Thanks Rick and Bob.  I have lyrics about done, but it may be too much for my lung power to sing and harp!

Enjoyable sweet tune. It's got that classic UJ style.  Strong tone coming from that 4-stringer Unc J!  Neat atmospheric B/W video too!  Big Fat thumbs up from me.

The song is classic vintage! Young dudes like you come along and get it, and keep it alive. You Uncle, are a Nation treasure! I think the big fat lie was a serious misunderstanding, but I’m getting it second hand. Brilliant, and super tops in the black and white contrast, love it!

Nice to see you drug out the big box again :D

Thanks, Derek.  That is just what I was going for.  An insternoodle.

Nice insternoodling, John.

Thanks, Pick.  I appreciate that.

Thanks, Rope.  I like that it sounds old or old timey.  There are so many tunes.  I can't be sure if this is all mine or subconsciously stolen.  I think it id mine because I thought of two old songs and kind of copied, combined and changed up.

Dave, regarding the vocal, you know me too well.  I am a lyrics and story guy.  To do the instrumental, I had lyrics in my head.  I may do it some time with lyrics,   Thanks.

I guess I’m unclear about the posting stuff. I don’t understand embedding stuff. What’s zit? I thought it had to do with girls... Gardening maybe?

it would be nice to know how Unc. I think it has to do with your big Hat. I got one but it’s straw. My son says I look like a Scarecrow. I took it as a compliment.

I guess I’m just a teeny weenie?

My T Fine partner. I can feel a vocal brewing Unc. Bye an bye.
