Macyn Taylor playing "Let Your Light Shine on Me" by Blind Willie Johnson at a garden party last summer on a Petros GC guitar. macyntaylor.com petrosguitars.com
Gorgeous voice and very sweet pickin`! Love the percussive bass effect too. Very talented young lady. Look forward to checking out more of Macyn`s music. Thanks Macyn and thanks busker12.
Too bad about those rude people in the background who couldn't shut their yaps while you were performing, some people just have no class, but you surely do and very nice you are too.
Awesome! Love the flatpicky sound with the thumbpick and fingerstyle combo. And the old timey tune. Wonder if you've thought about doing any Norman Blake stuff in that style? Keep up the awesome playin, it's such a wonderful thing.
That is superb: you just get better and better! You've certainly been listening to Blind Willie Johnson: I love your falsetto 'instead of' BWJ's false bass. Wonderful - please keep it up
This song makes me wanna jump up and dance, it would definitely be some random old time campfire dancing, the kind where you don’t know what you are doing until you do it. And I would definitely love every second of it. But sadly it’s raining outside and I’m in a room to small to stand up in 😅
very impressive. I really liked the little flatpicking runs and that you did them with a thumbpick. And thanks for doing a Blind Willie Johnson song. Do you ever do any Leadbelly songs? Both guys were 12-string guitar masters.
Hey, I just read a comment about BWJ I wrote last year - coincidence, I'm sure, but thanks! What I find particularly delightful is that you don't do the same old Joan Byez etc stuff over and over but here you are with material from a long gone - and well respected - blues/gospel singer. Now Blind Blake one day? May I ask you to sing Doc Watson's Alberta, please?
Beautiful rendition, angel-you, thank you 👏🎼🎵❣️
A wonderful tribute to Blind Willie Johnson. You sound wonderful.
I haven't learned any other songs by Blind Willie Johnson. Maybe sometime in the future. Thanks for the suggestions.
Where's the 'I love this!' button?
Simply amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your gift.
la perfection dans le doigté et la voix d'une vraie blueswoman
I don't have the tab. I learned it by ear from the recording.
Best rendition on youtube. I really love this song and Willie Johnson.

Still fire 🔥
When i clicked this Video i was thinking: "This can not be good"
But serious, that was AMAZING!
GOOD
I'm in love
Well done.
I love you.
Very nice
Falsetto is good!
Macyn, where are you? 😢
well done
so nice. would you post another one of this, indoor without those people talking.
Excellent version! I just wondering... Do you have the tab of the song? I can't get how to the strumming part. Good job anyway!
so awesome, btw what tuning is this?
Standard
She's doing choked chords in the key of G. That probably not the right name for them but thats what I've always called them.
