I'd Be A Legend In My Time,(with Youtube backing track)

Post by John A. Russell »

Hey all


Here's one I just finished. The old Don Gibson song, "I'd Be A Legend In My Time"

On this one, you have to really concentrate, to keep in pitch, so I guess it's good practice.

The track is a nice bonus! great to play along with.

Running out of ideas at present, but will leave you with this one for now.

If you want a copy, please PM me, but don't forget to include your email address.
