As it's another Cover I cant post my original guitar recording on Showcase and as I still don't do video (and probably never will), I leave it up to my great guitar playing mate Phil McGarrick to do the necessary for me on YouTube.

Here is his guitar Instrumental playing of my BiaB arrangement of Skeeter Davis' timeless Classic tearjerker from 1962 using my BiaB produced BT. (BB 2019 Plus)

Enjoy.

Excellent rendition and arrangement. I always admire the tone you achieve while playing; very precise and melodic.

Thank you so much for taking the time to view and to listen.
Peter - We as a Community here are totally indebted to you for your superb software. I have no keyboard other than QWERTY and I'm always stunned what comes out of it just by poking it with one finger. smile
Bring on 2020!
Beatmaster - cant find a Skeeter version of TKHITLH. If you have a link can you PM me.
Cheers
IAN

Here's Skeeter

Below a cover version of the song by Bill Frisell & Co. Robin Holcomb on the vocals.
Quite a nice version from a great Frisell album (Nashville)

Hi Mrgeeze
Its Skeeters version of To Know Him is To Love Him that I can't find.
Any ideas?

Very nice! Thanks for posting this. Good job on the backing track and your buddy plays it real nice on that Strat. Just today I heard the original on a Time-Life Classic Country music infomercial. The only thing missing in your version is Skeeter's voice, but your buddy fills that gap rather nicely with his guitar.

Thanks Johne1 for the kind comments.
I'm a big fan of BB for my backings and Phil did my arrangement justice.
