Smooth vocals nicely punctuated with tasty licks. Throw in some hammond organ. That's the way you do it!

I didn't know Shaquille O'neal had an album!  Sweet!

I wish RP would play more Shelby Lynne, I've always thought she had a good bit of talent.

Tony Joe White is fabulous; an unsung hero himself.

Very nice, I thought it was Joan Osborne singing with him at first.

Mediocré at best. Dull to me.

Haven't heard Tony Joe for years! Thanks Bill!

Saw him once back in the early 70's in Denver - opened for Cheech and Chong!

Very nice! This is weird, but at first I thought it was Greg Brown and Bonnie Raitt. Did a double take when I saw it was neither one of them. Yet another one to get because of RP. Woohoo!

Tony is another example that you can be an amazing singer,
without being a good singer!

Always liked him!

My thoughts upon hearing this for the first time. Virtually identical in parts.

What a good thing it is to have Shelby Lynne supporting the Legendary Tony Joe White. The kind of tribute that doesn't require a great effort to be appreciated just on the basis of style, so the resulting tune is lagniappe.

I love Shelby Lynne doing her best Tony Joe White.  A great combo.

Still amazed at the lack of Shelby Lynne on RP. Her latest album of Dusty Springfield covers is really exquisite - I don't have files in the right format to upload - anyone?

Shelby Lynn is teh roxxor. I've got her solo album — or I used to — "I am Shelby Lynn."

Nice seque from the last song, too. Bill, your awesome tune-picking really makes RP. Nothing like a human being mixing it up the old-fashioned way. But, you know, on teh intarwebs.

you got that right. The resemblance is enough to make me wonder what the movie would have been like if Leonard Smalls had actually sung something in it.

Shelby Lynne, she sounds very much like TJ's daughter, doesn't she? I thought "hey, that's Michelle White!" but it wasn't. Same voice, same mood. Beautiful.

Mr. Smalls was played by Randall Tex Cobb. To perfection. Great movie.

Maybe I'm crazy, but listening to this song, I see Tom Waits and Faye Dunaway sitting next to each other in a dark bar - both with a cigarette and glass of scotch in their hands and never once looking at each other.
