You joined on Christmas Day? What a nice present to yourself! Congratulations on competing your first Taciversary. May your next year be full of musical goodness.

I saw John Denver once in concert on Ft. Worth. Great show. He was born in New Mexico as was I and went to Texas Tech until he dropped out to pursue his music. Also great tribute to his first wife. Thanks for sharing your rendition.
Have a terrific 2026.

Good testimony. Good rendition. Keep that thought past Ephiphone. May you continue to have an enriching guitar journey in 2026.

Thanks. You know you got me started down the Holly Jolly Christmas posting trail. It’s been fun. So thanks again

Nice rendition. I have a question. What were your considerations in deciding to use a Capo on Second Fret in an instrumental? I don’t usually use one unless I’m playing with others or needing to get vocals in range. Not critiquing but might learn something better.

What a great thread! I ebb and flow. With the flow, it is important to MY FUN that I have a few back pocket songs to play. But it doesn’t have to be many. I have experienced few people really want to hear a full set of songs, just one or two they can relate to and connect with you. (Tony’s Benchmark songs can do that.) And so, then I am a guitar player. If then there is genuine interest you can do a few more songs that you like and feel good about. With the ebb, it is important to MY PSYCHE to just pick up my six-string friend and play some notes or phrases or chords or comfort and express my mood. And so, then I realize I am a guitar player with no comparison thinking or audience other than myself and that is enough.

Thank you. My voice cracking also cracked me up. If I weren’t so lazy, I would go back and re-record, but my point is enjoyment and not perfection. There are way better people than me that do these songs, but not many have more fun.

I am not sure but it was the best investment (next to actually owning a guitar and a guitar stand to keep the guitar handy) that I have made on my guitar journey. I’m sure someone will tell you.

You guys are always coming up with a creative take. Thanks… and yes, an English Literature minor knows Dylan Thomas.

Ok. I bit. Book is on order. I also like James Shipway’s “No Bull” books as a supplement to my FBW.

She has always been “Jane” (from Endor) when you need her. She has helped me several times.

Pulled from the Merle Haggard vault. Appreciate that you enjoyed it.
