A simple original tune with BB doing the Nylon guitar & 12-string guitar chords - I added the electric guitar melody, the piano and the mandolin! Recorded in Logic Pro X. Carl

Thanks so much Graham - I just popped BG's original demo chords with ac & 12-str guitars into Logic and played my el guitar over the top a few times, this little tune somehow appeared! Added the piano and mandolin this morning and messed about with the end result - really chuffed you like it, keep taking the Vit C against 'the virus' and other nasties!!
Best regards, Carl

Word 'celtic' always raises my interest, definitely has a very nice Celtic mood, beautiful melody in a beautiful chording - I can imagine that melody sung by a female singer... Very good playing, the mandolin adds another enjoyable layer.

Very many thanks for your very nice comment Janne - around 50 years ago I spent 6 months in Scotland, maybe some celtic influence got stuck to me? Glad you like it!! Best, Carl

Wow - stunning work on this. It flows gorgeously and has a haunting quality to it. Very lush, some fantastic chords, and very good playing.

Thanks for sharing smile

Very well done, Carl. A beautiful melody played over the perfect blanket of supporting instruments. Man, the guitar is wonderful, but that mandolin really brings it to the next level.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Marty, the el guitar sound is a combination of playing with my bare fingers (no pick) and going through a hand-wired valve amp - the mandolin of course was played with a pick, still getting to grips with the fast tremolo lines!
Delighted you like my tune, thanks very much for your super comment!
All the best, Carl

This is outstanding. Your mix was spot on, as were the backing tracks. But your guitar and mandolin took it over the top. You have mastered both instruments.

Very nice instrumental/song and performance on all the instruments. It has a touch of "House of Rising Sun" but then sound original as well....familiar & new.

Thanks for sharing.
