Buc McMaster Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 So I've played the tune perhaps 30 or more times now and the character has changed, as things tend to do with repeating. Gentler, more controlled, better phrasing, simpler arrangement.....getting closer to what I want this one to be. This is a "first take", first song of the day video.........couple cups of coffee, three or four cigarettes, uncase the guitar and turn on the camera. I often find that the first thing I sing in the morning is different from previous efforts in a good way. I think this delivery is more in line with the mood of the song......... Harlan Alive Sure like to hear some others tackle this one. It's quite simple on the guitar and melody is easy.......come on, ye songsters of the forum!

kelly campbell Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Yeah I love it as well, I had never heard it before now. Great job Buc. This one is kinda close to home for me as my family is from not very far from Harlan, I have been there a few times. Great song Buc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
