Track four on The Other Side (2009, ~4:46). Luke Walton feat. Blue Suburbia cover routed through John Scofield feat. John Mayer’s version on That's What I Say: John Scofield Plays the Music of Ray Charles (2005), not the 1966 Ray Charles original (Ashford & Simpson), though that’s the song’s root. Mayer also performed it live on Where the Light Is (2007).

Closes the four-track blues EP after Preschool, Move By Yourself (Donavon Frankenreiter), and Let It Rock.
