Default Tecumseh Valley cover on old Kay parlor

Townes Van Zandt song I just learnt.Gave my poor old Kay guitar an outing.I bought it off ebay a few years ago.The neck broke off completely when I tuned it up the first time.But I screwed and glued it up and it plays ok for a battered little oldie.
Any comments welcome.

That is so cool! I really like your delivery here, and that old Kay sounds pretty darn good and fits the mood nicely, I think. Nice.

That was very cool, I enjoyed it. You're able to impart a "wariness" to your voice that I admire.

Really nice. Thanks for posting. Always look forward to your posts. Had to revisit a couple of your versions of Tom waits tunes I really like.
