I wrote this one morning but gave up tryin to sing it . then I asked my buddy Steve Schostal to do vocals . His Canadian accent was perfect for this . Notice how he leads the beat ‘wow perfect.
I love Colabs
I have always wanted to get down to the Bayou. Maybe you could introduce me to Marie sometime. It's an intriguing thought to meet a pistol packing gator plinking lady.
That's a mighty fine triangle indeed... love the banjo picking too. Did you stuff a rattle snake to get that shaker? You and that Marie are mighty fine indeed!

Comments on slkrell's stuff
Nice Beatles vibe
Beautiful song
one song a day not R P M
this was fun, then tune a day is not the rpm challenge it is my thing........
lovely
No warning needed for this gem. Somehow that banjo is the perfect backdrop for this melancholy song.
Simple but nice.
Still one of my favorites!
Best song I’ve heard since Saskatchewan. Way to go Steve! https://alonetone.com/slkrell/tracks/saskatchewan
Rather poignant ... in a nice way ...
Love it ....... An empty glass !!!!!!! Sacre Bleu ........
