Here is my attempt at Heart of Gold, Neil Young.  Hit a few bum notes singing as I am still focusing on learning guitar and the little tricky bits (well tricky for me lol).  Hoping to get a chance to re-record this one but with it bucketing down tonight, my recorder is picking up all the rain noises, so no more recording tonight.  A busy week ahead for me, so not sure I will get another chance to record it, so decided to put this up anyway.

A great song written by you Jim, there are heaps of lines in your song that are really descriptive.  Well written, and can definitely visual the scene that caused you to write the song.

lol, now that brought a smile to my face reading that   Great stuff Phill

arkady .... that was so good.  I listened a couple of times to it and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I didn't think it was rough at all.   It took my imagineation away to where  I could imagine people dancing to that in a garden in that lovely old fashioned style of Royalty back in the day where they would curtsy and bow before joining hands and proceeding to gently dance around the garden.  So nice, well done.

Hi Diana, welcome to Chordie, lovely to see another lady join us on here

Here is my cover of Captain Kennedy by Neil Young.
I ended up singing it alot faster than the original version by Neil Young, simply because I couldn`t even begin to play it like Neil does let alone sing it like him.  I hunted high and low to find the fantastic tabbing/ picking he uses for the intro and outro and in fact through out the song but to no avail.  So after singing it in various styles, including in a slow haunting style which I liked, I realised without the awesome tabbing Neil does, it just didn't sound right with the strum I was using..... so decided to make it my own version and faster ................ AND still learning guitar.

Well written TF. 
The  Media and its information or misinformation these days really provides speakers, writers, poets, songwriters a full menu of choice morsels to choose from ........... handed  to us on a platter it seems ..... for those so inclined to speak, sing and write.

landav5 thanks for the suggestion and great to see you join in here    Just in case your interested, this month of June which if you look in FSOTM for June, we are doing covers of songs such as this about Captains etc.  If your into doing covers, we would love to hear you do a cover of this song in that thread
