I really appreciate that Steve,but mighta  been  a first for that compliment,sir,but thanks nonetheless,lol.Thanks BQ,Im really hung up on playing these Harmonys right now guitar.I feel like I'm cheatin on Nation bringin in all these verboden axes..But the tunings from CBGS introduced me to these instruments again and tone on them just calls out to me .Thanks Jason ,been workin on this one for a few weeks.Glad ya like my Merican music,Richard.This Orkney tuning produced the chords.Then I wrote two stanzas at work,then it kinda worked itself out with a bit of rewriting.

Straightforward Downtown Vinnie! Nice catchy tune full of common sense. Very American music, and very original! Here’s some RS BS, one line is not a song, but it’s a fuse! Cheers!

Great sound and song Vinnie! :>)

Thanks gang,you are all too kind.Yes this is the first recording with this old Harmony Sovereign. It does have tone of it's own.Thanks so much John.I think I really write better with acoustic instruments. I've been writing more with Banjo,mando,and Bazouki and sixers this year. It seems I can develop melodies better with them.My first real singing and writing guitar was a 12 string Takamine. I like guitars with a full sound.

Vinnie, banger or geetar, I love the Pacific NW sound you often git.  Sure got it going here, buddy.  Wonderful.  You are a an artiste.  Kind of a hippie  mofo, artiste, but sure a good one. 

Lots of good stuff coming out of you this past year or so.  The road's in your pocket.
