This song is an old J. J. Cale number that was recorded by Skynyrd for their "Second Helping" album, and has always been a big concert number for them. Add to the fact it was part of my regular repertoire when I was still playing club gigs in the 80's and it was just a natural choice to record here. Although J.J.'s version was extremely laid back (and great I might add) and the "Skynyrd" guys had it extremely rocking' (and great too!! especially Gary's guitar solo), it really lent itself more to a bluegrass fell than perhaps any of the other songs that we recorded for this project. - Larry Cordle
