i enjoy listening to your recordings - and that was another good one.
the sound of your guitar is great - what guitar is it?

I have an old beater steel string and play almost exclusively nylon string now but since the first time I heard the GS I thought that is (the?) one steel string that could make me a convert.

I think you did a fantastic job on it. I honestly don't remember if I've even heard this before but I'm not sure how anyone could improve on it. Just an excellent job, IMHO.

Yes, John Barleycorn is my favorite Traffic album too.

Great Job! You need to find a flutist. :wink:
