Default Smokey Robinson - Tracks of My Tears (my take)

Hope ya'll like this take on Smokey's classic - from 1965!

I think Motown works perfectly with the classical guitar... Let me know if you like it!

Wow......VERY nicely done, and you really took advantage of the tonal range of the classical guitar in your playing. I thoroughly enjoyed that.

Thank you for sharing it.

I really enjoyed this one. Motown fingerstyle. The best. Many of these songs have such lovely melodies on top of basic chord changes.
