        I got a burst of energy the past two weeks. Here’s another in the spirit of ‘Blue Eyes Cryin’ in the Rain’. Very pretty and wasn’t too difficult to learn. I did two passes. Still some bumps in the road, but working them out. Hope you enjoy.

          Nicely played John and round 2 fitted in well. It was great to hear the natural sound of your Martin.

            Another sweet one, John. You sure do make that Martin sound wonderful. Technique, tone, energy, vibe are all spot-on. Nicely done.

              I reckon you should be out on the back porch playing here John. Definitely a country acoustic beauty and you played it a treat. Thanks for sharing. All the best! 😎🎸😎

                You can always feel and hear when a performance has been put together with a lot of hard work and joy. Wonderful music.

                    What a great sound out of that Martin.

                    I only heard colour not bumps my friend.

                    Very nicely done I enjoyed the heck out of it.

                      Love your acoustic picking, my friend. Send some of that energy northward.

                        Brilliantly strummed and flat-picked John! Like this relaxed vibe country music, perfect for listening near the fire in winter or for a campfire in summer. Very well played, I didn’t ear bumps but mellow melodies!

                            That’s some great front porch picking, John. It’s begging for some sad lyrics.
