Default "A Waltz for November" Original 12 string

Hi folks....and Happy Thanksgiving!

This one is from the archives, but I like to sometimes bring it out in November. As I recall, I wanted to do something on the 12 string in a waltz type style and this is what came out! A little rain on the skylight in there to add to the moment! lol!
Played on the Martin D12-20, from the CD "Sounds from the Heart" standard tuning, capo #2 I believe.
Hope you enjoy the day and the season!
Fred

Fred,

Listened to a waltz for Nov and the other one on rain (yeah, can't remember what I did two minutes ago!)....very well played and a pleasure to listen to.

Just recently started to listen to some of the songs posted by forum members and am amazed at the talent on this forum.

Again, well done and thanks for posting.

Thank you DC!
This was done on a Zoom H4n, with external condenser mics. Mix and Master done by my engineer for the CD project.
Thanks for taking a listen!! Best,
Fred

Thanks so much, John!! Glad you enjoyed these two!! On AGF I tend to change my signature with my tunes every week or two. I hope you'll find others to your liking as well. All originals unless otherwise noted. Thanks again!
Fred

Hi Fred!

That is a delightful piece! Your Martin 12-string sounds almost magical! Beautifully done! A real pleasure to listen to!

Wonderful composition, Fred. It’s great to hear you in standard tuning and that 12 string sounds fantastic.

Larry, Glenn, Bob.....thank you guys!! I'm really pleased you were able to listen and write back. The 'ol Martin 12 is quite the beast and while not played too too often, when you want that sound, I'm sure glad it's there!
Hoping you all had a nice T'Day.....wishing you all the best for this holiday season! Thanks again,
Fred
