Hi Buddy,

Very well done. I think you did a great job on this song. Timing sounded spot on. The guitar playing sounded really nice. Your singing was really good also. I enjoyed it a lot.

Nice job my friend. I sincerely expect to hear this waffling up the back canyons this year on the East Side.....lol It would make a great campfire song. Snows a meltin', and the mountains are a callin'.......Good work.

Great work Buddy, looks like you've been working hard on this one.

Nice one, Buddy.

One thing I noticed is that you stop your strumming occasionally. This seems to affect your timing. Neil suggests that you keep the up/down motion constant, even if you're not hitting strings.

Guitar sounds great in this one. New microphone?

Really nice Buddy, As Al mentions about stopping the strum, I do that as well at times and its a conscious effort to not do it, usually after an emphasised strum. No magic bullet to fix it other than repetitive practice. When you do the bends on this I find bringing my thumb further behind the neck gives me the ability to apply more pressure I also bring in the trailing finger to help out i.e. if its a third finger bend I bring the second in close behind to help out bend the string, I read on a Gilour interview thats what he did when he was starting out. NOt sure about whether the solos were your interpretation or not but the notes were a bit different to original, didn't detract though as they all fitted in with the song. As always envious of a good singing voice there mate. Every time we hear you its a step in the right direction, keep it up.

Buddy,
Really nice job. Good singing. This is one of my favorites. I've always loved Floyd. You did a really good job of it.

I can tell Chas liked it from his non-stop clapping but that intense look on his face... I don't think I'd want to sit too close to him in the theater... :laugh:
