This song has a gorgeous build. It starts with a solo piano and slowly, sensually builds and builds. By the time the trumpet is wailing, you’ll blow your top.

Just ran across this during a search and thought it would be fun to share. Fastest guitarist.

He plays that country hammer-on a lot, and it sounds great. I need to learn how to play this JT fingerstyle.

He actually uses a very odd fingering for how he does those. I’ve never seen anyone else use his finger arrangements. He uses his pointer to do the hammer-ons. Very awkward to me.

I saw BOC once. The summer I graduated high school I went on a road trip with my best buddy. Our first stop was a Day on the Green concert in San Diego. They headlined. It was also the first time i dropped acid. That show was something else!!

This is the song to post from an airport gate. Still makes me cry. John Denver had a magic in his writing and his singing.

Okay - I was young enough to absolutely LOVE that song! And still do!!!

However, as a bass player, I have long been haunted by memories of this song. Which I only recently found out wasn't even played on a bass anyway. But, I still really dig it.

Gary Wright - Love Is Alive
