Hi Craig,

Nice work! Clear, smooth and relaxed.

I have to agree with the Jolly Green Giant (Tovo) about your right hand position. Try relaxing your wrist, letting your fingers point more towards the floor, but keeping your thumb as it was.

Fantastic Craig! There is nothing that I could add. You probably know that with time this one will come along nicely. Great work!

Craig,

Nice job!! I'm impressed that you put up your first attempt. That takes some serious guts, and also shows what your real level of playing is right now. Congratulations. I'm also glad to see you playing this through slowly but accurately. Much better to see that then something that's up to speed but all over the place.

I love this song and it's not one I would usually think of as an acoustic solo piece. Thanks to you, Marc and, of course, Neil, I now will.

Beautiful. Veru deliberate playing, which I think is the way it should be as you are learning something. Then, like BigBear said, you can begin to pick up speed but hopefully won't lose your nice style. It sounded really pretty, and you didn't need "takes". Thanks much for sharing.

Craig, very nicely done. I think there has been plenty of advice so I will just comment on the fact you did it in one take. I have also come to the conclusion that posting a video after one take, with some exceptions, is the way to go. It shows where you really are and lets you move on to other songs and come back at a later time if you feel the desire to show improvement. It was hard for me not to do 5 or 10 takes and choose the one I thought was best which is time consuming and not helpful overall. Good job, it was a pleasure to listen to. Gary
