Wow! I don't have words. Just wow!
Unbelievable. As a musician I understand the practice and talent to pull that off. It’s a shame that the average person doesn’t understand and there is no market for this type of playing. You are unbelievable.

Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight 'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these final hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
Gorgeous
All that space that you leave, all that goes unaddressed and implied - absolutely killin'! There's a real maturity in your playing.

beautiful! i really want arrangement :/
Beautiful arrangement. Fantastic playing. Your non-rushed pace and perfect pauses really show how seasoned you are. You're so good at the technical that you can focus on playing emotionally which this song deserves. Amazing. Is this standard tuning or an open tuning? Thank you for this significant musical contribution my friend.

Thanks very much for your kind words :) The tuning is mostly standard, however the low E string has been tuned to C
Lovely. A great demonstration of so many techniques--but disappointed there was no blues 😊. Photography great as well.
Love it! I always appreciate when someone can get beyond the typical boxy guitar arrangement. You nailed it beautifully here, so I’ll check out more of your stuff. Curious what you use to pickup the percussion sounds or were they cleaned up in post? I remember reading about Michael Hedges’ rig with multiple pickups ( sunrise, piezo and a cducer I think) that he blended to taste. Best, Jamie

Hey, Thanks for your kind words. The audio actually comes mainly from a condenser mic rather than the pickup, I find that gives a better overall :)

@@RichardBurrellMusic Interesting. I always prefer mics with acoustic as well, but always curious how others capture that percussive style. If the end result is musical is doesn't really matter, but recording is my profession, so I'm always looking to learn new methods. You and your engineer did a stellar job!
Do you have a tab for the arrangement? Thx. Lovely version.
