That opening riff is very similar to that of "Games People Play," by Joe South.

The first-ever use of guitar feedback in popular music, from December of 1964 ......
"I Feel Fine" starts with a single, percussive feedback note produced by Paul McCartney plucking the A-string on his bass guitar while John Lennon's guitar, which was leaning against McCartney's bass amp, picking up the feedback.

Yea not knowing if you want lead or rhythm songs. but the groove on this one is awesome BUT. at the slow version when Clapton was on serious drugs and slowed it down was the best
If you haven't listened to Whiskey Myers You are missing out.
Blues county soul. They have a ton of great songs. I just saw them at Sweetwater ( I'm lucky to live by Sweetwater) a few months ago. I was blown away
I love this kind of music. I love harmonica and blues. So I guess thats where they got me.
Anyway. Google them.

Great song
Omaha. Don't know if you can sing. But anyway. If you're sitting around with a group and have an acoustic. If you play this you WILL have a lot of people singing it for you. Fun song and great to sing

They are on every play list I have, along with Tyler Childers, Sturgil Simpson, and Cody Jinks. So, so many good ones that never see air time, and I am selfishly glad they don't!
So realized tonight that if this song starts…… even if I’m in the middle of a sentence. I will stop and jam

You all should too!

Cody Jenks is bad ass
You need to listen to Whiskey Myers!!
So this one will stop me in my tracks. Just need to hear the first guitar strum
My wife gets called up on stage all the time for her harmonies if the band k owes her
I’m old. This song was. Big deal when I was in school

Whiskey Meyers is on every list I have. If you have not listened to Tyler, you are selling yourself short. Creed Fisher is a must.

I can see where that would be fun to play. I haven’t been playing much. Lot going on. Moved and been working on the house in spare time.
Although was sick so I was working on my finger picking a little
So not a guitar riff. Dont judge me. I love ALL music
But daughter is playing this version of this song this weekend. She may or may not play keyboards (self taught). Anyway I have become a Avicci fan
Kid died too young
I like original version but LOVE when my daughter sings it this way
Yea Very musical family. I am blessed!!!!
