    I did the two verses; edited versions of the solos (picking the notes I wanted, but not replicating David’s more bluesy tone); skipped the bridge; and did the outro. This is an excellent song for acoustic guitar.

    Nice job introducing me to a new song. I was unfamiliar with it but am happy to hear your rendition.

    @albert_d Thank you! Listen to their version; great acoustic guitar duo. They have been around for quite some time and are touring now.

    @Bill_Brown Thanks much! I learn from reading your comments on the daily challenge. My daughter and her husband live in Oley, Pennsylvania. We’ll be heading out there to visit them in May. Keep well Bill.
