Of the 3, I like Peter's version best. Jon Frattasio also does an *awesome* version.

Roger, because how often do you get to hear him sing?

I chose Jimmy's. But, damB, they are all very nice!

I just listened to all three in a row.

Jimmy's sound and the whole Coral Reefer band is just such a big sound. The vocals are cleaner and purer on his recording. Jimmy is so good about putting a recording out that sounds like a LIVE version. I guess that's a production thing...

I love Roger's voice on the song though, but the song just seems to go on and on. I like that raspy sound and the great percussion. :) I guess it does do a good job of featuring different players, but 4:50 is long.

Peter's voice is so nice, but but the arrangement is just not good on his CD, Romeo's Garage. It just seems a bit monotonous even with the special guitar solos.

I have to say though that Peter and Roger come to mind first when I hear the song and the lyrics Red Wine and Lemonade.

I like all my BLUE songs on iTunes:
Blue Eyed Cowboy by Terri Hendrix
Blue Guitar by those 3 guys
Blue Heaven Rendezvous by Jimmy
Blue Mood by Jerry Jeff
Blue Pieces by J Micheal Laferty
Blue Sky Day by Scott Kirby
Blue, Blue Water by Mark Mulligan
The Bluegrass Widow by Robert Earl Keen "quite possibly the worse bluegrass song ever" :lol: :lol:
Blues In Your Mind by Jerry Jeff Walker
(note to self to upload Blue Telescope)
Only Jerry Jeff's BLUE MOOD is better than BLUE GUITAR :)

Roger's not feeling the love here, I'm the only one who voted for him. And he's the only one in the band who hasn't signed my t-shirt. Even Jimmy signed it.
