Leland, Thank you for Sunset Studios walk-through. It's beautiful, quite the recording environment. 😀 And with all of its' doors I would perceive it as a maze, a 'funhouse'.. :)

Really enjoyed today’s content tune and recollection. Thank you for your time to post it.

Emily Dickinson used a phrase ‘Barefoot Rank’ in a written correspondence concerning her fame and recognition:

“If fame belonged to me, I could not escape her; if she did not, the longest day would pass me on the chase, and the approbation of my dog would forsake me then. My barefoot rank is better.”

Emily Dickinson

Certainly not a frequently used approach, but one I can fathom.

Tea and sympathy for all life that lie in the shadow of human folly and at its worst.

As I'm enjoying the barefoot servants song I thought it was very Little Feat like. Billy Payne on keys, no wonder it sounds like feat. Thanks Lee.

Thank you Leland, awesome tune. I admit, "Barefoot Servants" is a wonderful band that I hadn't heard of until your speaking of them. Most worthy of further exploration!
Hope you have/had a great time in the studio today.
Peace for the Ukrainian people 💪🇺🇦💛💙☮️
Thank you Frontline workers 👏
Stay safe everyone 🤗 and have a great rest of your Monday✌️👍😉🌺

Worked with Jon in the early 70's when he was "Johanna Wild" and they were a Great band, miss those days. How he didn't make it BIG, I don't know.

A little Cajun Rock can alleviate the troubles in the world for a few minutes. Today’s track has that toe tapping quality.

[eddiethek]

Man, if that southern rock crowd wasn't aware of the Servants before that show, they sure were after!

[rikconverse]

That song was a real Payne…a Billy Payne! The flavor his playing really added so much to the track!

[kennonmoen]

In a world with so many serious things going on, sometimes a little Foolish Behavior is exactly what a person needs! Thanks for this.
Enjoy your time in the studio.
Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
Stay safe and stay well!

Incredible blues groove. Amazing - love this project.

[colinness]

Thanks, Lee. LOVE Barefoot Servants!!

[brettmarlar]

That had a great "Pocky Way" vibe on that one!

[randyschiffer]

Definitely has a southern taste to it. It’s like Gomez Adams playing with his trains. One is Little Feat and the other is The Subdudes. CRASH!

[Davydd]

I bought Jon's 1st album because of a music news program I'd seen the night before. I've been a fan of his ever since.

[Larkpine]

Hello! 💜👩💜 sounds like a great day for you! Thanks for sharing 😎

[stevehorvath]

Great stuff with a nod to Dixie Chicken!

[cannelle]

Hey Lee, I bought this one. So good !

[ML-rzhb]

Good grief that's good!! I'm playing it again.

[terriblemook]

Just love this band…Jon Butcher is so good. Takes me back to when I used to see him many years ago. Too bad this band didn’t get more company support. Have fun today. Stay safe🖕

[marklee]

Foolish Behavior was my favorite cut from this album. I still play it when I DJ. Thanks for getting back to this gem. Have fun storming the castle.
