I recently re-discovered this group and was reminded how wonderful their music is for the acoustic guitar.

Hi Buddy,
This is a wonderful effort ... almost got me choked up, but I'll tell you how to do it next time
I wonder if the pick is really necessary ... to me the river runs without sudden hard picking sounds.
Your voice is inimitable, but you could do as for the hard pick sound ... tone down ... less wind, listen to yourself having fun, and forget you are performing.
No pretense from this end, my friend, great start !
I've watched this a number of times, and it ain't over yet ! Really nice !
Pierre

Pierre, Thanks my friend for the detailed and constructive feedback on this. Eventually I would like to also add a lead with a second guitar for this.

I was not familiar with this song so I'll leave the critique to Pierre who seems to know about it more than I. Anyway I quite liked it Buddy so thanks for the look mate. Will keep an eye out for the updated version with lead!

Hi Buddy, that's a nice song I have not heard before with a nice melody to it.It's shaping up well. Pierre is right on the money with his comments and my tuppence worth would be to pull back on the vocal (more loosey goosey, as Cory would say) and go for a more nonchalant style on this one so that the story comes through.
The range of sons and styles you've been showing is quite impressive!

Thanks much my friend for the input on this as it will help me capture the mood of this great tune.
