Different is what I like James. At the risk of being committed, I like testing the borders and walls and fences of this thing called music, to see if I can find a little give or soft spot. Very kind of you, thank you James!

Thank you Jim! Looks like we both had fiddles on the mind last few days. A contrast of beginning and ending for sure! Appreciate Jim!

That's wild when the string section comes in! Good one Richard!

I love it, and definitely brought out the sunshine! Joy has been spread. ;)

Thanks Derek! The strings changed a rainy dark day to sunshine and puffy clouds. I found this neat little bluesy riff on slide, wrote some quick lyrics, started out just drums and guitar. Then I added strings because don't all blues songs have strings! The fiddle track next, cured the blues, just wanted to spread joy, dance and goodwill. Probably would have been best to cut the first part and save it for another day. But it was blues that got me there in the first place. The full circle thing! Maybe the White album, right? Thank you so much for your comments, very much appreciated D!

The man from U.N.C.L.E, glad your OK John! Is edgy code for crazy here at the Nation? You know, while doing this song, I felt exactly like you. I started out with good intention to bring a tear or two to the eye and finished hoping that even children wanted to dance to it. Ain't life grand! Does CBN issue fines for messin with minds! There's a title for a song! I believe a long comment like this forces you back for another viewing. Third time you drop trying to make sense, which is good advice on all my stuff, and just let my psychosis massage away your troubles. I am in good humor today with ramblings. Thanks so much John, your humor is the best!

I love the strings, Richard! Beatlesque in spots and cool how the tune evolves. Great video too.

Hunh AP! Ha! Word of the day from Uncle. I seem to have taken John's peaceful quite life of bail bond Pawn Shop proprietor and turned it on its head. I'm trying to put Uncle back together again. Yup, is good! Thanks AP, just having fun today!
