Default Free Fallin'

Feeling a little sad last night so I sat down at the piano and did this a little differently... Rest in Peace, Tom.

Nice tribute J.R.

Well done, sad and respectful, while true to TP.

Sounds great.

My favorite TP era was Traveling Wilburys.

A beautiful, moving version, J.R.

Left me with a lump in the throat, and I think it's gonna take me a good while to realize that one of our greatest singer songwriters ever has left us so suddenly...

RIP, Tom...
