I'll Fly Away

"I'll Fly Away" - Albert E Brumley

While this song to me has long been familiar, I was never moved to arrange a version of it until after hearing Gillian Welch's live version and then consequently hearing much more of her music. I always knew her name but somehow missed her material. I'm happy to have found it.

I'd give you more substantial feedback, Matt, but my erection after watching this is taking so much blood from my brain that I find it hard to put into words how awesome it was.

Nice finger-pickin'! Reminds me that, two years ago, when we buried my friend after his long fight against lymphoma, this was the song we all sang before leaving the service. But then, that's what makes folk music: it's a real and tangible part of the lives we live. thanks so much, Dorian! You are doing Good.

You continue to amaze me with your choice of music. The old standards never go out of style. I still say you were born 50 years too late!

Good job! Nice acoustics.
