        I really enjoyed learning this one! Nice stand alone to play while people are mulling around at parties. Played on my GS mini Koa. Thanks Brian!

        Just noticed I typo’d the title. It’s EP277 of course!

          Masterfully played, Derek. Sounded excellent on that Taylor as well. This is a cool lesson for sure. Nicely done!

            That was beautiful Derek, your confidence and attention to the melody’s detail was terrific. Nice tone on that acoustic as well…Congratulations.

              That was a pleasure Derek. You played beautifully, right down to the last note and always in detail. I listened to it again. Great, very well done.

              Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.

                Very nice Derek, seems like a lot of us are drawn to that lesson. You mastered it quickly.

                  This song is actually on my next to do list. Hope I can get it even close to yours. Very nice playing Derek…enjoyed that.

                    Wow, you learned that one fast…great job and you mastered it. I’m working on it now, it requires very subtle playing which is very tough for me, but you made it look easy! Thanks

                      Very nicely done better than mine😀 I know Brian plays it to metronome and me and you so far still have to tickle this one.. certainly a tight little lesson.. Brian is King here with this one so far 😀

                          Really nice rendition, Derek! Great tone and finger technique as well.

                            Wow! I woke up to all these awesome comments. Thanks everyone. I did feel this one more than I have others. Maybe I’ll record again with better equipment than my iPad.

                                Well played Brad, I enjoyed the easy, calm laid-back style. I remember you from a few years ago but since then you’ve slipped under my radar, so I’m pleased to find you again, playing beautifully.
                                Thank you.

                                  I got this playing in the background. A song that’s sound is tailored to your Taylor guitar. loved it man, 10/10.
