Traveler - November 2022 - Travis Tritt, George Strait, Garth Brooks, Chris Stapleton, John Prine, Pink Floyd, Colter Wall & more

RE: Amarillo By Morning—George Strait
Great job again Travis. I agree with the others that country music is a great choice for you. I have been with Justin guitar about the same length of time, 2 years or so. It made more sense to learn guitar when everyone was locked down for COVID than be depressed doing nothing. After only 2 years you are in a great place in your journey.

Thank you! I have a lot of friends who just watched television and movies throughout the rough COVID days. I’m so glad that I came out with a skill that I love!

Hey Travis, thank you for taking that leap to the community and posting your recordings. That’s three songs I’ve never heard before I’ve been introduced to today and I enjoyed them.

I didn’t spend very much time trying to learn this song. Generally I like to play something for a couple weeks before I record it. Please let me know what you think!

I love the gravel in the lower registers of your voice! Really brings out the emotion of the song. I’m a huge JP fan - maybe I’ll post myself playing one of his songs. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you! I consider Prine one of the greatest song writers, ever. Jam away!!

Pink Floyd can be tough to cover as a solo artist. They have so much other stuff going on in every song. Ha!

Many of you probably haven’t heard of Colter Wall, but he is one of my favorite artists right now. I play a lot of his songs. I aspire to play better without a pick partially because of the way he plays without one.

Bravo, Travis. You are right, never heard of Colter Wall. Enjoyed your rendition and the original, appreciate the sharing.

Thank you! He is part of the modern underground outlaw country brand that I seem to be spiraling towards.

Love the energy and dynamics in this performance, Travis, the gusto and growl in the vocal.

I see you’ve been enthusiastic in posting up recordings in AVOYP. The Community is now so active that you may get more people watching and commenting if you spread the posting out a bit. And perhaps strike more balance in sharing your own recordings with the offering of feedback or just encouragement to other posters.
