The Moon's A Harsh Mistress
Although Glen Campbell was a favorite of mine, I'd never learned any of his signature songs. Following his recent death, I decided to give one a try and of course had to pick one that he did with an orchestra and that had a key change integral to the song's impact. Well, this is what I came up with, albeit sans orchestra and key change, and in a much lower key than Glen sang it in. Moving it higher loses too much guitar bass.
It was recorded with a ZOOM Q3HD with audio tweeked in Audacity.

Nice job on this very delicate song! You do a very nice job on that classical guitar, too! Sounds good!

That was wonderful. It sounded at home on a nylon string guitar and you played the song soulfully. I'm not a singer so I'd like to find a solo fingerstyle arrangement of this lovely song.

Thanks for the kind words, folks. I'm enjoying my Kenny Hill New World nylon more and more.
