This is one of my very favorite songs.  Finally re-arranged it for open tuning after 20 years.  Better late than never, eh?  Hope you folks like it.  DD

So sweet.

What a fantastic interpretation. The tone of the instruments is superb, warm and rich, they compliment your vocals superbly.

Magic.

WOW. That was worth the wait, this is so good Geo. I can tell you put your heart into this arrangement, the tone is incredible from the National, I had to call my wife over to listen to it as well, and she said it sounded so good, she listened to it twice in a row.

Classicist Geo does Dire Straits?  Hel yeah, and very well.

Definitely a different tone and I like it a lot.  Well done Geo.
