[sycamoresong]

Nice cover of a Bill Mize work. You might list your own name as well to avoid confusion.

[Esjar207]

Beautiful! Only one question those are steel strings right?

[cesco105]

Very lovely sound!! FAntastic guitar !!!

[leo19cba]

what camera you used to record?

[webstersbookstore]

@leo19cba The Canon 5D Mk II. It's one unfortunate aspect is that to get the 1080p out of a larger sensor, they do "line skipping", which doesn't generally pose a problem, but you'll see a lot of artifacts in the guitar strings because they are tilted at a diagonal slope, and with line skipping it produces a "stair-step" effect in the strings. Nothing that can be done about it. It's unfortunate, but in every other aspect I am pleased with its performance.

awesome :)

[TravelMates93]

I really like this fingerstyle stuff, it impresses me every single time how beautiful soundings people can create ;)!

[temriver]

Well played and that guitar sounds great!

[Kregg17]

Awesome quality!!!!

[lippypete]

so good

[beneyedens]

check my video response, only learnt the song this week, its awesome though - recorded it through my iphone video thingy...

i takes alot of skill to play this piece perfectly!

[seasharpdeflat]

Amazing. It sounds just like the Bill Mize recording of the song I've had for years. A real treat to see the fingering. Thanks.

[beneyedens]

brilliant

bill mize is a fantastic musician

do you know where i can get sheet music/tabs

cheers

[BlindBlakes]

I forget the CD this is on, but its the only one of Bill's CDs that has a published tab book as well. It might be Mel Bey, but not sure. Check Bill's web site.

[hosswildcat]

@beneyedens I have the Tender Explorations book which contains this song as well as Miasma, another Mize fav of mine. I happened to find it in some random guitar store one day, and it's the only one I've ever come across...it did come with the CD, however.

[DisposableHero187]

aw man...just great

[Alleytonic]

amazing

[SantaCruzOM]

I know this is alot to ask, so I understand if you have no interest, but it would be wonderful if you would consider doing a tutorial clip. Just thought I'd ask...

By the way, your Larrivee sounds great. I had a D-05 and an OM-03R for a while. Still have a walnut parlor. Larrivee makes beautiful guitars.

[oceanfrog]

I'd like to, if I get a free block of time. Chances are it would be pretty off-the-cuff, but if people would find it useful, I can see what I can do when my time frees up a bit.

[JazzmanJibilla]

Nicely played and recorded. I'm still waiting for some Bill Mize videos to be posted.

[oceanfrog]

Thanks! I'm still waiting, too. I hope he gets around to it one of these days. I'd like some official Peppino D'Agostino stuff, too. But maybe I'm asking too much...

[alphabettsoup]

you ahve a beautiful sounding guitar. your are an awesome musiciaN!!!!

[SantaCruzOM]

Wow frog - that's tremendous. Absolutely fantastic version. The best on youtube!

[hosswildcat]

This is wonderful. One of my very favorites and I'm so glad to see a quality cover of it on YT. Thank you.

[Qpidon]

sounds gorgeous down here....fab sound!!

[oceanfrog]

Thanks!

[oceanfrog]

This version has better audio (I've taken the old version offline). The HD of this (currently processing) will sound even better.
