Tony, you forgot to add the

WARNING, LEONARD COHEN, LISTEN ONLY AFTER DARK

sign!

Dang that was good! I liked the travis picking you did and you sang that so well with good inflection and feel, nice and moody. That is certainly a new level of performance you have moved too. I have to say, your progress is really enjoyable to watch. And LC really does suit you. Hearty congratulations mate!

PS. I will let the dust gather on my own little recording of that very same song of last week. And no worries, it's no loss, this is LC thread is up and running and you fill that space very nicely!

Hey thanks Tammy. Funny a fellow player from work watched it this morning and commented favourably on the playing. Which made me wonder if he DIDN'T like the singing! I think I was being a bit sensitive to be honest. But anyway, that's a very roundabout way of saying thanks for commenting on both! (eh)

Hey Tony,
Really nice job with that one. I enjoyed it very much and I also didn't realize that it was a Leonard Cohen song.

Hey Dave thanks mate, I really appreciate your comment. Yeah I'm surprised at the number of TGers who weren't aware of this as a LC tune. It's a beautiful piece of poetry from him that's for certain.

Hey Brad thanks mate. Mistakes are a fact of life, I guess the better you get the less you make, but I I think fighting through them is the key.

Hi Kenny, I'm real glad you liked it. Thanks for commenting.
