Ah yes, who could forget Elephant Parts (the movie I first heard Rio in).

Very nicely done!

What amp are you playing through?

[infusion26]

I use a Peterson amplifier ( Combo )

[californiaminpin]

World-class!

Nesmith was always under-rated - you bring out the best in his music.

Keep up the great work Infusion26 - we really enjoy it!

btw - Could Michael Nesmith's - Cruisin (Lucy and Ramona) be set to a bass cover?

excellent!  very well done, I'm Impressed

I love it!! This is the only version like this that corrects the bum note at 1:14, after "....I just mi-ight" in the original.

It's obviously a clam that was done before the vocal track was laid down and they just left it in. Now I'll never hear it the same!!! Thanks. Nice job.

Awesome, I wish my left hand moved as little as yours.
