Dean- Thanks, I appreciate your comments about the finger picking because I think you're a mighty good picker yourself. Not an easy song to learn.
Bob- Thank you, yeah, JT is the man!
David- Actually I wasn't exaggerating about the number of takes. This song took me longer to learn than many of the others. Thank you for your comments.
Willem- JT has always been my favorite singer/songwriter; ...expert? I don't know about that! About the green screen; I've learned that lighting is the most important part...I'm not sure I want to make the investment in the lights I would need to make a flawless GS video.
Harry- It's nice to know someone who appreciates the music of the late 60's early 70's (especially 1971 a magic year for singer/songwriters). What other favorites from that era do you have?
Bart- Thanks for your comments. If I ever do have a DVD or CD it will be free to any of my friends here at TG. I appreciate the constructive criticism. Would you tell me which phrases you thought were choppy?
Chris- Thanks! Dancing ladies :laugh: :laugh: don't think I'd get away with that one. My favorite take is #7
Corina- Thanks for your applause! It's easy to smile at people, not so easy to smile at a camera but I'll try harder
James Taylor told Rolling Stone Magazine that his muse for this song was a former girlfriend. He said he was singing about how nice it is to be with someone who knows you so well that she can make you "feel fine" just by being with you. This song connected with me when I met my wife 45 years ago.
Like I said to Harry, 1971 was a magic year.
Willem- Thanks for the re-listen. I'm curious about which phrases Bart found choppy because I certainly would like to improve wherever possible.
Bill
