I uploaded this song a while ago but I didn’t have a video camera then. :( So I thought I’d upload it again (since I now have a video camera). This is a simplified version of Tommy Emmanuel’s arrangement (I couldn’t even attempt to play his harmonics!).

great job,i think we may have very very similair guitars,mines is an ULTRA series by ovation model no 1317,ive been told they dont make them anymore in the states,its the exact same colour fret designs slightly differant but other than that the same,i have not long purchased a martin dcx1ke,first time i have seen the same ovation though,
just a bit of useless information there sorry,

That was a really great version of that song! Your playing was very inspiring. thanks for posting this one, I look forward to seeing what Neil will say about it (if he has time to review it). Once again, great job! Keep on strumming! Beaker.

Tommy: Thanks. My guitar is a 1983 Anniversary (model #1157).

Kevin, Pete, & Mark: Thanks for the kind words. Maybe someday I'll be able to play it more like TommyE. :woohoo:

Beaker: Again, thank you for the kind words. Unfortunately, I don't believe Neil will review this for a number of reasons: 1st I'm not a TARGET member, 2nd it's not (currently) a TARGET song, and 3rd I didn't post it on the StudentReviewChannel on YouTube.

Man what a great way to handle that ovation. That was simply incredible.

I'll never come close to Tommy E, but my dream is to
Maybe someday, play it like you.

Beautiful... and crazy hard looking.

Nice work.

Since you are that proficient, I have something that you can work on, I'd like to see your guitar face. It really adds to the performance. Just look ay Kevin's example. He used to be a 'cut you head out of the picture' sort of guy and now not only are we seeing his sweet face when he plays, but he's introducing his performances too.
