Thanks Thomas, much obliged. I know we’re getting on a bit; I am 71, but still working on my playing. I am still learning and improving. Love this old song too. Keep it up 👌
This is why I love RUclips. There's always a chance that you'll run across a video like this very talented gentleman. A very good rendition of one of my favorite songs from my younger years. Thank you, Mr. Simpkins. ~ Stay healthy, happy, and safe.~
I was once asked by a friend what were my five favorite songs. After many hours of coming to an answer, Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying was on the list. Your cover is very special. Your singing and playing are superb and heart felt. Thank you.
Transported me back to another time, listening to this on my older sisters transistor radio here in Australia mid 60’s and I’m pretty sure you would have been listening to it on the other side of the world at the same time. Magical how music transcends time and space. Thanks Ian for the beautiful rendition of a true classic.✌🏾
Sound just like Jerry and the pacemakers. I love your rhythm style. You also have a beautiful, singing voice. I would say you are an excellent guitarist, and a beautiful vocalist. I’m a solo instrumental guitarist. But I like to hear people saying what a beautiful video. Have a great night love it.❤️❤️🎸😎😁👍🏼👍🏼
I always loved this song from Gerry Marsden,and your interpretation is quite beautiful,with excellent vocals and guitar accompaniment.Ironically I found this excellent version whilst searching for the Terry Reid version.The pair are now my favourite covers of this lovely song ! Many thanks.
This song is a great song and I love ❤ music and song lyrics and reminds me of loved ones that are no longer here thanks Ian was always partial to this one
Hearing your accent (to my American ear) when speaking and then how smooth and clear it became when singing -- wow. That was gorgeous. Great tribute. I didn't know he passed. Sort of a double pang. RIP to him and you keep singing. Makes me want to pick up my guitar and give it a go.
Like this? Then please subscribe. Thanks.
This guy's really good I could listen to him all day
Thanks Glenn🙏
Us older folks, like fine wine, get better with age. Great job Ian! I'm 66 and still singing and playing. You are great inspiration sir.
Thank you. 🙏
Soulful. Visceral. Gerry Marsden would be so pleased.
Thanks Jack, much appreciated.
Absolutely beautiful !!! What an inspiration !!! I'm 69, playing since about 14. Been playing this in our shows.
Thanks Thomas, much obliged. I know we’re getting on a bit; I am 71, but still working on my playing. I am still learning and improving. Love this old song too. Keep it up 👌
