I've been playing bits of this for years but i recently got hold of an Ernie Hawkins DVD which straightened me out on some of it. Thanks to Ernie and to Bob Tilling of Jersey - an exceptionally nice man who sent me an Ernie Hawkins DVD only a couple of weeks before he died. And thanks to Gary Davis, of course!
By the way, I'm playing this on an excellent 'Outdoor' guitar built by Lukas Brunner in Switzerland. The neck comes off and it reassembles in about a minute. In tune!
Lovely piece, great playing!And a nice guitar - I might get one some day and stop worrying about flying!See you both soon - all the best

Beautiful Simon - I've been working on it since you mentioned it to me - you've got that middle voice ringing clear - sounds great!
