Thanks Nancy. This is my third tribute for folks who passed in April and now I see BB King is in Hospice care at his home. I'm hoping he hangs in there and plays some more before he leaves us!

Thanks much Unc. This is a song I used to sing quite often back in my Tiki Bar performer days so I was pretty comfortable with it even though I dropped it down to a lower key since the high notes are iffy for me nowadays!

Excellent.   Great stuff on CBN this morning.   Spot ON singin'!    The shaker really adds something here.  

Great song and very good movie.  

Yup.  RIP Mr. King.  I did not realize your greatness until you were gone.  Your music will live on.

Jim, I've liked your singing from the start and now I think you've increased your confidence and sound even better.

Thanks Sammy. I'm quite new to looping and not ready to do a tutorial yet. Bemuzic and Vinnie and several others were doing such cool stuff with one that I wanted to give it a try. Seeing what Justin Johnson does with a looper put me over the loopy edge! Only problem is I feel like it's taking me away from simply sitting and playing acoustically but I'm sure I'll get back to that when the newness wears off.
