Default "The Reach" by Dan Fogelberg - Instrumental Cover

When Glennwillow did such a nice job on his performance of Dan Fogelberg's "The Reach", it inspired me to re-record my instrumental version of the same piece.

This is my arrangement, performed as a finger style instrumental, with no vocals. This is recorded on a Taylor Baritone 8 string, in an open C tuning (on a standard guitar, this would correspond to open G) of A-C-A-C-F#-A. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of view), no live video with this one, as I don't have anything approaching Glenn's production skills!

Hi JM!

Well, that was cool! Very well done! I enjoyed hearing your instrumental version, and I am very pleased that my version of this Dan Fogelberg tune inspired you to dust off one of your pieces and go after it anew!

Well done!

- Glenn

Just sat here and loudly sang the long-ago memorized lyrics along with your fine playing. Good stuff - thanks for posting.
