I can just imagine the Western movie with William Ackerman setting it's song along with Ry Cooder as in Geronimo.

If you like this music then type into youtube 'David Connell Waterfall's Hidden Beauty'. His music is beautiful and very similar.

Beautiful beautiful song, have loved it for years! Finally decided I would try to learn it.
Went to Ackerman's website and got the tuning he uses from there:
G-C-F-Bb-D#-G#. Don't even bother trying it. You will guaranteed break your high E string going to G or G# every time. I just trashed three new sets of strings attempting it. I don't know how Will does it unless he uses strings other than what he claims to use. He says he uses D'addario light Phosphor-Bronze, which is exactly what I'm usi

I shared this song with my daughter. She was sad at the time, so I shared this video to say I love her. She thought it was beautiful & others heard it from FaceBook post and commented positive. You are SO talented/Blessed. To think anyone would dislike such beautiful music. They just don't understand what guitar music is, how beautiful, peaceful & how it fills the heart with melody. Amazing and thank you for sharing. Debby
This is the first piece of guitar music that I heard that got me into listening to 'American fingerstyle Guitar' , then it was , Hedges, Kottke, now Mckee, Ross, Dufour, ect. But this was the piece that started it all. It still has a profound effect on my mind and heart.
