[@NeighborhoodPicnic-xj4qb]

Thanks! The drummer does the audio and video production.

[@GDTRFBBB]

Haven't heard this classic for 20+ years... Great Job. kim and the rest of the guys would be proud

[@henryneraiii6128]

Nice cover with a twist using saxophone together with the guitars. BTW I am from the Philippines. Way back in HS here in Manila I used to take a ride going to school riding a public jeepney while this song is being played on an 8-track cassette stereo inside while the driver is speeding at a fast pace on the road. Hell those were the old days here in Manila..

[@neilvergara2136]

Mabuhay!!!

[@vicentecarmelomanalo2018]

Brother Henry, the 8-track you are referring to is the Super Tuner Pioneer KP-500 perhaps, with surround sound 4 PT-6 twitter in every corner of the jeepney. Gasak-Recto route.

[@fredkaelin6051]

AWESOME SOUND...KDOS

[@efrenscover7034]

Big salute to this Picnic band...awesome! I enjoy it....

[@mikejewett1584]

Every time I listen to these guys I end up with a big ol' smile on my face!

[@MarkBaker56]

Thanks Mike. Does it happen on the sad songs too? Tell Mama has always put a grin on my face.

[@robertreed3424]

Great job on that one guys, always loved that bassline.

[@robertreed3424]

Dang, just realized the time stamp for posting. Before Kim passed. Just now showing up in my feed.

As I said on another post, this... this right here, is the band I always wanted to put together. Small, local guys, not rock star oriented. Just some guys having fun playing local stuff...

[@bubu345]

Very enjoyable, loved it. Jam on

[@jamesbridgewater5582]

damn !! great version guys!

[@richdooley3249]

Sounds Great!! It Does sound just like the original when it’s in open A. I’m in an ABB type band so I just play it in open E. Great Job Guys!!!

[@garysheppard366]

Was just thinking that too, Rich. Am going to have a try at this in open A right now! 👌

[@MarkBaker56]

Amongst these tunes is our take on Clapton’s Motherless Children which is also in open I also used open A . We don’t have guitar techs prepping our guitars so we plan accordingly so we don’t have to cart in more than three guitars or so.

[@fishfool446]

Well done fellas !

Great, guys!

That was actually very well done and sounded good. Its obvious you guys are well rehearsed. As a fellow bassist of 40+ years...Ray dunn good.

[@WildBillZim1]

Badass!

[@mjsmcd]

Excellent!

[@905Alive]

Excellent, what a surprise, this is one of the songs on my list of the "super band" I'm trying to assemble in Ct, this band is what I envision with hopefully at least one female that can play any instrument and sing, it would be based on Little Feat with songs from others like this, and my thinking is with the right female like a Bonnie Raitt sound (who sang a lot with Feat) it would gel and add some Raitt songs and Christine McVie, etc. People seem petrified of trying Little Feat "oh it's too hard" music is supposed to be challenging, right now Ct has about 734 dead cover bands, and no one does Feat.

[@MarkBaker56]

Sounds like quite the undertaking. Start with the rhythm section as LF was all about the grooves. Honky tonk piano stylings would go a long way toward acheiving their sound also. While you are at it some of the Bands material would fit nicely with that. Good luck and keep us posted.

[@MarkBaker56]

Have you seen Last Licks out there in CT. My daughter lives in New Britain and told me about them. Pretty impressive.

[@harpar1028]

THANKS SAVOY BROWN

I wish ya'll were in my south Mississippi neighborhood

so freaking sweet - better than the original - read that y'all have hung it up but i'm here to say pulleez do some more - many thanks and cheers from the delta

We say never say never. We ain’t getting any younger and this event doesn’t get any easier. Many of us tickling 70 so the set up tear down and logistics take there toll. Keep an eye on these pages and never say never.

[@racehemi426425]

Better than Savoy brown. I wish this band was near Detroit

[@0isez]

This is the version I always come back to. Nobody rocks like Boomers! Slide guitar tuned to A. Am I right?

[@MarkBaker56]

Yes Sir. At this point the action was high on this Strat so I tuned it to open A for this song and Motherless Children

[@MarkBaker56]

I have shimmed the neck and the action is greatly improved so now it will be in standard tuning and one of my other guitars will be dedicated to open tuning. If interested in open tuning our version of “Waiting for the Sun” I used open D tuning on an Eastwood Delta 6

[@0isez]

@@MarkBaker56 Thanks for the reply. I am a half assed guitar player for about 50 years. Try as I may I still cannot sound any good on a slide. I am beginning to believe you must have a proclivity for it. My brother plays a beautiful slide guitar in standard tuning. When I try ,I sound like a refrigerator falling down a basement stairwell. Glad you're doing it though, otherwise I would have to and bring an end to classic rock.

[@MarkBaker56]

You like most musicians are likely your own worst critic. It is a rare occasion that I am completely satisfied with my performances and that pertains to slide most of all. Slide presents so many nuances and variables that can be hard to master. The biggest being hearing yourself in reference to the other pitch producing instruments in a live setting. Keep plugging & chugging , hold on to what works, forget what doesn’t and strive to learn new techniques. A pedal steel freind once told me “it takes 10 years just to get bad at pedal steel.” I think the same apllies to a degree to slide .

[@0isez]

@@MarkBaker56 Thanks Mark, I needed to hear that. I thought that it would be a snap, especially in standard tuning. I will keep plugging. Thanks again...Ken
