Maybe you might have known someone that might make a good subject for a verse in this song?  I was going for a playing-live-in-a-small-Blues-club-venue  sound in this number.  I was also just trying to have some fun and hope some of it comes through.
Hopefully, it might bring a smile to your face.  As always, I would be grateful for any suggestions, crit's, and/or comments. 
Thanks.

Well done, Freddy.  This sounds like some good, old fashioned road house blues.  The overall production sounds warm and organic on my speakers, much like a vintage recording.  My only suggestion would be to pan the harmonica away from the guitar solo a bit to give each its own space.  However, if you don't change a thing, this will still stand the test of time.

Even a small blues club has some "verb". That was about all it lacked. Maybe a samll room verb on the 2 bus?

Excellent sound and song Freddy.

Cool tune Freddy... I believe the harp might be more effective, if you lay out during the vocal parts... or maybe just fill the holes...

This is Freddy blues.  Straight forward solid song.  Seems like in the old days when the girls left me they always had more than two things they didn't like about me.  Go figure!  :-)

Newpen:  Thanks for the kind words and welcome to the forum!
 
Hi Lynn.  Thanks for listening and for the feedback.  I get what you are suggesting, and guitar and harp could and should be separated a bit more.  Thanks again.
 
Hello Bapu!  Thanks for the listen and comments.  Good suggestion and when I go back to fix up this number it will have some room verb added. 
 
Hey Frank.  I toyed with doing what you suggest when I was recording but I let my enthusiasm get the best of me :>(     I am working on another Blues number and when I get to the harp I will take your comments to heart and try to restrain myself.   Thanks for the good feedback.
 
I don't get it Warren.  The only thing that I can figure is that those girls had absolutely no taste.  Thanks for listening and the kind comments.

I agree with Frank on the harp over the vox.

Nice Blues, cool lyrics, love the title.
