That was so smooth Michael. Lovely melody and the double stops and bends were spot on. Your spaces made it sound like a conversation.

Great rendition -very melodic

Awesome work Michael, not predictable at all.

That was very pretty Michael. The double stops, slides, and bends all added to the smoothness.

I remember that ep115. Actually its in my bookmark. AKA To do list. I liked the way you pulled it off. Great work.

Great submission Michael.
Relaxing and mellow.
Love the long spaces.

That worked like a charm, Michael. Strangely enough, I also considered using that backing track. I thought the contrast in sound from the piano vs guitar would offer many good opportunities for leaving space. And you just proved that to be true. Well played!

Well chosen track. Piano and acoustic guitar go together beautifully! Love these double stops, bends and dreamy melodic lines. I like your phrasing. Very well done, Michael.

A really sweet combination of piano and guitar. The silences every now and then were just what was needed.

Lovely, Michael.
My favourite lick was at about 2:15 where you used the fuller major scale, something I am trying to do more of lately.
EP 115 was one of my first AM submissions. In the early days Brian would repost a few videos on his Facebook page. I got something like 1,500 views and felt like a star😊.

What a wonderful composition, Michael. The two instruments harmonize absolutely perfectly.

Thank you very much, Werner

Micheal that was awesome great melodic submission really well done!!!

Great take on this lesson, Michael. The piano and acoustic make a perfect duet. And your playing brings out the best in this track.

Great job Michel very nice peaceful playing and that Acoustic sounds amazing!

You blend in beautifully with the backing track, Michael, and create such lovely melodies that they just make you melt. And the space you leave makes them shine even more. Very musical!

Fantastic Michael. Mellow and yet uplifting at the same time. Your melody had plenty of space to breathe.

Perfect pick, Michael – one of my most inspirational backing tracks by Brian – and I knew you would come up with something equally beautiful and sweet sounding to complement that. Always impressed by your relaxed fretboard navigation, something I strive for. The free soft light effect gave it a romantic feel, I often use the natural backlight on purpose like that to soften the lines. That might have been a cool accidental effect but your ability to charm us with your melodies is definitely a deliberate skill!

I agree with the others, the piano track goes so well with your acoustic , a fine choice digging that one out of the archives.
Sweet melody you created with lots of space letting those phrases stand out .

Michael, the sun is always shining over your shoulder.😀 I think you enjoyed working this out. It was beautifully melodic, the tonal qualities between guitar and piano matched superbly and it resulted in a nice composition. Great find for the backing track. I love taking a deep dive into Brian’s library of stuff and finding something like this. You demonstrated a nice command of the fretboard here. Job well done.

John

Excellent composition, Michael. Very soulful and great playing. Great melody. Skillfully executed and in the pocket all the way!
