Outstanding Mick, this is one of my favourite songs, and you played it beautifully 
What a great sustain you get from that guitar through those sweet changes, and all with a lovely bluesy feel.
Thank you, it was worth the wait

Just making sure Mick knows there's two of us. He may not have noticed. Danny/Donny,

Do you know what boys? I am not entirely happy with this recording. I personally think I may have tried to be a bit too clever. I have tried to use chords all the way through mainly because I found them and show off a bit by putting them in. Now when you listen to someone like Lloyd Green, he has the ability to pull out some lovely chords but he does not. Instead he will use a line of single notes and launch in to a chord or two before returning to single notes again. The old adage of less is more. I may look at this again and see if I can sweeten it up a bit by doing just that. We will see.
And as for the double comments? Well I know why I like being around you old boys. Always good for a laugh. Must admit I did think "why has he done that twice". Then I saw the names. That figured

I know what you mean about Lloyd Green, Mick. He pares everything down, leaves space, but at the same time makes it sound full and complete. And all done on a minimal setup, too!
If you do sweeten this version up, there's 2 pair of lugs waiting to tune in (I'm taking the liberty of including the lugs of my beloved leader, Lord Donald of Newmilns)
