I was inspired by Tony (tovo) to learn this song. It's a real challenge to make anything by The Band sound convincing without a full band, but this one I think works.



PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Stuart,

Another good one. I've been playing this but I am using the capo on the 2nd fret using G Bm C shapes. I also need to get the intro down. You've given me some inspiration.

Stuart,

Very pleased to have provided some inspiration for you on this. I really enjoyed your take on this, you very much made it your own. I could imagine you playing this in a cafe venue somewhere and getting a very good reaction. I really liked the lay-back feel you gave it. Bravo mate.
