Damn - a 2 week holiday really leaves a lot of catching up to do!

I love what you've done with this. Beautiful playing and a very cool vocal treatment. Folk is a good style for this song, as the poster suggests a strange and distant London where a wandering minstrel might play it like this. Highly original and highly creative. Love it.

I thought i commented on this?

This is absolutely great Fuzzface. I love that acoustic tone. It`s perfect for the way you transformed this into your own. Your voice sounds great.

Top notch excellent work overall, and i also learned about how the song came to be.  ;D

Yes here is a slice of wacky goodness.  Its got flavor and grooves along in a sorta strange lurching way.  I like what you have done here Fuzz.

OTD from 13 years ago.

Great version and fascinating backstory from 64.

Really miss Trevor's contributions
