    One of my favorite songs, ever, but I didn't know about this excellent version. A bittersweet song that touches on so many things. Peter Case's wordplay is high level, and Dave's arrangement is really nice .Thank you.

    Once again, when we need him the most Dave delivers. This song, and all the others on his latest release are probably his best. Needless to say, it is a fantastic album. I can't wait once again to be able to see him and his gallery of guilty ones perform live. He is an iconic figure who I revere and respect. (Don't tell Phil)

    Thanks Dave, an honest and memorable cover of the original. I've been a huge Peter Case fan for about 25 years. The first album I bought was Full Service No Waiting, which this song appears on. I've seen Case and spoken to him many times, the last being nearly 10 years ago in Houston. I told him how much FSNW and its followup, Flying Saucer Blues, meant to me. I was surprised that he had mostly forgotten all the material on those 2 albums, including one of my favorites, "Still Playin" I played him Still Playin on my iPhone, and he was like "that's a great song - I gotta learn it!"

    I can't tell you how many times I've seen Dave but I can tell you that the first time was 42 years ago. He might not be a Bakersfield native but he has it in his soul.

    Wow, what an instant classic. I gotta search out Peter's version (His new album The Midnight Broadcast is great)...But Amy and Chris would be thrilled, I'm sure.

    A wonderful tribute...the collage is magic...it is fast becoming the memoir art form. The instruments used and the arrangement are marvelous. Every time I hear a trumpet, I think of my dad (who played New York/New Jersey Big Band dance hall venues in the late 30s and early 40s; his nom de plume as a musician was Bill Ames -- Bill Ames to Please was on the business card. Lol. Thanks for this tribute to all musicians.

    Dave won't mind if I give a shout for Marthas Vineyard Radio (download the app if you aren't close to the islands - its free and entirely publicly supported radio) because that's how I found out he existed, which I am ashamed to say took me until last year. But now I've discovered his music the seam just gets richer and richer. This is lovely.
