Some minor variations on this classic melody that I arranged and recorded a few years ago:

I like the use of the harmonics on this in the intro. Perfect for when people are in the Church house waiting for service to start and you don't want distracting music. Really nice take on thus iconic standard

Yes, open harmonics go pretty straight forward when using them in an open tuning that matches the key you are playing in. Sometimes that make them hard to resist using.

Really nice variations on one of my favorite songs. As is often the case, hearing you play is sending me off in search of sheet music to learn a version of the song! Thanks,
