Default "A Morning Song"

I recorded this, a song by Peter Jansen called, "A Morning Song". I never tire of listening to this lovely song, so I decided to learn to play it. I also chose this one because it challenged me and stretched my playing abilities a bit further. I hope you enjoy:



"A Morning Song"

Rick all the slide ins and hammer ons really add to the beauty of this. The guitar sounds just lovely also. This really made my night!

Thanks Ed!

I still consider this a work in progress, but this is the first single take recording that I thought was acceptable for sharing.

Thanks! The tab did not include all the slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs, etc. I had to listen carefully to the original recording for those little embellishments.

Lovely playing Rick.

Really enjoyed this - peaceful and relaxing.

Can you share how you recorded and a little about the processing you did?
