[tori49476]

Everytime I hear this version, it just gets more and more beautiful. Thank you. XoXo

[johnt555g1]

This is possibly the best cover of this song I have ever heard...........thanks

John

[greencircleclassy]

dude this is it !!

This is some raw emotion.

[retodd7711]

Dude, you nailed it.

From the soft melody to the

hard, driving riffs.

You nailed it.

[almostgone33]

a long time ago....im in montgomery

[gonefishin1202]

Amazing cover, my friend--The best I have heard of this song in a long time. Keep on keepin' on

[soap4brains]

well now, first I wondered if you had a Gordon Lightfoot song, found that and low and behold I found this one, a hippie after my own heart. Got any Neil Young stuff in that hippieheart. You know what else I'd like to request, Kaye by John Wesley Riles (Ithink that's how it's spelled) or Please Come to Boston. by the way this is hippyesks mom, we have matching quitars, only I think mine has more holes. it's been to Saudi Arabia and back. Yup she went to war.

[strat2caster]

thanks very much for the kind words ...hippyesk is a very talented and soulful singer/player you must be very proud ;o) Strat

[nurse95560]

@strat2caster  Peace, love and happiness

[fellaws]

Beautiful ! Thank You !!!

[strat2caster]

your welcome and thank You ;o)

[brucefolio]

Best version on youtube!

[strat2caster]

thanks, thats a nice compliment!

[X599]

I may know nothing, but I currently believe, that each nation has a few of those tunes, which never get old, never sound misplaced, each time carry you away but almost allways will lift you up.

You probably know well, that there is a lot and maybe too much American music around, in Europe, but if I am in trouble picking a few from the bunch Angel from Montgomery would always be among them.

Great performance!

[strat2caster]

wow you sure come up with some nice comments, thanks!

[X599]

;-) To "come up with" anything, I tend to wait for some provocation. Else, my time is too precious to waist on platitudes.

As a singer, you have an unfair advantage over me, in this respect.

[strat2caster]

you are too kind, albeit verbose ;o) i appreciate the linguistic inclination and i do not doubt your sincerity...

[Mohamidddd]

Amazing voice bro.

You really play this well!

Youve got this down.

Keep playing. Five stars <3

[strat2caster]

thank you, glad you like it ;o)

[CptAJbanned]

Well how could I have missed this one? I liked the way you did the hammering on chord ~ sounded great ~ you really put yourself into a song! Very admirable of you! 5*****jane

[strat2caster]

thanks a lot Jane! the hammer-on is an attempt at adding Freebo's (bonnie raitts bass player) bass line to the fingerpicking..

[Cameragirl803]

Well, it worked:)

[strat2caster]

thanks ;o)

[navisirus]

very nice rendition of a beautiful, honest, tune

[aneedy1]

Oops! Susan Tedeschi.

[aneedy1]

Excellent Strat!! I can't help but believe John Prine would be proud to cyberjam this one with ya. I also agree with you about Bonnie Raitt doing a killer version and oh by the way.. Susan Tedschi rips this song up also. Hmmmm...come to think of it.....I don't know of any bad covers of this song. Anyway, yours is in the upper Strat2sphere with the best of them. heh heh.

Cheers Bro! \-/ \-/
