I have always loved this song, and you did it proud !!! Great job - a joy to listen to. Very steady picking. And don't let Michele hassle you.... I cut the head off most of my videos, but it is completely by design. Love those little cameras - the picture is so good. Izzy
I don't know Izzy.... spoiling my subtle plot to get everyone to show their guitar faces.....I obviously need to work on you more too!
If I can do it.....

Maybe Kevin's worried that if we see his face more he'll be inundated with fan mail. He's going for the drip feed method - just a peek now and then - like on Neil's birthday. Hmmm... when everyone is showing their silly side.

It's all good. But, be warned I will continue to campaign.

Kevin,

I really enjoyed this post. I really think the thumb pick is a great idea and added a lot to the quality of the sound on this.

Hi Kevin,

Nice job. You made it look easy, though I know it's not. I'm sure from your hum-along that you could have sung this song fine. The guitar is beautiful, by the way. And its tone comes through nicely, even on the camera mic. After seeing how comfortable you are with it, I'm also going to have to re-think my attitude towards thumb picks.

-Stuart

Kevin,

Your finger picking is excellent! I think i can learn something from this.
