Singing and Playing

[Eric***]

I think a lot of it was that I was playing a song I can play without any thought whatsoever, Uncle Tupelo's "No Depression" so for once that "what do I sing when I strum what?" that always prevents me from pulling it off wasn't a factor.

I love that song. I wish I could play it the way Jay Farrar does. Maybe someday I'll get back into the acoustic and try to work on it.

Yeah, I can't play it like Farrar, let alone sing it like him, but I can strum it out pretty steadily and can conceivably eventually learn to pick it out correctly. It's a nice one to remember as the first one I could sing. Seems about right with where my music listening is these days.
