Thanks Milt!

Jim - I here ya, bud.

Richard - Yep, migraines...I know them all too well. Sucks! Sometimes if I hold the neck up higher (like Paul McCartney early Beatles) it doesn't bug me as much. If I go through 4 days of solid playing, I end up with a horrendous migraine. Sometimes a day or so break helps alot, which is hard to do because I want to play. No headache though today. Thanks, bud. Glad you enjoyed.

Uncle John - Thank you! I guarantee your guardian angle is a good guy.

Pick - As always, thanks!

very nice all around .

Pretty finger style and a pretty song.  I think I may have guardian angel and a good one.  If not, I'd be dead, maimed or in jail.   Thanks, Angel and God who sent you.  Man, this is a pretty song.

Nice.

A couple really nice phrases at the beginning and the end Snuffy! Another well played tune. I really enjoyed Angelface, loads of peace and tranquillity. Yeah, the headaches come with the neck problems, but you know, sometimes playing guitar stops the headache somewhat. A matter of getting the mind in a better place. I'm sure you know this one: I lived on aspirin for several years, but had to stop! Headaches and stomach pain, too much! Obviously no alcohol! What's Left? Guitar!!!! Hope your feeling as good as your playing!

Yeah, three simple tunes are often better than one complicated one!

Thanks Jim. This was reworked from one of my earlier snippets. I tried adding more to it to lengthen it, but nothing fit like the original melody I had worked out, so I'm saving all the new parts I didn't use for another song down the line...which is very similar...so maybe I'll do an "Angelface (reprise)".

Nicely done Smitty!
