It has been a pleasure to interact with such a fine gentleman.
Thank you for all of your posts and especially the flying fingers - always a cool thing to view.
Best wishes and prayers to you my friend,
Jim

exactly what Phill said...

time changes many things including perspectives and meanings.... doesn't mean that they didn't have value ---- then or now.

keep it coming - it's all good stuff.

Song was Everybody Hurts, not Superman - although both songs are fantastic.

I am sorry for the loss you experienced and the pain that lingers.

That's very good Scott, as well as very tragically sad.

CG- he is really good - I like that style of playing.

Fave of the bunch was nobody home, but all were excellent.

the one comment on the kiling the blues song said  " Chris introduced the song once by telling the story of performing it live and having someone come up to him afterwards and say something along the lines of, "I don't think I have ever heard that song performed more to my liking."  Chris responded - saying  that he didn't write it and that it was written by Roly Salley, to which the commenter responded, "I know, that's me."

Thanks for sharing it.

No worries - I would assume musically there would be changes b/c I'm pretty limited in my guitar playing - not really a musician like all of you good fellows and ladies on here.

speakng of that  -  hmmmmm    we have not heard from our good friend Jan from NZ of late .     

Thanks Graham - I look forward to hearing how you play it.

Phill  Thanks   - it was based on a true story of my friend - not me. 

CG and Grah  Thank you for the very kind words.
It's one of those songs in my head that sounds beautiful - but when I play it and sing - loses a lot !

Hopefully someone on here will give it a go.  smile

Thanks again my friends.

Thanks TF

I was just thinking about how hard it is for someone to give their heart completely a second time when I wrote it..

Now if only I could actually sing and play  what I write smile
Thank you again for your kind words.

Guitar slapping -  I have no clue how to do so but it adds to his performance.  Quite a unique way to play guitar.
It seems strange to me ( but I don't much about playing guitar) to see both hands playing on the neck as well.

Very smooth !
These guys are really polished musicians and it appears that they are enjoying what they play.
I quite agree - it has a jazzy tone to it.

Thanks for sharing TF.

THAT IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER  WRITTEN HERE ON CHORDIE IN MY HUMBLE OPINION RUSSELL !

Short, to the point, clear message, perfect rhyme scheme.
Put that together with a musician who is talented and right in his wheel house bc he is playing what he loves - and you've got a fantastic song production !



Superbly done Russell - if this was put out by a famous band it would go high on the charts !

Thanks for sharing it.
