            That’s a great song and you know how to play it well at the Lounge.

            Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

              Excellent work Clarke. Good to see you back on the forum sharing your talent. Very enjoyable performance. Inspiring also. Condolences on your loss, remember the many musical moments you both shared with us. 🙏

                  That’s a fine take on this classic, love those fills and embellishments.

                    Your performances put a big smile on my face, Clarke. Keep them coming.
                    Your rhythm fills are terrific. I’d love a lesson on some of your favourites. Brian never discourages members teaching members.

                      Wonderful, poignant and emotional Clarke. Waylon would be proud.

                        Excellent work Clarke. As with your previous post, I love the way you throw in those guitar fillers so seamlessly with the song. Great playing.

                          Great take on this “good timing” song, Clarke. You had me singing along with you. Playing those fills so smoothly while singing is a real talent. 🎶 🎸

                            Excellent version of a Waylon classic Clarke (and a beautiful tribute to Phyllis). You’ve got the Waylon voice, the steady as a rock rhythmic drive and the fills down like a pro. Thanks for sharing with us all. All the best! 😎🎸😎

                              Nice one Clarke. Your timing was great and the fills perfect. Your vocals are a good match for this song.

                                        Clarke man just how I remember it.
                                        Awesome vocals.
                                        Nice fills playing.
                                        Man you just sent me back from where I came from.
                                        We want more.

                                          Just played the Outlaws CD in the car the other day. I love this tune!

                                          Nice job!
