Michele - Thanks. I've played that song for a long time; just got around to busking it. I've always liked it but didn't play it much because of the high note in the chorus. Finally decided to do a work around. I'm glad I've inspired you to play.

Chris - Thanks for listening. Here's some good news...the Helicon Play Acoustic also had a looper built in.

If you move the camera back 20 cm, I think we will see your right hand and more of that beautiful guitar.... and you can send the phonebook to Ness! :laugh:

Great news on that integrated looper! Could turn up in my Christmas stocking!

Hi Bill, Wonderful job on this great tune. Vocals and guitar are really lovely and sounds great. Cool effects as well with the harmonies. Gotta love me some Simon and Garfunkel ! Bud

Good stuff Bill, as everyone has said really good sound all round .

I'm delighted to hear the 'extra' verse too... ie 'Now the years are rolling by me...'. One for the cognoscenti :)

Another treat by your hand. That was really cool, all round.

Simon and Garfunkle songs are in my list of favorites so I wouldn't mind if you did some more S&G tunes. It suits your voice perfectly
Also I really like you've 'bend' the song in your favor. If you wouldn't have done that, we would have missed out on this great performance ;)

Corina.

Chris - :laugh:

Jay, Tom & Buddy - Thank you.

David - Thanks. Love the extra verse, especially these days :)

Corina - I'm glad you liked it. I'll look into my repertoire and find another S & G tune for you.
