I wrote this song Buttercup Joe with the aim of being an English folk song, with the help of BIAB it went in another direction so now it's more of an upbeat country style.
I recorded and played all guitars with my Strat and Mesa/Boogie and sang the vocals.

This is cool BUT the offer of an English folk song really grabbed my attention and I'd LOVE to hear that version - just vocal and hurdy gurdy perhaps.
Your playing is terrific and makes me wish this wasn't quite so country and perhaps a little more English.


Cheers

That "English Folk" is just barely poking thru.

Nice write guitar works sounds great.
Vocals well done.
