This started out as an ad lib instrumental that I made up on the spot about 15 years ago. Unfortunately I recorded it on a Vestax Portastudio at double speed, and the machine stopped working, so I haven't been able to listen to it for years. Then, two weeks ago, I repaired the machine and transferred the recording onto a Data MiniDisc. It occured to me that it would make a good song, so I wrote the lyrics, with the idea of people boogying in the back room with our old cat, Max.
Nothing special about the recording. It has a vocal and two harmonies, rhythm, lead and bass guitars, and a Guyatone D8 Non-Pedal Steel.
It's long...   
It's a great number for those who are chord challenged, as you will hear.

| Great! This reminds me of J. J. Cale. My cat seems to like it too. He has been sick in the last couple of days, but I think he's better now. Thanks for the post! |
