Great Song! This should help her with a speedy recovery!
Makes me want to dance around in a circle on a couple of toes.... Love it!
Very smooth, this song just rolls and flows right along. I like the interplay between the vocals and the slide guitar!
Very easy feeling, like putting on old shoes.
NICE. It's got a wonderful feel to it. Love the "Doo-do-do-doo" choruses.
OOh Yeah!!
Like it mate
This is great stuff. Thank you for sharing.
Ohhh, Rock me Roger.... loved the crash chords and that sweet bass line. Faved instantly
who you gonna meet on the street. Great recording Roger, So clean and focused. You are one of my favorites
Excellente!
Oh very tasty. Very tasty indeed... It had me thinking Ronnie Lane? Excellent stuff.
A nice easy feel to this. Just what you'd expect from a *"fine looking woman"*
I really like that tuning.it suits a "fine looking woman with long blonde hair"
That's the stuff. I'm with Merry Bear over that banjo.
That banjo in the distance is just too damn cool!
YOU ARE GETTING YOUR GROOVE ON. I THOUGHT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SENIOR CITIZENS.
*I'm reaching for my harmonica to play along! Yep, key of E I'm forwarding this over to a friend. We'll be tooting along in Minnesota*
I was digging this and wondering what to say - handturkey nailed it, it's the pulse of the thing. Nice one.
Playing it again. This is one for the headphones! Love that lead guitar moving from ear to ear -- good fun!

Sadly too true for some, my Dad had a wretched childhood thanks to drink and poverty in the 1920's and 1930's. Great song.
