Man, you're awesome! I wish I new how to play that song. I've been listening to Kenny Loggins a lot lately.  Do you have any idea where I could find tabs for that song, and how you're playing it because that sounds right. Thanks man,

I don't actually have the tab for this one; it was one of those weekends when I just sat down and decided I was finally going to learn the song. It's pretty simple, really; mostly playing off the basic chord progression. The big challenge was keeping the arpeggio going while I was doing some of the runs in the upper range. I'll bet if you mess with it for a little while you won't have any trouble figuring it out. - B

Glad you enjoyed it, stktrd. And if you ever heard me sing you would understand just how much it would have gotten in the way; a little like Ozzy Osbourne showing up at the opera.

[wbross01]

Thanks Sara, it's one of my favorites as well. Glad you enjoyed it!

Sweet playing on this. I wish I could finger pick like that. I also have a version on YouTube with vocals, but I sure can't play like that.

Great !!!

[wbross01]

Well, I sure can't sing at all so I have to make up for it somehow. Thanks for the kind words!

[snowandwater]

That's a really great version of this song. Any chance you'd be willing to tab it out and email it to me? I have an old friend that would really enjoy hearing it played. Awesome job.

Most impressive. Blew me away and I will try to learn some of it but man did that bring back memories of, well many years ago. Thanks

Thanks, a very beautiful rendition of a great song! I really miss the old days of real instruments (not midi samples) and real vocals (not computer processed rubbish) . . . It's getting more and more difficult to find real "music" in the music stores.

[tiatrips]

That was incredible playing, sir. Nicely done.

[mnnorthcountrygirl1]

This is absolutely beautiful! Cannot wait to check out more of your music.
