Nice song.
"happier Times" must be a lost memory, that's sounds pretty sad.
well done.

Very nice, Carl
A pleasant listen and I enjoyed the changes of lead instruments. The nylon guitar sounds lovely - what is it? I liked the chord sequences.
Lets all hope for Happier Times Ahead.

Hi Ian, thanks very much for your nice comments and for listening - glad you like my little country tune!
The nylon guitar is a Takamine Hirade TH90 which I've had for years - just recorded with a single condenser mic (Microtech Gefell M 300) into Golden Age Pre 73 & Comp 54. I find mic placement during recording makes a lot of difference - nylon guitars can get boomy so I keep the mic up near the neck joint.
Blimey, yes we do need some happier times soon after all this nonsense - keep the music coming!
Cheers Ian, all the best - Carl

As others have mentioned, the guitar delivery is particularly nice. A very sensitively delivered balled with interesting chord progressions. Very notable actually

This is a lovely and delicately balanced song and performance. It flows very nicely and is a very easy listen. The guitar has a particularly sweet tone. Just what I needed to get a little lift
