    on the flip, previously posted, the outstanding instrument was the
    piano of Floyd Dixon; on this side, interestingly, it's the guitar of
    a session player

    to nit-pick, on both sides Floyd's vocals are slightly harsh sounding,
    as distinct from a more appropriate, imo, mellow tone
