    Man I’m 14 and kids my age are really missing out on good music like this. Such an emotionally relatable song. So glad I learned it

      Did you manage? Hope so, it's actually easier then it looks, and few parts to learn. But so fun and addictive to play!

      Hope u learned it man, it really is easier than it looks, after I changed to the dm/C# finger position to something that was easier for me, made it a breeze to practice and get down

    You know this was the song my first wife and I chose for our wedding. I wish we could do it justice with an appropriate waltz dance or something. We were all robbed by his early departure. I can only imagine how many beautiful hits he would have delivered on par with this! And maybe even better! Love the N4N ear you have and share with us because this song is PERFECT just as he played it with his sideman. Thanks for delivering this in an easy way to absorb.

      Thanks very much KP!! This song was a great choice for your wedding. Beautiful love song. And yes, Jim's death was a sudden and shocking loss that stopped the production line. Thankfully his legacy lives on, with an amazing group of acoustic songs written over a relatively short time span.

    Hello again Dave. Heard this classic just the other day on my 'go-to' AM radio station. He was such a great singer/songwriter/guitarist. Would love to cover one of his songs but his voice is difficult for me to justify a cover. 🙄 Who knows . . . . maybe one day! 🤷🏻‍♂ 🙏
    Anywho . . . . a great tutorial Dave . . . . your playing and vocals are just beautiful Mate. 🎸 🎤 🎧 👌

    Dm/C# seems impossible for me... I just cant reach the string with my pinky 😢

    • @FredEadie
      @FredEadie День тому

      I struggle with this too. As a novice, I prefer to finger pick with my classical guitar as the strings are further apart so easier to avoid mistakes and touch other strings with my fat fingers, unless I'm playing a song with Dm/C#, where I use an acoustic guitar as mine has strings slightly closer together, which makes it easier to make the shape!

    Hey, it's a nice video but the piking pattern of the intro doesn't sound nearly as the original, in fact it sound like a simplified and boring version

    • @DOBacousticguitar
      @DOBacousticguitar  5 днів тому

      I am teaching the Jim Croce guitar part. In Jim's original studio recording, a second guitar part is layered on, producing the full effect. The original stereo recording has Jim's main guitar panned completely to one side, and the 2nd. guitar part is panned to the other side. So, if you have the capability to pan to check this out, you can hear the two parts separately. This lesson is meant to teach a solo guitar player that may want to sing along to it, so yes my video is demonstrating a simplified version. Thanks, you comment will probably help others that read this.
