Tracks Of My Tears

This song was requested by Rich of YouTube channel DirectMain. You can hear his winsome version at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5PLzyTQqCg . I tried to stay close to the original Miracles version, but I lowered the key to sing it full voice since I don't have a strong falsetto.

Thanks for taking my request into consideration :)

@DirectMain Hey, no problem. It's not one I would have done without a request, but now that I know it I really enjoy playing it. It's gone over well when I've played it in public, too.

This one of my favorite songs from the 60s. Nicely done Les. -Ron

nice post les!! i've got a request for your beatles bag..... how bout doing "come together" ???!!!!

[GibsonAndVega]

@mpcguy I can't picture "Come Together" solo—I'd have to do some overdubbing.

@GibsonAndVega the bass line

@MikeyTSH This wouldn't be a bad song for your voice.

@Cameragirl803 Thanks, Jane. I wouldn't have thought of doing this if it hadn't been requested, but then when I tried it, it stuck in my head. Good tune.

Never heard this before! Nice!!!! I just love that guitar playing too! I notice you use 3 fingers to pick and use finger picks and use the other fingers as anchors...just guessing but is there also a bit of a banjo player in you too? Im learning 5 string scruggs style banjo so thats where my thinking is in your guitar playing.
