A largely pointless endeavor, a rendition of Hallelujah with quick fingerpicking and banjos (what's new?).

Really quite nice. Sometimes, the most pointless endeavors are the best ones. I'm glad you took at least a couple liberties with the melody in a couple verses. Frankly, the original melody gets a little old after 10 or 15 renditions. What surprises me is that there hasn't been a proper spoken word version yet. Maybe I'll fix that...or just make it worse, we'll see.

I am working on this very thing. . .I'll have it in a few days. . .sorta Doc Watson plays Cohen. Yours is good.

Nice! As a real straight-shooting, uptempo folk take I think it's great—this is exactly what I'd want to trip across at a campfire singalong jam.

I really love your picking. It makes a great texture to lay your vocals over.

Here's a challenge for ya ORthey; I dare ya to make Kum Ba Yaa sound this good!

(Just kidding...of COURSE you'd make it sound this good!)

I was waiting for this one. I had a feeling it was coming, and I was definitely not disappointed. Nice rendition!
