Topic: An old recording that I cherish..."Behind Blue Eyes" w/ friend on guit

I cherish this because it captures a moment, not because it is a great version. It is unrehearsed and played in the moment.

Back in 1986 I took a tape recorder to my friend Paul's house and we recorded this impromptu cover, with Paul playing guitar
and me singing, in his living room....right before this we played Pete Townshend's solo acoustic demo from "Scoop" on the
record player and Paul figured it out by ear...then we recorded this in one take.....you can hear Paul singing in the background too.

Great sound there.  I also enjoyed it.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
