Very, very nice, Ron! What a soulful rendition of this Etta James classic. I like your Fender steel guitar too!

Beautiful, Bishop. This one has you smiling right off, and me too.
I love this tune, and I love Etta. Lovely feel, like the blues, but it's love coming and not going.

If I could come back again as a piano player (again), I'd do it just to play the keyboard part on this tune.

I`m sorry that I`m a little late with my reponses, I cant seem to keep up, but I`ll keep trying.
You guys, really know how to make a guy feel good. I thank you abundantly for all of your words of encouragement, because there is a lot going on around me. But because I`m able to share my God given gift of music as I play it, and my personal life of prayer, everything is going to, and is alright with me. Thanks again, God bless all of you,
and the best to all of your loved ones as well,
Ron

Hi John! :D ( Faulkinbury)
Thanks John, I cant help but smile. It is a joy to be able to make someone else smile by hearing a joyful melody being played. Besides, smiling is "contagious". (Gee, I hope I spelled that correctly)???
Thanks again,
Ron :D
