I do hope you enjoy

Hi Kenny,
 I very much enjoyed this. Thanks so much for sharing.

 My wife and I put it up on the big screen and sat mesmerized.

 I see you got a dose of your own medicine too... I think we were all smiling together at the same time at one point in your video.

 It's great to see music honored for just what it is with no extra packaging. Fantastic stuff.

 If you ever get anywhere close to Florida please look me up. I'd really like to help document some of the things you have to share with the world.

 Keep up the great work.

 best regards,
mike

Hi Kenny,

Very nice! Excellent single note lines and beautiful chord melodies.

Outstanding!

WONDERFUL performance to hear and see.

Kev

That's fantastic Kenny. You make it look deceptively simple, but there are some very intricate passages and chord changes in there. Inspiring.

Nice playing. I really appreciate the skill level to play that as well as you did. 

Excellent.

And.... a man of few words. 



Now... the big question..... how much bacon is in that fridge?  





Parting thoughts:  I'd consider a slightly different camera angle. 

Your O hole had babies! There were some minor imperfections? But hey! It was a live freaking performance!! I could never play it... True talent on display. 

 
Two in a week eh Ken
 
Such an inspiration to hear the guitar played with such articulation and feeling.
 
Mind you, it would make the rest of us feel better if you dropped in a few bum notes now and again (as opposed to "that's weird"!)
 
Awesome.

Great job Kenny. YT crapped out me but what I heard was nice.

Fantastic! Tyhat is the best tone I've ever heard from an Ovation.

Excellent!

hi Rik,
I'm glad you enjoyed my acoustic guitar playing on this tune
playing solo acoustic guitar is something i really enjoy doing as a creative outlet
it is my long held desire to put out more music along these lines .
keeping the song interesting while exploring the various inner motifs has always been  somewhat of a challenge
often times in my practice sessions I find these little gems , that's what happened here
thank you so much

hi mike_mccue,
a big thank you go's out to you for the super kind words you have said and the invite to visit you if I'm in your area
you have always been more than kind to me here on this song forum

offering my music and guitar playing to the world is something that i have a strong desire to continue to do ...
come what may , yay or nay

often times,
while presenting my music to the world ,it has sometimes felt to me as if I'm a little anonymous rowboat surrounded by a congested sea of luxury liners and party boats
everywhere I look and listen ,
i have felt the constant bombardment and reverberation of dazzling colors, unnatural sounds ,the flashing of neon lights and the seemingly unlimited resources of an army of collaborators
pushing , pushing, pushing, the agenda of  what's cool , whats not cool, what's hip, what's not hip , add nausum  

the idea of a simple no frills presentation of my music to the world by holding a guitar in my hand ,
getting out of my own way & simply letting the music flow as the video recorder records
appeals to my desire to share my music with the listeners in an low pressure non confrontational intimate setting  

who knows , this might be the only true offering I have to give to the world at the moment  
this is the simplicity of my artistic being in it's absolute nakedness & vulnerability
 
yet, i do suppose that at some point  I'm gonna have  to hide the refrigerator or find a better stage

be back soon

That's fantastic Kenny. You make it look deceptively simple, but there are some very intricate passages and chord changes in there. Inspiring.

to some of the earlier posters , I've got to jump ahead in the order here ..

hi James ,
I'm glad you got to hear and see me do this type of thing

yes making it look deceptively simple is something that I strive to accomplish when i play

inspiration is the only thing that really keeps me striving to play better
i feel that inspiration shared is inspiration multiplied

to repeat  this song exactly the way i played it note for note
I will have to sit down and copy what i did
this is one of the big reasons why I will  post  a solo guitar tune w all the warts and clams

 I'm glad to be back here , I missed a lot of you guys


Kenny
 

beautiful, Kenny!  just fantastic!

Rimshot , geear1 , Lynn , Kev , Malcomb , Purple Rhapsody,

thank you guys for the listen & the kind words

Kenny
