This is the most recent tune I was working on, at the request of the guitar player I pick with. He had just bought a pristine copy of the album "Poor Richard's Almanac" off eBay, and wanted me to work up the tune "Poor Richard's Blues" off that album. This is a recording I made on my cell phone to email to Wes, the guitar picker. Since it's a cheap cell phone the quality is not all that great and my cell phone limits recordings to 1 minute. But, it's enough to get the idea of my treatment of the tune. The tune has two parts, and a bridge, which I didn't get to in my recording. The tune is in the key of Gm but I am playing in standard G tuning gDGBD. For what it is, I hope you enjoy :)

Great picking, Frank. I love that descending chord thing you have going as you get into it, sounds really cool. Poor Richard's Almanac is one of my all time favorite instrumental albums.
