Default Farewell - John Doan

Hi all

I came across this track a year or so ago played by a very talented Canadian guitarist called Kevin Ramessar - I loved it and started to learn it but struggled with the left hand little finger load and all the hammers and pulls - especially in the open psotion without a capo..

With some time on my hands I decided to have another go a week or so back.

Today, in the midst of storm Dennis here in the UK and my wife away for the weekend, I decided to have a first crack at recording it - despite the fact that I feel I am a week or so away from being ready.

So here it is - along with a slightly strange video - the lighting was poor and so I used it as an opportunity to learn a little more about how my editor works, so excuse the odd effects..

I hope you enjoy it - I find it a very moving piece.
