I played all the instruments as well as sang all the vocals.
Maybe a little too much distortion on the lap steel solo?

Goodmorning....I have to tell you that you brought a smile to my face this morning.
I just loved the video and the song.
Reminded me of our families old home movies
Was that shot with Kodak 8mm?
Distortion sounded right in place to me.
Did Andy have his father's musical gift and take up any instruments ?

Thanks for posting
Mike

Nice job Dom. Our last addition to our family was in '81. Looks like we did it the opposite way, you and I. We had 2 boys first, and then a girl. My wife always wanted a girl. Later in life she told me, the boys were much easier to raise than the girl. I did give her what she wanted, so don't blame me! LOL

(2:10 in the video) Harvest gold appliances..........ah yes, the good old days, and don't forget the Avacado green ones too. Laughing I was glad when our HG refrigerator finally gave out.

Yes, Andy plays the Drums and Percussion at a professional level. He was center snare in his High School Marching Band, Learned his chops and how to "swing" in the HS Jazz Band, spent many hours grooving in the recording studio and has been playing gigs and on the Worship team at church for many years.

I'm a proud PAPA
