Love this version. Nice slide playing through the main body of the song and some fine organ from Brent.

Swings and rocks. Seat-of-the-pants soloing and soulful feisty vocal.

Lovely lazy groove. Harmonies spot on and a desperate tired plea of a vocal. The Dusborne matrix is the one.

This just brought me to tears. The vocal is especially moving.

Just terrific. Phil really shines. One of the very best of the very many I've heard.

Thanks for the heads up. Keith's having a lot of fun on this, isn't he?

The vocal is really delicate at times and deeply soulful, but getting the first line wrong stops it from being a perfect one. And there are one or two 'ouch, who did that?' notes played by someone here and there. Maybe I'm being too picky, though. It definitely deserves more love on the strength of the singing alone.
