Hi Willem,

Just play some James Taylor ! So easy, right ?

This is developing into something special, and it is already the result of lots of effort.

It also sets a good example for many of us. We need to be reminded that an upload can be a "work in progress" ... thanks for sharing­ !

Oh yes Pierre,,its always a work in progress,,I need some pointers for playing it in time,,I guess its counting and slow down,,maybe adding the words could also help,,but first more playing and counting ,, :woohoo: B)

JT ain't easy and you're definitely doing him justice with this upload.
I can also see a big improvement in your playing in general with this upload.

Willem,

I am proud of you sir!!! Keep up the good work. I know you've worked really hard on this song and it is now paying off for you. Plus, all of these skills will work very well on other songs you choose to play in the future.

Love it!

Hey Willem,

It's great to see you posting and progressing on what looks like a trick song; I guess all of James Taylor's fall into that category.

You are sounding really nice. I don't know if it's your guitar or the improved precision of your playing or some mix of the two, but the sounds you're getting are really beautiful. Keep at it. I don't know this song (I think.....) but, from the couple of comments I've read, it sounds like you're in sight of getting this down.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes indeed Willem, very busy for many reasons at the moment. I even wrote a very sad song which I may post in the future.
I think I have made a lot of progress this year in some areas. I am enjoying practicing and playing.
