I wrote this song and demoed it last nite. After finishing it, it sounds like my 5th string has dropped out of tune a little. Thats what I get for recording with new strings. :P

Hi Bill, That is really is a pretty tune. Your playing is
very nice and smooth, and you have it mixed real good.
Thanks for the post. Jean and I really enjoyed it. :D :D :D

Don, click on the link, it will take you to soundcloud then click on the play arrow. I just tried it and it worked fine.

Hi Bill,

That's what I did. But it won't play. It's showing the audio, all the way across, as if it's been played, and stuck there?

But click on the arrow, nothing. I even logged on and still couldn't play it, or any of them. Do you possibly have it set as being private (if that's possible)?

I've had trouble with Sound Cloud before getting things to play, but always managed. This time, it sure has me stumped.

I cleaned out my browser cache, etc., and still nothing. But, if I go overtop of it, and click on the download, it brings that up. But I'm not one for downloading much off the net. But I'd like to hear your tune.

If anyone knows the answer, it was nowhere to be found on Soundcloud.

I'm open for suggestions. That's the only site I've ever had any problems with, getting things to play.

Thanks, for the reply back though.

Don

Great playing, smooth as ice, so when do you replace Tommy White on the Opry?

Thanks Tom, I play through a Vox Valvetronic vtx modeling Amp with onboard effects. I added reverb on my recoder.

Thanks Kenneth, I know Tommy is worried about his job.
:lol: It is a dream to play with some one on the Opry some day.
I'm sure there are a lot of players better than me who have the same dream.

Thanks guys for your feedback
