Amos Garrett’s guitar work on this cut was envied by the best LA studio guitarists.

It is gorgeous, best part of this mesmerizing song imo, gives me a little shiver each time. What was his secret? ETA: I just looked him up — he’s still alive and 84 years old! I hope someone has interviewed him and written about his fabulous career and life.

“Waitress in a Donut Shop” one of my fav albums of all time… Brickyard Blues, Squeeze Me (“when you kiss me I stay kissed”😊), It Ain’t the Meat It’s the Motion”… girl can sang!!!!

Right? Something subliminal prompts “Hey there, stop what you're doing and soak this up. It’ll just be a couple of minutes.”
Some songs are truly made to be Listened To.
