I gleaned most of this arrangement from Dan Holloway. I hope you enjoy it.

Very pretty arrangement, Mike, and performed very well. I hope you get to keep this video up...the Eagles (Don Henley in particular) are pretty aggressive about issuing takedown notices if they catch their stuff on YouTube (I think GlenWillow can attest to that as well. His excellent cover of this song was taken down, if I recall correctly), which is a real shame.

Thank you for the notice. I don't think Don Henley would ever get around to my youtube channel but if he does I will take it down.

One would think they wouldn't care about us trading tunes on an acoustic guitar forum, but they apparently do. Both GlennWillow's cover and Gerhard Gschossmann's (both posted here in Show and Tell) were blocked from viewing in the USA. My own version of it from a couple of years ago, which only had about 20 views, got a takedown notice as well. I think there must be some algorithm that trolls YouTube and reports back to UPMG.

Either way, I really enjoyed your finger style cover of it!

Nice job Mike!

I'm puzzled about the Eagles asking people to take covers down that aren't income producing.

Are we allowed to sing along with our cds?

Thanks JM for your comments.

It's their right to take it down if they want but why? I'm a retired 66 year old who still loves music & enjoys it. I haven't earned money playing music since the 80's and even that was very little. It's the love of music & the joy it brings that attracts most of us to it. I believe that most everyone on this forum would agree. Just look at the work Glenn Willow puts into his videos. I won't stop playing guitar until I physically can't. I appreciate everyone of you for sharing your talents and inspiring each other to keep at it - so keep at it.

Mike

Thank you Barry. That's a very interesting question - sing along!

I enjoyed that quite a bit, nice!!

If YouTube didn't flag the song and claim copyright after you posted it you are probably fine. When I've posted covers, it's almost instantaneous when YouTube will claim copyright...which I don't care about since I'm not looking to get revenue from covers anyway.

Yeah, from what i've heard, Eagles stuff gets taken down often. This arrangement may be different enough that it won't trigger the detection algorithm.

I agree. If isn't down by now then it probably won't be.

Thanks for your comments.
