Thanks Joel. Great job on this one.

Excellent! Exactly the way I've been playing it for years. I just wish I could whistle so I could do justice to the solo. Now I have to either try to enhance my fingerpicking a little, play the kazoo or hum through the solo, but I think anyone listening probably prefers I do nothing except maybe play far away.

Excellent version! Try playing E7 rather than E, also a typo in the solo of D7 which should be Dm7.
