I always loved this haunting tune.
Based somewhat loosely on a version by Robin Bullock.

Sorry, I just had to add the old English bells.

Wishing everyone a blessed Thanksgiving and Christmas,
Thank you for listening,

Cool approach William. I recognized the tune, but never on a Acoustic guitar like this. Like it! Best! Sage

Lovely guitar playing, and amazing sound from your Collings.
The bells are critical party of this music.
Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!
Simply beautiful.

Thanks folks.
The wife said it was a weird view (of the top of my head), so I promised her I would redo it

I was not thinking about that when I set up the camera, but I guess she's right.
Dear administrator - could you please delete my OP for this thread? I will redo the recording and post again. Thanks

Are you sure, Bill? The recording (both audio and video) are fine to me as-is. I was just about to comment that I liked it.

OK, thanks Jeremy. Truth is, I love playing and recording again, but hate being on video. When my wife said that the video was not good, that's all it took for me to agree to remove it.
Anyway, I'll just repost and keep it here.......
