I try my best not to get into other people’s business. But if you are a true friend sometimes you have no choice and then you might end up with the blues. All comments / suggestions welcome.

Hey Tommy.
Don't normally like long intro's but this was a great lead in to your excellent vocal.
Great blues feel.
You nailed it.
Thanks for sharing.

Good stuff... and a great blues write.

Hi Tommy,
that's blues at its best! Your voice and guitar make it special.
I like that live ambience you mixed in.
You chose a very nice sax and piano.
An over all enjoyable listen (not only one)!

Great track, Tommy.
Liked everything, but particularly your guitar work - superb blues playing.
A nice live feel to the band, enhanced by the audience participation.
Just very professional all round.

'Bout as good as it get.
Dang cool intro. Just the right touch of everything. Should be a BIAB commercial... "Is it real.. or is it RealTracks?..."
Excellent write. A blues song with a story....Nice.
Good vocal. This fits you well.. I really like that reverb on ya...
Guitar = Tasty, tasty, tasty. Dripping with feel... maybe my favorite of your leads... S W E E E E E T!!!
The mix is IMPECCABLE.

Tommy,
Outstanding write and recording!
The crowd sound effects sold me on the idea that you had recorded "I Thought You Ought To Know" live at a club even though I knew better from reading your notes prior to listening. The illusion worked until the end of the sax solo. The crowd noise begins and ends too abruptly after the solo.

Thanks for listening and commenting Rob. I appreciate it. Tom Good stuff... and a great blues write. Herb, I played many years in a country band and I insisted that we mix in some blues. The hard core country guys were totally against it at first, but in the end I won them over. Hope I can do the same here. Thanks for the kind words. Tom Oh yeah!!! Now this is blues.
- Carolyne. Glad you caught this one before you take your leave of absence. All the best, Tom

Guenter Guenter, As I was mixing, I kept thinking it sounded like something you would hear in a small club. So I tried to find some crowd noise to fill it out. Thanks, Tom Great track, Tommy.
