Oh well, such is life when you are on a budget…
This song was written long before it was recorded, though it stayed pretty much the same from day one of its creation until the studio about 4 years later. My favorite part is my guitar riffs near the end. My least favorite part is my crappy singing.
This song went through multiple iterations before coming out like this. It was a great song to play live. Did anyone catch the tip of the hat to "Fire and Rain" at the very end of the song?
That twanging sound at the beginning of the song is me putting my acoustic through an amp with all knobs on 10. Acoustics feedback at 440mhz, which is an A note. The song is in A. It kind of sounds like a high tension electrical wire.

The close friend of mine who helped engineer this session said my gtr sounded like a swarm of angry bees. That's the best compliment I can think of. This was a mayhem producer when played live. I barely was able to keep it together in the studio…

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

Yeah! This is summer road trip music!
This one had to get the people moving when you played it live, holy crap that is a good tune. Instant favourite!
Well if Mr. Martin like the tune it can't disappoint. And sure enough, it doesn't.
Similar to the previous tune; if you didn't mention anything was wrong, we would praise this song for what it is: Awesome.
I would love to hear this one live. Didn't notice anything wrong with the vocal, if anything, they had a ton of energy to the track.
That bass line is amazing!
That is some good tunage. Love the feedback, sounds fantastic!
I'm biased, but I love this tune!
Nice hard hitting tune!
Wicked good rockin' track!!
Woo Hoo- Love the energy!
Dig it- Rocks hard. Love the guitar sounds
