My arrangement of the old standard "Old Folks" (Willard Robinson/D.L. Hill) played on a Collings CJ acoustic guitar.

Reverb kills your nice playing

[redavide1]

After I recorded this, I also thought the reverb was a little too heavy, but I hope it doesn't actually "kill" the tune . . .

Hello King David!

This is soooooo gooood!

You have a wonderful light touch and your guitar responds in a magnificent way.

The more I listen to you the more convinced I am that it is a Collings that I want and need...

Thanks for posting

Best regards

Staffan, thanks for the comment. I think you would be happy with a Collings and a Collings would be very happy in your able hands . . . I played an Ovation Legend for about 20 years before I got the CJ, so we've got something in common.

Great arrangement. Excellent performance. I recorded my upload because one rarely comes across a solo guitar arrangement of this great tune.

Love this song, and your playing. I think it is kind of an 'underplayed' song and am glad to hear someone doing it.

Thanks for the great music, Hashi

That was great. I've always loved that song and you don't hear it much. Your voicings are beautiful. One of these days I'll learn how to play it. Thanks.
