@Johntheresonator Thanks John - this was made nearly 3 years ago and I'm conscious that the video and audio quality would be better if I did it now - but there you go! :-)
He wrote "Anna" (recorded by the Beatles), "You Better Move On" (recorded by the Rolling Stones), "Need A Shot of Rhythm'n Blues" (recorded by Clyde McPhatter)... A forgotten genius :-) Will
He was a singer too. He wrote 'Soldier of love' which the Beatles also recorded. Gerry and the Pacemakers recorded 'Shot of Rhythm and Blues'. Sadly he died at about 50 some 15 years ago. Sorry for that useless information
great tune ......Arthur Alexander is truly underrrated..I really appreciate your instrumental take

I'm a great fan of Will's but this tops all and is just amazing. Lovely timing. Best wishes from a 1,000 year old novice guitarist.

Very nicely done. It captures the mood of the Arthur Alexander original vocal version.

Very very nice playing Will - a calm, peaceful tune. The video quality is about as good as YouTube ever provides.

Many compliments to you Will. I'd like this song a lot. A simple melody with some nice features in it. I will study, but it will take some time.
I am what they call me here, a man who can play lots of parts of songs, but never the whole one. I'd like to learn some parts of this song too.
Greetingzzzz

Was looking at the original song of Alexander, a sad lovestory.... very nice. Looking at the chords, it seems so easy.... but I hear better!
You play it very well, thank you for sharing.
