Don

Thank you Don!

I really appreciate your taking time to watch and comment! Much appreciated!

I had to look up "Randy Rainbow." I had no idea who that is or was.

Thank you for your kind words, Don! It was a fun project!

I hope you are doing well!

Hi Bill!

Thank you so much for your enthusiastic and supportive comments! They are greatly appreciated! I'm so pleased that you like this cover!

I had to smile at the reference to the eye candy. I do agree, they are lovely guitars, and I know I'm very fortunate to have them.

Thank you, Bill, for all your kind words!

I am doing okay and do look forward to the Christmas season. I hope you and your wife are well, Bill!

Hi Steve,

What a pleasure to hear from you! Thank you for your kind words!

I really wanted to hear both the acoustic guitar and the electric guitar together as they are on the original recording, so I really felt I had to add those other parts to get what I wanted. The tempo is about 113 bpm, so pretty relaxed, and that helps things look nice and easy since the tempo is so easy.

I am really pleased that you felt this came out well, Steve! Thank you very much for taking time to listen and for your kind comments!

I hope all is well for you and that you enjoy the coming Christmas season.

Hi Tom!

Thank you very much! Yes, I, too, have always loved this song. Haunting, I think, really is the right word. I imagine I have a similar attachment to this song as you do! As a result it really was fun working on this.

I'm so pleased that you felt this came across well, Tom! Thank you very much for your kind words! I hope you are doing well!

Bill

Thank you so much, Bill!

I'm so very pleased that you thought this came out well! It is a haunting, plaintive song, for sure! And I have always felt the same as you about the electric guitar part, which is why I wanted to do a multi-track recording of this. I just couldn't see bothering with this as a cover if I was just going to do the acoustic guitar part.

Thank you for your kind words, Bill. They are greatly appreciated!

I hope all is well for you and your family, Bill! Take care!

No need to worry whether or not you've done the song justice, you've certainly nailed another one Glenn. One of my favorite things about your renditions is the attention to detail, which was very much obvious on this song.

Very nice, Glenn! I always enjoy the production value of your videos, puts my simple lyric videos to shame.
