This , dare I say it is one of your best songs Jim I've heard to date , it's just about got the lot as far as I'm concerned , & please don't tell me that you are using that little pink toy guitar to make that excellent guitar sound , cus my Taylor is going out of the window if it is , I love the feeling you have managed to achieve with the guitar vox and lyric , fabulous song born out of tragedy

It's always hard for me to comment on these songs that are born out of such tragic events but they are always full of emotion from the writer and this one hits home,hard. A mournfull haunting tune that paints a picture in your head that today is an all too familiar scene. Great song jim,tragic story.

was my £10 car boot sale encore with capo on 5th fret i think. rob.

went up the hills today, to clear the cobwebs.

so hopefully next one will be a bit more upbeat.

in pic below taken today, my jacket was removed for cosmetic purposes, ;D ;D

despite appearances pic was taken this afternoon. sun was splitting the sky but it was baltic (cold).

As musicians, we are lucky to be able to express our feelings and deal with tragedy through our music.

Thanks for sharing a very well done, emotional song Jim.
Fantastic sound for a $10 guitar also. Almost sounds like Zeppelin man.

P.S. - very cool pic too.
It ain't pretty being easy.

Okay to Cover
