Well done @Wim VD1. You play with great touch and emotion. Steve would be proud of you.

It's amazing what the Beatles could do with two chords and a riff. They performed this song in the key of G but that's too high for me to sing, so I did it in E. I'm not entirely happy with the vocal mix but I couldn't spend any more time on it. Thanks for listening.

@Wim VD1 Beautiful, as always. Your entire catalog of fingerstyle songs is very impressive.
@NeilES335 Excellent job. Nice tight rhythm and good clean tone on the lead.

I've been out of touch for a while, and I was hard pressed to come up with a song about a place or location. But then I thought: wait a minute, "the roof" is a place, so how about this one? It's done in the style of James Taylor.

I finished this one today, barely in time for the August challenge. It contains the lyric "And the sunshine we've been waiting for will turn to rain".
Mandy, I have to give you a shout-out because your rendition of "Nights in White Satin" a few months ago inspired me to do a Moody Blues song.
Thanks for listening.

Another great job @Texaspackerfan. The production quality of your songs continues to amaze me.

This was a hit for the Shirelles in 1960, but I did it in the style of Carol King (who co-wrote the song).
Please enjoy.

Wonderful Kevin! Very well done!
Interesting that 3 out of 4 so far this month are Beatles tunes.
Ian
I was thinking the same thing. I guess it's because they had so many good songs under 2:30.

I wanted to sing this song but my cold is forbiding it so this is my months contributions.
pleases hear his original :
Simply beautiful Danny. Not only is your playing excellent, but so is the sound engineering. Is that a real pedal steel guitar in the background, or were you able to produce that sound in your DAW?

I'm a huge James Taylor fan, so I thought this would be a good one for this month's theme. Thanks for listening.

Mandy, Danny, and Ian, thanks for the encouraging words.
By the way, Danny, as a lifelong Wisconsin resident I really get a kick out of your screen name. Do you get a lot of grief as a Packer fan living in Texas?

Here's my cover of a Bob Dylan tune. I don't play harmonica, so I tried a few guitar solos instead. Please enjoy.

Thanks @NeilES335, @IanD AND @Oldjock.
Neil, I share your pain regarding the difficulty of recording a clean take. I can play a song cleanly in practice dozens of times, but it's a whole different story when the microphone is in front of me.

I think this one meets the criteria since it talks about "a long cold lonely winter". I can relate to that, given the cold weather we had last week here in the Midwest.
