Ahhhhh superb.  This is just beautiful,  I don't think I have heard your voice any better Geir.  This Woodstock-fest is going to fill up my Ipod with marvelous covers like you and Greeny just put up.  I need to go get a Red Ale, whew.  Marvelous.

I am a sucker for acoustic guitar - and after so many years of doing the 12 string find it difficult to play anything but acoustic.  Lets see what I can contibute to the Woodstock cause - Enjoyed the arrangement very much!

I think you held your own just fine!! But you're one of the few that could do it, though!! :D

Me too - probably because I have no business playing acoustic!! :D After hearing you and Greeny, I'll probably be on overload once I get to BB.

You guys are awesome!!

Again I am totally amazed the version I heard has a man and a woman.  Would have been a great collab, but you both did an amazing job!!  I don't know how I am going to keep up with the posts, much less try anything. lOL

This is fantastic, Geir. You really nailed the way Tim Hardin plays it. It's fingerpicked, right? Much better playing than my self-taught approximation with a plectrum. And you sing it beautifully. As T says, with real emotion. I actually prefer yours to mine (but don't tell anyone, lol).
