This is also the tune that my son said, "I can't believe I'm playing a Bob Dylan tune with my dad!".

That was wonderful, @JohnG. Your plying has really improved since the very first video you posted. It is fun watching and listening to your progress. Thank you for sharing this song, it is one of my many favorites.

@Mouse - Thank you and glad you liked it. Of course, if I hadn't improved from those first feeble attempts, I definitely wouldn't be playing at all, any more!

@ELCBK - And thank you! If I have it in my blog and in here, should I add it to The Great Outdoors party, too?

@JohnG, great job playing! That's a really pretty song.

 

Btw, I couldn't help noticing Elmo photo bombing you video, LOL.

@SiennaAViolin - Thank you! And Elmo watches me often! This room is where the grandkids go when they visit when they're not plastered my Xbox Series X in the living room!

@ABitRusty - Thanks, I've forgotten how much I like some of the early, mainstream folk music from the '60s and '70s.
