Emmanuel...
Jordan and I are singing this at church on Dec. 13. I'm hoping he'll sing the lead and I'll do the background. Good song!

Take Me In
My Savior, My God

Doing a little fiddling...
I haven't practiced the fiddle since Sept. 21st! So...
Fiddle
Old Joe Clark
Cripple Creek
Bilem Cabbage Down
Ida Red
Well, I can still get through them, but I'm not getting anything memorized so far. I'm not going to beat myself up about that because this is just a HOBBY...for FUN! And for some reason it IS fun, even when I don't seem to make much progress.
Guitar
Take Me In
You Are My Hiding Place
Pioneer
My Savior, My God
Beautiful Blood
Just enjoying playing these contemplatively. Now I'm going to listen to "Crimson Stream" and "Psalm 62" instead of trying to play them, because I'm all played out!
Adding a video of Leeland teaching "Enter This Temple" on New Song Cafe.
Shalom!

Some progress...
I have to be content with small steps of progress. Real life just doesn't allow me time to sit and play the guitar, fiddle and whistle for hours at a time every day, which is what one must do to be a good musician. So, I enjoy the small steps...
Guitar
I was a little frustrated at the sloppy, scribbled lyrics and chords I had for "Crimson Stream" and "Psalm 62", so I took the time to find good versions online and printed them out. I found lyrics for "Psalm 62" in one place and good "chord cheats" to make it easier for me to play in another place, so I spent a good deal of time typing the chords in over the lyrics in Wordpad. It worked out really slick and I attached copies of the chord diagrams for the "cheat" chords. Ready to really practice!
Played through both of these songs several times.
Fiddle
Played "Old Joe Clark" a couple of times.
