For the 3rd track of my Shut In Singles series I present JJ Cale's "Sensitive Kind"

This track came from a sort of test session I did at Cowboy Technical for Shannon McNally that was arranged by Gary Waldman in the spring of 2001. We had Jeff Hill on bass, Dan Fadel on drums and myself producing and playing electric guitar. Shannon was in the booth singing and playing acoustic guitar. At the session we worked on some of Shannon's songs then after a break she suggested we run through Sensitive Kind. JJ Cale was real inspiration to me when I was attending the University of Wyoming in Laramie. I was happy to get to play the song with her. We did it once for grins and that was that.
Some time went by and Shannon never used the recording of Sensitive Kind. I eventually asked her if I could have the track for myself and she graciously said yes. I put a vocal on and had Bob Packwood come down to the studio to play the Wurlitzer electric piano on this tune and a couple other songs I had recorded. When we recorded the track, as I was making rough mixes we got a really cool, dead, 70's sound on Dan's drum performance. Luckily I had printed that drum sound down to a pair of tracks so it would always be there. This is one of my favorite songs. I left everything we played all the way to the end in there so you could enjoy it too here on the Shut In Singles Series.
