Dan Wilde - Boots of Spanish Leather

[davew7752]

Another superb cover of the Martin Simpson version of Boots of Spanish Leather, this video really does not do you the justice you deserve, by the way which Seagull model are you playing in this video?

[pwilde2803]

@davew7752 Hi Dave. I totally agree with you about the video nquality, this is down to a crap camcorder and my crap technique!! Dan is playing a Seagull G6 in this video. He's had a few different guitars since but nowadays he plays a Fylde guitar. Thanks for your interest.

Hi Dan I'm so glad this is up here, after hearing you play it in Blackpool it's been in my mind! Hope to catch you playing again at some point, Hannah and Phil x

The most beautiful trees all grow from Dylan's roots. Spot on mate

[laxton19]

One of my favorite songs ever written, and by far the best version I've ever heard. Thank you!

[pwilde2803]

@laxton19 Cheers. It's great that you took the time to comment.

qwesome !!

[knappydanny]

oops, I meant awesome. my finger slipped. really great job, wish some of those people mingling about would shut up and listen !

[pwilde2803]

Thanks for the comment. This is my favourite posting, I really think this is a truly great performance by Dan - it's such a shame that the video is spoiled by all the background noise! Take care,

This is a frustrating video. I want so much to listen to the best version of this song I've ever heard without the background noise. Does Dan Wilde have any CD's out with this song?

[pwilde2803]

I totally agree it is very frustrating. Dan does not have any CDs yet but he is currently recording a CD using his own material, so this song will not be on it! There is another version of this on my site, but this version is my favourite of all Dan's performances. Thanks for listening.

[ippusor]

I absolutely love this performance

[pwilde2803]

I agree, I think it is one of the best songs Dan performs. It's just a pity about the background noise. Thanks for your comment. Take care

I'm so speechless whenever I listen to your version of this song. You voice and your guitar playing just gets me in a very special mood.

I wish you all the best luck!

...... and a great singer.

(P.S. Your website says you are 56, I don't know how you do it!)

Good stuff! And a Seagull guitar if I'm not mistaken...

My #2 is a Seagull, I use it if my Taylor breaks a string. Nice guitars.

i don't know who this is or where this is, but if i had a boyfriend who could do that i would marry him. this guy has a beautiful talent.

[pwilde2803]

Dan performed this song at an annual charity fundraiser (Tommyfest) which takes place in a small village called Singleton, near Blackpool in Lancashire, England. Great to hear you appreciate his talent and great to get a comment from across "The Pond".

[bonzodog10]

Me to, would like a copy of that.

[bonzodog10]

That really is wonderful stuff mate. I would give it six stars but i only got five, keep on picking.

[robindavies24]

Great rendition and great playing.

[pwilde2803]

Thanks for the comment, it's a pity the audio quality lets it down.

[Briocon]

Great performance, I absolutely love ur rendition 5*'s all the way - Wish I was there!! Awesome, Awesome!!

[pwilde2803]

Thanks for the lovely comment, Dan will be thrilled. I will be uploading some more videos this week, Tommyfest only finished yesterday. Check out Hallelujah!
