Seeing some of the new Dylan songs go up inspired me to look into this old classic of his You Gotta Serve Somebody. I found a real bluesy rendition by Etta James that I really liked and put this together. Let me know what you think, Bud

Buddy, I sure agree that you nailed this, and I can learn a lot from observing your playing here.
Really, really cool.
That said, I wonder what this might become if you tried it in a more laid-back vocal style, and explored more of your lower vocal range.
I have the impression that this would be newer territory for you (?) ... depending on the song, could be even more soulful y'know B)
Just a thought. It's always a pleasure to see you post.

Woha! you were really getting into that Buddy... and you strung me along with you the whole way. I really like to percussive playing and the sliding... very cool, not to mention great vocals. Damn fine job!
Hey Bud. Really, really solid. I gotta strongly agree with Pierre, I'd love to see you (or hear you) take a laid back approach to a tune. Maybe this one maybe another. You have SUCH a strong voice that it's never, ever gonna sound thin so something laid back would be really nice to hear. I thought that was a great suggestion.
Having said that, I'm just trying to offer something for you to try. There's no doubt that you nailed this big time.
