Default Hello Out There #2

I was trying to figure out what song to post next. This is called "Taking You With Me." It's just guitar and vocal. Thanks for listening.

Thanks Tommy. Much appreciated! I did the singing and playing, but I can't take credit for the recording because it was done in a studio. The other song/video I posted I did record here in my home.

I was going to say “two out of three ain’t bad”, but then I went back and listened again to the other video and have to say that it sounds just as good as this one. So now you have mad skills!

Hi Karen, as everyone has said that was really nice to hear. It prompted me to visit your web site and spend a while there. I notice the John Lennon quote in your signature but what's the story behind the Lennon signature on your page?

Fred.

Not only can you sing, you can play the guitar quite well! This is awesome!

What a sweet song and well done!

Hey Karen
The clarity and depth to your singing voice is just wonderful. I will bet there is a lot in reserve, not used in this particular song. Guitar skills are neat and precise. The recording is great all around. Tom the moderator called you the “real deal” and he’s not wrong. Really nicely done.
