Need some help here. Guitar / vocal only. I wrote this song awhile back and never was satisfied with the melody, as sung by me, with my limited range. So, I have totally rewritten the arrangement and melody.

This is just a rough demo. As for recording this song in a studio, which I want to do... what do you think? Add a cello? Add an upright bass and cello? Add nothing?

Lastly, please let me know if you do not understand this story. I mean, did you question anything, does it make sense? I gotta get this one as good as I can. Autobiographical. And, perhaps, a song that needs to be sung. You guys are first to hear it!

Recorded on Zoom H4, one track only, so, I cannot adjust individual levels. Again, it's just a rough demo.

Bill, very haunting, very pretty. Really love the folk guitar sound and the overall mood of it. Hope nobody turns it into a discussion about the wood composition of the guitar.

Another gem of a song, Bill. I agree with the others. Your vocal style is worthy of Nashville... and more. Keep it up, Buddy and I'll be able to say, "Yeah, I knew him back then."
