Last one for now, I promise!
Another obscure one - fairly simple but pretty song by Ray LaMontagne.
Thanks
Jeff

I admire the fact that you appear so comfortable in front of the camera. Another solid video. I gather you would like to like to learn some fingerstyle songs, and as others have said in a different thread, it's certainly worth learning and becoming proficent with and without a pick in your hand.

Hi Jeff,
Though I don't know the song, I really like the style of playing. Is this your own arrangement? The picking and strumming works so well together. Nice to hear you singing as well.

Thanks a lot for the comments guys!
Stuart - I tried to stay pretty close to the original, with admittedly varied results. There's some acoustic riffs in the song, between the verses, that I haven't been able to nail quite yet.
Jay - you're dead-on, learning fingerstyle is my most immediate (and for now, elusive) goal. I know its a matter of repetition and developing the muscle memory. I was looking at the Right Hand section of Neil's Dear Prudence lesson, and I think I'm going to use those exercises as a starting point - we'll see how it goes.

Hi Jeff,
Another song I am not familiar with. That's one of the things so awesome about this site hearing songs I would have not heard otherwise. Anyway, real good job and you seem really comfortable with it.
