There are probably a dozen Lindley tunes I'd pick over this one, but hey, beggars can't be choosers.

Wish I'd caught him at the Oregon Country Fair a few years back. Does he tour constantly? |

If repetition bothers you, then perhaps music is not for you. Given your history I might suggest something banal like You Tube is more your speed. Have a nice day, somewhere else. |

Lindley provided the wail in a lot of Jackson Brown's early good albums, so not completely unknown. When he started trotting out solo albums, it was a bit of disappointment, but he still lays down some mean slide guitar.
This song would be better if they edited out the vocals.

Has this guy always been a side man? Or does he have some significant songwriting credits?
Lindley is a fairly unknown guy that is well known in the musical community. He has played with alot of the top artists and has had his own bands. He has earned the respect of being a very good slide player and tho from cali has done alot of cajun music. |

Reminds me of the Neville Brothers.... Okay for background, but would become annoying if played often... a 7 for now...

I can never get enough of David Lindley. An amazing musician that you must see live to truly appreciate. The guy plays every stringed instrument know to man.

Very true. This makes Jimmy Buffett look positively wild & crazy by comparison. |

Happy upbeat tune, but endless in the same way as Bob Marley.

Almost anything David Lindley touches is gold as far as I can hear, and this old stuff is highly worthwhile. But some of the newer stuff would be most welcome.

Umm, it's David Lindley.You know, THE David Lindley.This is a knockoff tune that use about 1/1000000th of his abilities and it's still better than most stuff you hear. 
I'm not particularly crazy about it, but c'mon. |

The magic of the entire album is that if it were released today, it would be a hit. Timeless wonder.
