Hesitation Blues
https://youtu.be/4IB0C3CivG8
Here is me and my brother jamming on the old Reverend Gary Davis classic. Neither one of us do this tune as a regular thing, but it was something that we could come together on. I have been spending some time here in Oklahoma with my two brothers, trying to settle our father's affairs, and we have been able to do a bit of picking.

Re: Hesitation Blues
That worked very well - no suggestion that it was something unrehearsed at all!
Nice use of ornamentation and fills too. All very relaxed and smooth flowing.

I could listen for hours... love it.
Beautiful music with a sad reason.

Thanks, fellers...
This kind of playing is outside of my comfort zone. I used to do a lot of this about fifteen years ago, but I haven't done any acoustic stuff in years. Having my brothers handy and the guitar that my dad played throughout my childhood kind of got me fired up. I could wish that my singing was better...

Re: Hesitation Blues
Not having done any acoustic stuff for years hasn't cramped your style now you've come back to it.
I'm sure the guitar enjoyed your playing too.
