The Ragpicker's Dream

I received harmonica as birthday present this winter, seems like it fits the song. Hope you like it

Holy. Moly. That is awesome. Great tone on that acoustic.. Really good Foma, goosebumps over here. Just let it listen to my roommate, he's very impressed.

THANK YOU! Both actually

It's all the power of a finest songwriting on Earth.

Great comment mate, the most enjoyable part is when people actually asks about who wrote THAT, and I'd answer with all my love about this written by Mark and that he have about 200 songs of this magnitude in his book, so go and listen to him right now! And it really works, that kind of promotion.

Hi Foma!   That was amazing!   I loved it.  The harmonica suited the song so well too!

Thank you! This song just needs something that have a nostalgic feeling, it could be harmonica, steel guitar (as on original), or maybe dreamish strat.

My first idea was to use a strat for little chops like in Sting's 'The Night The Pugillist Learned How To Dance' which is RDP Part2 how I call it:

 

Lol! Millions arrangements are possible. I wish I'd had real bassist to play over. I tried bass but it wouldn't work at all.

Glad you liked. I want to record 'Chilly Winds' again, because I'm so disappointed with my version so I deleted it. But I'll keep The Ragpicker's Dream
