Tim, nice job, great band. I always dug that tune and the steel sounds good on it.

Just perfect- except..........

No steel solo?

Cut it again and knock the National guitarist out of the way- just joking- he was fine

Kudos again

Agreed. An excellent reworking of a classic ..... is that a push pull you are playing?

Is his music on iTunes?

That's a nice, mellow version of that song. I actually liked the tricone and pedal steel together. I've got to catch you guys when you play around this area some time.
Thanks for sharing!

Nice job! I also liked the video production itself. Tell us a bit about how you did that. I don't see any mics but it sure doesn't look like you're lip-synching either...

Add me to the list, a great tune from one of my favorite recordings. You and the band really captured the vibe of the song. I liked the paring of the Dobro with pedal steel. Great video production, too.
