Really like the lyrics and the music sounds great. Very enjoyable listen. Nice slide/fiddle work and it always nice to have extra vocals in there.
Green stuff -- oops, I mean great stuff.

Howdy Bob,
I really like it. The production sound professional. Really like the lyric and the melody. The rhythm section is especially well done.

Bob,
I like it--YES!
Needs a last TAG LINE--something like: After we traded weed and shine-He said you can come back anytime!

Thanks all,
Recorded in the living room. We started adding different tag lines when we play it live. Haven't picked a final one yet. Yeah, TJ on Dobro and Darin on fiddle adds so much.

Really nice work on this, Bob! Lyric, melody, instrumentation, all are right on the money. I especially like the female harmony/backing vocals.
Fun song!

Thanks you all for your comments and your rime.
Muskie, There's one in every town if we just look I think. This was a lot of fun to write and record. There are enoughh sad songs, thought I'd write a happy one.
Dan, Crank it up, it's best played loud.
Greg, I'll tell Trina, we decided at the last minute to add her vocals. I thought it gave it a nice touch.

Hi Bob
Good song and production -- I like how the players really feel like they are all in the same room - you really did a great job with the mix on that. We have Lots of these kind of folks in this corner of the world - : )

Thank you Joice,
We set up in my living room with 4 condensor mics and everybody just started playing. Some editing after but not much. It's always fun when you have a room full of good musicians. It just seems to flow.
