Wow! Thanks so much. Still don’t know what I did.
Mostly want to know how it sounds to others. Honesty is best, but if it’s bad, sometimes it’s alright to lie. I lay out now and then but I have always wondered what others that play think about the music. Be kind. I am old and fragile…..

My bad. What I was trying to do was solicit comments rather than simply posting a song. Wondering what folks who are actually good at this music stuff think.
Should I make changes? Or sell my stuff?

I don't play anything of the sort, but exactly what is this music according to you? The title suggests it's blues and while technically that may be true I must say it sounds more like an English (or Irish?) traditional song to me.

Ah, the Donovan song, a bit rearranged. (Which is fine by me, I never play a song exactly like the original if I can help it.)

Singing and playing sound quite good. Is there more than one guitar part on this?

There was a bit of electric mixed in there.
Not everyone knows this tune. No has ever recognized it that I was aware of. I don’t think the younger crowd knows this stuff exists…….

I had never heard the song, but I really like your version. Good job!

Well, it took me a good while to recognize it, actually - but I only count as younger in comparison to, say, Ramblin' Jack Elliott.

The electric blends in well, nearly subliminally.
