Two things:

1-Is that you singing?

2-Bored??? There so much when you have the love of music. I am going back to the songs that I played 20, 30 years ago; that excites me.

Donny, I know you have imagination.
John C,

John C,


John why would you ask If that is me singing?
of course it is silly.
I can sing these tunes in my sleep
after so many years..

thanx for listening..

maybe with this down time I'd like to try a live version
using a BB Med or maybe a Bolero style on the T4..
well see..

Nicely done. A technical question- I didn't hear a strong baseline. Is it the recording, or maybe my playback?

here made me depressed and now I have lost my musical inspiration sorry.
so to hell with it.

Oh jeez, I really hope you get the sympathy (and attention) you're so desperately seeking. Go take a nap. We'll try to survive until you get your inspiration back. In the meantime, might as well blame me for the virus too, if it makes you feel better. Donny, you really don't have to work so hard to try to turn people against me. The ones that like me will likely continue and the ones that don't really don't need your help.

Mel I'm glad you could listen....
yes I agree the T4 has a really amazing richness to it's sounds.
The SA Concert Guitar had a slide to it that really adapts to your
playing...

Thank you

Sorry I'm just getting to this, Donny. Both renditions sound great, your vocals seem to be holding up well, and I'm looking forward to hearing more, especially on the T4.
