[LittleBoyBlue75]

not cuttin it?

can't touch Skip of course...I'll post another version in the next week 'n you can let me know if it is any better ok?

[LittleBoyBlue75]

Haha - couldn't agree more; always the subtleties that make the tune different...back to the drawing board - cheers

[MSB76]

Nice work, man.

Don't feed the troll. Just ignore him.

[login211]

your rendition is quite good

[peterhndz]

As for the rendition, I thought it was brilliant. Respect.

If I wanted to hear Skip's version, I'd have clicked the other link. Why be disappointed that you didn't get to hear a carbon copy played by a different person? I mean, if you ask a classical musician they might say a song has its written or "Platonic" form, but I respect subtle alterations in the name of expression, or being able to watch another's learning process instead of expecting everybody to live by a certain standard which suggests that one either be an instant virtuoso or stop playing.

really nice, personal phrasing and singing too. you really created a mood there, thx.

I think you got the plucking/strumming closer than most covers I've heard. I was wondering if you have a tab for this or if you just worked it out by ear?

[111blues]

great, but you should get some microphone and get a better sound ..than people will realize your true quality

[shinobicorg]

your rendition sounds a bit like devendra banhart... well i'm not going to berate you for not playing just like the original. good job on this.

[peppermintmmeringue]

damn, you could get an woman you wanted with those skills. mmm

[BLacKCatB0ne]

Great work man, really nicely played. Is that a Guild you are laying and if so what model?
