Story behind the song
Jessie is my father-in-law, and before he'd gotten to the point where he couldn't play anymore, he was a fine country and blues player. The little blues lick at the beginning and end of the song is one I learned from him. This song was performed (like all the rest of the songs on the No Words Necessary Album) solo, just on my 12-String Guitar. I played the rhythm and lead at the same time, using a Dean Markley pick-up run through a Digitech RP-100 Processor, and a GHS Soundhole Mic using an Ibanez Delay.
