Splendid job J


Neil recently told me that he had to work harder on playing and singing this one at the same time, than just about any other song. And I believe him.


You've done it very well.

Great job

Jay-

Ya know I was just thinking...earlier today that I hadn't seen much of jaycrocket in quite a while. And, I was hoping
all was well with you...and we would still be seeing plenty more of your skilled, & wonderfully eclectic posts.

Well I got my wish. And you have emerged once again. This time tackling Ian Andersen!! I just gotta say...
Wow, you are brave...not to mention...amazingly talented! Damn, that looks hard... I can offer nothing but praise!!! WOW!( This one is WAY over my head...well pretty much anything with singing is over my head. lol!)

I don't know if you hit it out of the park ( like you do 98% of the time.) But this is definitely a ground-rule double!
Boy, do you have my respect... Because here is a song if there ever was one that will make you better guitar player/singer/performer... great job Jay!

P.S. Been messing with Windfall and No Depression...the latter is kickin' my can. (Straight Cut-time Blue-grass Ouch!!)

[jcrocket]

Scott, thanks so much for the kind words!

Cori - thanks for your concern, all has been well, but just incredibly busy. Appreciate the feedback, as always (although ground-rule double may be a bit generous, I'll settle for an infield single on this one). Can't wait to hear you do either or both of those songs - No Depression has some pretty slick pickin' in there.

Got to agree with Cori, you have Ian Anderson on lock-down, it seems there's nothing of his you can't play. I'd like to learn Wond'ring Again as you played it (and sung so well). It's a pleasure to listen to you!

Jay, You are a brave man to take this project on and you pulled it off my friend !! Really nice work on the guitar and your voice sounds good as well. What a tough song to sing. Kudos to you on this one. I don't think the non-players in our lives understand how much effort a song like this takes to get to this point so just soak all of this in from your TG pals.

Jethro Tull is a bit of a mystery to me Jeff but man that was great! I will just concur with my fellow members, that was just terrific and very professional. If I heard you do that in a bar I would be pulling out the line from Billy Joel's Piano Man....."Man, what are you doing here?"

That guitar is sounding real nice in the low end also.

Hi, all i remember out my youth when i think on Jethro Tull is a kinda Irisch sounding music and a flute never thought this music would be so difficult to nail,,you did i geuss,,really enjoyed your show ,,thanks

[RicksPick]

Wow Jeff!

That was gréat, playing, singing!

I have to admit that I don't know Jethro Tull or any of his songs , I guess I should since Neil teaches a lót of his tunes over here, however I very much enjoyed you doing this song of him, and such a tricky one as well, very good job Jeff, well done!

Cheers
