Loved it Jeff!
I love these story telling ballads and you play and sing it so well.
Great job!

I'm glad you're back Jay! (I was suffering from jcrocket withhdrawal.)
Really missed your performances. And as always, I REALLY love it when you tackle this type of genre.
It is VERY you, I believe.
You've got that hybrid hybrid picking stuff down pat! (Your arrangement? REALY GOOD!)
I like how you sing so naturally, conversationally and well... If I didn't think so much of you I would be real envious. (Seems like I've typed that before...)
And, what a great well crafted song... Pulls you in and won't let go.
Just an absolute emotional buzz-saw of a ballad. POWERFUL!!![sup][/sup]

How can one go wrong with Van Zandt and Earle..... B)
Like others have already mentioned, great job on the picking and overall playing. I think you did a superb job on a classic song. I have not heard that one in years. Thanks for sharing it!

I have to echo everyone else. Great job, and what a great song as well. It's performances like that that keep me working hard to improve.

Thanks everyone for all of the great comments, each one really means a lot. I've only been getting into the Townes Van Zandt stuff for a relatively short time, and like a lot of his songs, this one really grabbed me. He was definitely a gifted songwriter, though not one to put out "feel good" types of songs - his personal struggles apparently fueled much of his creativity. (Michele - if you thought this one was sad, check out his song "Tecumseh Valley" some time).
And thanks to those of you who commented on the hybrid picking - I kind of developed this habit by accident, but it seems to work well on this song.
The past couple of months have been a difficult time for me and my family, and it has unfortunately kept me away from this site and community. I'm hoping to spend more time participating, and enjoying the contributions of others, going forward.
Thanks again everyone,
Jeff
