    Nice job . That is not a song I would think of playing on the piano but you nailed it. Would love to hear that on a Fazioli

    Great job Nige! Most folks now cover this song in the ballad form the way Jimmy wrote it. But I happen to like this uptempo March form better!! It's the way I first heard it, so probably that will alway be my favorite. Bravo!! thanks for sharing Bruce Towell

      Thankyou Bruce, glad you enjoyed it! I've only ever heard the uptempo Glen Campbell version so that's how I played it

      @@NigeB yes check out Glen's version from "Live in London' around 1977 it's on youtube..and also the composer Jimmy webb himself, has recorded it a couple of times, all slow versions, but i like the uptempo the best:-)

    I love that you capture so much of the instrumental effects and fluctuations in the song. It does sound a little happier on piano than it's supposed to be though, considering it's essentially about a homesick soldier missing his love. You know what I mean? I think Jimmy Webb slows it down too much when he plays this, but maybe a slower tempo would remedy that.

      Thankyou! Yes I agree it sounds a bit too bright and happy on the piano to reflect the song's lyrics, hopefully I managed a more downbeat sound for Witchita Lineman

      You are so welcome. For some reason I have been watching Glen's videos. I never knew he was such a great guitar player. He had a fabulous career. Played for just about everyone even replaced Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys for 6 months. He was phenomenal. Thanks for sharing your talents.

    You wouldn't happen to have a source for this would you? Any sheets or anything?

    • @NigeB

      I'm afraid I didn't use sheets for it. I'm sure there must be some out there, maybe in a Jimmy Webb songbook :)
