Pierre, thanks for the kind words! I try to keep my brain out of it as much as possible - thinking too much tends to do more harm than good when I'm playing.

Jeff, I really enjoy your playing. I tough song which you played and sang effortlessly. I envy your picking. I am working on improving precision and speed on that aspect and have an idea of the work you have put in this technique.

Nice work

Marc

Jeff- that is just freakin' outstanding!! I don't think I've ever heard a better amateur version of that song. I'm a huge Tull fan and I've messed around a bit with this song and, in typical Ian Anderson fashion, is not easy to play. Singing it as well as you did is just fantastic.

I am truly, utterly impressed. Congratulations on a totally professional performance. You should take that one on the road!

And thanks for sharing that video with us. I've watched it three times now!

Cheers! :cheer:

p.s. sorry for the late comments, it's hard to keep up with all the postings but I should have watched this one first. Makes me want to go practice!! LOL!

Great setup, great performance. It's been a while since you posted something, and this was worth the wait.
