Song for a Winter's Night by Gordon Lightfoot - Guitar Lesson - Cover

For all my friends up in the frozen northland, this one's for you. I think Gordon did this song in A but it's a little low for me in that key, so I used a capo up another couple of frets to Bb. My favorite key..... I added my own little intro and bridge between the verses. I hope you like it. The guitar is a 1978 Alvarez Yairi DY 85. Notice the burled mahogany sides. They look like the beautiful waves of a girl's red hair.

@maxflyingcowboy Hey, Max! Good to hear from you. I've looked for you a few times on Skype with no luck. Sorry to say I haven't posted anything new for quite a while. Too busy. Hope all is well with you.

Nice. I have a DY85 I've had for 14 years or so - love it. Your song reminded me that I need to learn finger-style. Enjoyed the song a great deal.

@timbrubaker Thank, Tim. I love my DY85s...  Both of them. I have one with 3 piece back and another with a 2 piece back. Also, there is a great Yairi group on Yahoo. If you ever have questions about them, that is the place to go. Thanks for watching.
