Great thanks. We saw Martin last week at a local folk club, he was brilliant.

Very nice sir.

This has some Celtic undertones....reminds me of.... Yorkshire!!

[stevet380]

Ha Ha yes we are very Celtic in Liversedge.

Some tunes demand that you listen to them repeatedly. This is such a tune. Very well played.

Thank you again. Also thanks for making the tab available for your latest video, another new piece to work on.

Nice job on this. This is still one of my favorites to play. You play it well. Acoustic Guitar Notes Online this month showed Martin Simpson playing Mother Love, among other favs. He talked about when he came up with the tune at home with his family.
