I've listened to you become better and better. Very nicely played, nice articulation on the bass notes. Some swing in the fingered notes. Keep on truckin'!

Hey Rik very nice playing! Is there lead melody? I could totally hear one sung overtop by a female singer. This is a very nice piece, did I miss the finished version from you and Janet??

A very pretty piece with some doggone good playing. It has a bit of "Piedmont" playing style to it (at least to me).
Nice stuff Rik.

Hi Robert , thanks for listening, glad you like it.
Hi John, sorry about that but thanks ; )
Hi BIABDude, thanks and a nylonstring guitar it is.
Hi Mike, these are the chords to the intro of "Softly I go" . Was figuring out what chords Janet was playing, thought it would work also in a fingerpicking style, just for fun : )
Hi Freddy, thanks, not quite sure what "Piedmont"style is, but I'll take your word for it ; )

Hi, Rik,
You've got another fantastic acoustic instrumental to add to your catalog!
Beautiful playing as always, and you captured that wonderful acoustic guitar tone so nicely, that it sounds like being in the room while you're performing.
Very nice work, Rik!
Bob

t I quite like it, maybe you do too
Yes I do. Sweet little piece Rik. Brought to mind Dylan's 'Don't Think Twice' for some reason.

Hi Mark, thanks for listening, glad you like it.
Hi Bob , thanks, glad you like the sound, recorded this on my memo recorder, did a bit of compression, eq and reverb afterwards, glad it still sounds natural. ; )
Hi James, glad you like it too, didn't know the Dylan tune, listening to it on youtube it does have simmularities, now if I could only sing as well as Bob : ).
Hi Tony, thanks for listening. Travis picking to woo the ladies, now there's an idea ; ) Good luck, mate.
Hi Tim, thought I'd better leave the drums out this time ; ), glad you like it.

Well there is not much else I can say, everybody else has already said it but nice job. After hearing a valium induced speed metal version of puff the magic dragon, this is a nice way to end my morning listening session.
Peace Ben

Great rock playing there, Rik. :)
Everyone else....we first posted 'Softly I Go' several weeks ago...it must be at least on page 5 by now.
Anyway, yeah, this is nice, Rik. Reminds me of why I wanted to try a collab in the first place.

Well done, great picking. Sounds Beatle-esque to me with a hint of ragtime.
