I hadn’t heard of Townes Van Zandt before, I was introduced to him by my guitar teacher, and wow am I blown away! This song is just so beautiful in its simplicity - this is me trying to capture some of its beauty. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!!
Abhishek!
Lovely rendition of a lovely song!
I recognized it from the first bar - Emmylou Harris performed that song with Don Williams years ago… my favorite of their collaborations!!!
I especially enjoyed the fingerpicking & your tasteful use of hammer-ons!!! Very well done!!!
Thoroughly enjoyable post!!! Thank you gor sharing!!!
Thats one of my favorite versions of the song, their harmonies work so beautifully. Thank you so much for your kind words It makes me so happy that you enjoyed it and I get to share this with this community.
I’m working on a “April come she will” cover, hopefully should be up today
Lovely all around (picking and singing)! TvZ is my favourite songwriter and this song is a particular favourite of mine. Are you going to learn some more of his songs?
I’ve heard this song before Abhishek, you did a great job of it, both playing and singing. Very nice. Great job on the solo too. Was this your own version/your own finger picking with the chords?
Thank you so much for your kind words. The version was inspired by “George Clements” on Youtube (check him out, you won’t be disappointed). I changed a couple of chords and the interlude/solo was my own, yes
My gosh, after hearing you improvised the solo, I had to go back and listen/watch again. Just beautifully done sir. Amazing. Let us all know when your first album comes out (or where to get it if it already did)
Wow you really are too kind! I don’t know about albums haha, maybe someday? A man can dream I guess. I did just post a cover of April come she will, I’d really appreciate your feedback!
