    THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG AND I JUST SPENT THE WHOLE DAY LEARNING IT. YOU ARE WITHOUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE GREATEST MUSICIANS I HAVE EVER SEEN OR HEARD. NOT ONLY YOUR FANTASTIC CLEAN GUITAR PLAYING, BUT YOUR EXQUISITE MELODIC VOICE. WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE WHAT I HAVE LEARNED FROM YOU!

    Would you please, please, please, play the whole song all the way through with all of the verses. Your playing and VOICE are fantastic ! I think for as many hits as you have for this you could get that many more. You really are talented. Please do the whole song :)

    If you think it may or may not be the correct way to play it, then allow me to tell you that it is your correct way to play it.
    Don't ever let anyone tell you that's not the correct way because, this is your arrangement, you wrote it, it's your creation or revision, or improvement of an already great song.
    This is one of the coolest songs written by the "Great James Taylor"
    Your take on it is impeccable!
    Thank you for sharing, I actually like it better than the original.
    I am adding your version to my repertoire. ❤

    I have to perform this song sat nite and I've never played it. I'm playing guitar with another guitarist that is singing it. Now I feel confident that I can play it. Thank you for the tasty lesson.

  • @TheMisterMonkeyman

    Well done, nice mellow style.....teaching and playing/singing. JT songs are notoriously difficult to figure out (he always throws in those crazy/beautiful jazz passing chords) but they are fun to play. I noticed the same thing about searching around for others' TABS when I'm having trouble figuring out a chord. I look on Chordie or some other site and they all seem to have glaring errors that I know are not correct. Sometimes you get lucky and there is a video of the artist playing the song so you can see the chord or someone will make a good, accurate tutorial, like you did here. Thanks for making and uploading it. Music is life. Peace.

  • @joshgalvin3664
    @joshgalvin3664 3 года назад

    Great interpretation! This is very compatible to my style. Moreover, it's a bonus to hear some subtle jazz chords color the inside of my guitar. As a songwriter I am careful to only play a couple of JT songs as our styles are somewhat comparable. However, I will add this obscure JT song to my repertoire at coffee house gigs. May you get paid back a thousand fold for sharing this great rendition. All the best!
