Much obliged, Doug. I'm in a deep dive with Mr. Hurt these days. His tempos are a lot faster than they sound, if that makes sense

Sounds great!

This is one of my favorite songs and you do it justice.

I always thought John played this one faster than it needed to be. I play it at a slower tempo too.

Thanks a lot, Ben. Kind of a quirky tune that really grew on me

One of my favorite MJH tunes. Very nice job, and I liked you stayed authentic to the original playing. I can't sing: lucky I guess that I don't need to learn to sing and play at the same time; unlucky in that my MJH can get a bit monotonous with only the guitar.

Thanks, Chuck! Singing along to Hurt can be tough, because as you know he is always picking some variant of the melody even on the singing verses! Lot's of his tunes sound great without vocals (especially in my case ) and I have been known to overdub them when necessary
