I found this song troublesome last year, but not so much this year. A year of practicing other songs and techniques made a big difference, as one might expect. Clearly some room for improvement, and I will continue working on it until Thanksgiving, then shelve it for another year.

Another winner with that. The guitar is sounding real nice, and of course your playing :laugh: .

Happy Thanksgiving to you.

That is really good! I swear that if you got 5 people here at TG to play that piece, blindfolded, I'd be able to say which one was you Jay. You have a signature in your playing... steady as a rock, metronome timing. Nice work, this is practically a wrap.

What no three part harmony?????

Ha Just kidding Jay. Awesome job. I'm very envious as this song has given me fits on and off this year. I currently lack the patience to continue before this Thanksgiving but there is always next year. I don't think you have put together a better sounding piece than what you just did with this song. Congratulations on a job well done. All your hard work is paying off in a huge way.



You can get anything you want at Alice's resturaunt.........................


Happy Thanksgiving!!

Man, that was just rock-steady perfect, Jay. I think the greatest compliment I can give you is to say that your version of this song is right up there with Vanessa's. You're in some very good company.

Now I'm off to your other upload.
