I figured out how to play Into The Mystic on a 4 string CBG. Its not that hard once you retune the guitar. However, it takes a really good voice to do Van Morrison justice and I don't have have it... but I did my best. I also wish I would've had the mic slightly lower. The vocals seem too loud to me. Anyway, I hope you guys like it.

Thanks Bob, AGP, Dave, Derek. Sheesh. You guys sure know how to make a casual player feel good.

Excellent cover Poorness. One of my favorites by Van. I do this one too, on a 3 in DAd and on a std 6  :)

I clipped my tuner to my pad and you were playing D for the first chord. Then C#. Then G for the turnaround. Spot on tuning. Sounds nice Poorness. I’ve discovered this iPad trick tuning finder. Just clip the tuner to the iPad without the earphones on and it will help you jam along in tune.

"Well Done Poorness", nice song from probably my fave Van the Man album, "Moondance" :-)

Kale, you nailed this.  Van Morrison is one of my faves and you did this song justice.  Don't lower that mic.  The mix was great!  If you were nervous then your vocals weren't aware of it.

Thanks Jim & John. I was a bit nervous about posting it because it’s such a song to live up to. Glad you fellas liked it.
