Easy Living (Billie Holiday) Instrumental on 4 string Cigar Box Guitar

This was the last tune before I sent this guitar to its new owner. I know Billie Holiday didn't write this song, but for me it was the definitive version :)
This was supposed to feature my wife on vocals but that version will have to wait!
4 string CBG tuned FCFA, hand wound pickup.

Thanks Jim - I don't think my playing has got better...I would like to think that my standards of setting up my instruments are getting better :-)

That one even got my wife to stop and listen. Great way to start a Saturday morning. Thanks for posting, we look forward to hearing the full version with vocals in the future.
