I have a huge problem with this - you're playing the notes but you're not playing the song! You don't sound like you've ever experienced the loss which is at the heart of this song - get your heart broken, then play it...sorry if that sounds brutal but anything else is just bloodless....

I've recorded Summer Lightning by Ralph McTell. Please take a look. thanks

Thanks for this. You sound a bit like him. No offence, but I wish someone would put a lot more of Ralph McTell's songs on YouTube, in particular this, "Summer Lighning", "Would I Lie To You?" etc.

Well done ! This song is actually a lost gem. I've always thought that Dolly Parton could have done this really well for some reason (probably for the brilliant chorus). The song always brings a lump to my throat.
When I was a little girl, I loved McTell. Dad sang and played guitar, and McTell was a hero of his. This one song, I would play the LP and play this one over and over, and sit and cry. Ive been looking for it for ages, I would love to learn it. This will help me a lot, so thankyou for uploading this.

Thank you for your kindness. My attempt to play this Ralph's gem maybe is not the best to make a tribute to this song. My version is slower than the oringinal because I play it like a lullaby!
