This is the second CD released by Barefoot Jones
and features Maggie Clements with lead vocals on Everybody Knows that
and Riverstone which were penned by former band mate David Bedsole.
Lead guitarist Brian Helt sings three songs that he wrote - Everything
About You is a Song (written for his wife Valerie), All He Did is Waste
It and the title track The Way You Make Me Feel. On "Mama" Brian and
Maggie sign a saucy duet to the lyrics that were written by David
Bedsole's grandfather Randall that David later set to music. The band
gives a new groove to the traditional blues tune Matchbox with bassist
Dave Shogren on vocals and special guest Ernie Johnson on harp. Jeff
Thompson's drumming keeps the band tight and the feel loose and easy.
Greg MacNair's lyrical fiddle stylings help define the band's sound and
provide continuity between the tracks. Listen for Greg on the "bonus"
track Simple Twist of Fate. This CD was recorded with the help of our
friends at Webster University in the summer of 2006.
