Nice work! You need to calm those "playing live jitters" though, it's a bit on the fast side.

Thanks

But I outgrew the "playing live jitters" about 30 years ago ;-)

My version is meant to be that speed

I fell in love with this song while traveling through Scotland a few years ago. A young kid showed up at "Bothy Night," and sang this song. The rest of the program was dire, but the kid--and the song--blew me away. I scribbled the words I could make out on a napkin. Then, when I got back to the States, I scoured the internet to find the song. Today I found your version and think it's the best of them all. Lovely. Thanks. Betsy

That's how most people find Richard Thompson, by accident, and it blows them away! =)
