Yellow Bird

[onkelbuke]

sorry for the comments, lol, you must start downstairs.lol

[geoff1945]

Yes! It reads in the correct order so thats fine. I'm glad you like Joni. 'Ladies of the Canyon' came at a very romantic time for me and my wife. We were about your age so perhaps you will understand that feeling. Oh I better say the romantic time continues!

[onkelbuke]

[onkelbuke]

[geoff1945]

Thanks, Alex. I like your humour.

[khtietgen]

Beautiful song, great performance!

[geoff1945]

Thanks Karl-Heinz. How are you?

[rington1]

Hello Geoff. That was short but very sweet.

Alex...

[geoff1945]

There is another verse about flying off with some other bird but Mrs Geoff won't let me. Mind you, I would risk the hell that hath no fury rather than face irate youtubers complaining that they have been short-changed. Having said that, I reckon reading the song notes (more) and then reading my reply could add a fair bit to the time..........

[geoff1945]

Apart from that , how are you, old chap. any more thoughts on another collaboration, 'Duellin' footnotes springs to mind for starters though I still haven't heard if you want to go ahead with the medley. Well I reckon that's about made up for my shortcomings, as the actress.......By the way was there a typo in your comment. I think you meant short but very tweet.........'very tweet' you see what I did.. Oh never mind. (3 minutes flat!) :-D

[SNAXDUO]

yes, i remember it well. well done.

[EdMuirton]

Excellent rendition! Cheers!

[geoff1945]

Thanks, Ed

[JazzEthics]

One of my old favorites too geoff! I used to play standup bass to this one... Excellent!

[geoff1945]

I'd like to try stand-up bass but I play bass like I play six-string so I might not get iit under my arm.

[JazzEthics]

Haa! that would be rough.... I bet you're glad your not a fiddle player then! Great tune!!!!

[geoff1945]

I thought playing harmonica would be an easy option but playing 'Dylan-style' I need a different instrument for each key. i got myself one of those belts.

[raymondcrooke]

Well done, Geoff. Lovely song.

Hey, there's me over in the related Videos!

[geoff1945]

Yeah! Just when I think I've got a 'first', up pops the old relation!

Is there anything you haven't covered?;-D

[raymondcrooke]

I'd say I haven't done about half of the songs on your channel - yet.

Greetings

Geoff...

Here in your sweet,angelic-voiced treatment of this most exquisite,tender-hearted traditional folk ditty,you have enveloped all of the lyrics with great passion as well as vocally saturated its timeless message brought forth by your pure and unadulterated manner of presentation...making for a most enjoyable floorshow to savor and sing along with.

Peace,

Max

[geoff1945]

Thanks again, Max for the wonderfully couched critique.

I won't use the word 'impeccable' in this case, what with it being a bird- if you catch my drift!

[stewballmax2]

I should like to add that Ireally had quite a gaffaw at the clever yarn posted in your comprehensive side notes.:)

Pax,

Max
