Thanks for listening and for the support, Steve! The simultaneous fingerpicking and singing was hard to get down perfectly, so I'm glad it turned out okay.

@sistersavage -- thanks for the kind words, Tess!

Suits your style well. Tom will be applauding from heaven I reckon. Good job!

Beautiful acoustic song Tom. Great performance!

LOVE your tone! Another beaut.

Love the songs you choose to cover - this really suits your ethereal style - very haunting.

Wonderful and fitting tribute...

Took me about a decade of singing alone in my bedroom before I was brave enough to record anything! I'm glad it sometimes sounds good enough to listen to. Thanks for your kind feedback, Steve!

Really nice sound and feel to this. Wish I could sing as well as you Tom! Great!

The reverb I get in my apt definitely added a nice flavor to this song. I've been playing this tune in one form or another for at least 15 years, so I thought it'd be cool to record it in the new place to see how it sounds in novel surroundings. As always, thanks for the support and kind feedback, Steve!

Atmospheric sound and great vocals Tom! The chord syncing sounds difficult but you made an excellent job of it. Great job!

Had to revisit this one…your best!

Nice song, new to me. Like the live sound and fretboard squeaks, creates a mood and an atmosphere. Great vocals! The chord syncing sounds tricky, but you've made a very special performance here Tom. Excellent!

Thank you for listening and for the kind words, @sistersavage!

Very nicely done. Great energy in that music.

I definitely tried to go for a natural approach and that has its pros and cons. There are a few word salads in this song that I stumbled through but at least it's authentic and authenticity was key with this one. Thanks, as always, for listening and providing the kind feedback, Steve!

Nice song, Natural and stripped back, it's very well performed Tom.

Thanks, as always for listening and for the kind feedback, Steve! It's kind of scary to strip everything away and really expose one's voice and playing. So it's kind of a relief that what I did here still turned out sounding okay.

Cool. You can perform very well without a bag of tricks Tom, and I think that's proper talent. Excellent!

Very sweet and good tempo Tom.

Thanks, Anna! As you might guess, I'm also a big fan of the minimalism of solo acoustic music. That kind of music is what inspired me to pick up a guitar in the first place.

Thanks, Steve! It's a song I covered from the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack and I thought its vibe worked well for the new mic/guitar setup I'm trying out.

This song is a nice reprieve from all the "doom and gloom" this month has visited upon many of us. I definitely found myself tapping along with the beat and doing some air guitar (when no one was looking)! Fun stuff, Steve!

High praise comparing this song to John Lennon - he's a huge influence on me and so I'm quite honored...and I think this song turned out pretty well under the circumstances (I sang it following the US election). Glad you enjoyed it and, as always, thanks for stopping by to listen!

I'm not sure if you purposely did this (the title of your song suggests it was purposeful), but it sounds like used the first 30 seconds of Aerosmith's "Walking the Dog" to cook up something new and interesting. Cool stuff!

Thanks, Dok! While I didn't write this song, I appreciate the sentiments of this song too. It works on (at least) two levels: one level is the obvious Ram Dass reference while the other is about loving another. Btw, I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff!

Thanks, Dok! I know my style isn’t for everyone, so I do appreciate that some of what I post here resonates with you and that you keep coming back to listen.

@TheProods: As always, thank you for stopping by to listen and to give encouragement; I really appreciate it!

I kinda figured the "Empire Builder" comment was yours, Dok, but didn't want to assume anything! And thank you for the warm words for "Lemon Grove Ave." Cool to have folks like you listening and appreciating what I'm playing!

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words! I always try to go with songs that I can imagine a live audience listening to, so it's cool this song was received that way.

It's like Syd Barrett joined Guns N' Roses for a day to rewrite (and sing) their song "Coma." Cool stuff!

Tapping my toe to the rhythm guitar on this one - you're definitely onto something here!

Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!

Liking the guitar on this one!

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.

Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.

Sounds like something off an 80s John Carpenter soundtrack. Very cool!

@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.

Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.

Thank you for the kind words, @Eshar!
