Great song and lyrics....sooo soothing to listen to.

Eric Swartz needs a great country song like this in his show. And...it's so true.

I'm amazed again at your dexterity for touching my heart with your songs of loss and unrequited love. After listening to this song I had to take a deep breath to regain my footing. Thanks for sharing once again with us JMT.

I like it. It has JMT written all over it. Wish you could loan me some of that ability that seems to come so easy for your brain but so hard for mine.

Are you from Portland Oregon? Did you have a brother named Joe and a nephew named Joe-Ben?

If I lived near you I would want to be part of this tribe.

Florencia Di Concilio It’s not the first time someone writes me a song, though it is the very first time I actually like it. I love the song, to tell you the truth! You’re awesome James Michael Taylor! You made my day. ❤️

Laurie Callinan - Its very beautiful. Love the line about the garbage trying to sleep.

Connie Pittman Ramsey Visually sorrowful and heartfelt.... Thank you James, once again, for going where most dare not go

First, the guitar sound is amazing. This friendly little project is is special in so many ways.

You asked me who Jack Hardy was...He was a friend of mine, now gone. Beloved by many. This was a bit of teasing him, imitating how he sang. He and I shared a mutual respect. The first time I met him I was sitting under an awning at the Kerrville Folk Festival and he pulled up a chair and said, "Sing me a song." We were buddies from then on. The day he would arrive at Kerrville was always joyfully anticipated, not just because he made such great spigot. Here is a link to more about him:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hardy_(singer-songwriter)

That bass is awesome! Great build!

This is beautiful.

Wonderful, James. Thank you for singing the songs in your heart. This world needs them.Summer Loraine Russell

Mighty powerful feelings of aloneness and independence, songs and songwriting/singing a perfect fit! Keith Haas

This immediately puts me in a mythical meadow with fairies and crickets and lightning bugs at dusk...

This is such a solid track it could go a dozen ways. Also, thank you for your comment. I had a 7th line clear up until my final mix when I realized how useless it was...your response verifies my thot. The song was start to finish this afternoon.Thanks again.

Crisp and crystal clear!

Perfect for your voice. "aging Silverado..." "so, I don't say a word, my order is heard."

Love your voice on this. Like 50s American pop song.

So clean! Really rocks. Sounds like your first language is American English.

Great production! Is that all you playing everything?

So clean. Very interesting...I'm missing some of the words tho. What country are you from?
