I hear some Lyle Lovett in this, except this tune has more of a rock punch in the middle.

To save you searching. . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_CUzuitxSI I can confirm it is well worth watching. I had not realised how much I dance like John Hiatt. Splendid. |

This ain't country in my books.Why do you think it is? Because he plays slide guitar? Because he has soem nice finger picking gooing on. Sonny always seems to have a Little Feat feel to me.

Sounds a bit oldfashioned, but is not "soooo" bad
as the previous poster thinks!
I can live without it too, though!
I give it a "6" |

Smokin' guitar player who writes fairly mundane songs. He's great with John Hiatt's band, though

Just discovered he's going to be at the Waterfront Blues Festival this summer. I will definitely have to catch him live.
