Duane Becker- I just heard your "I love you Because". Nice C6 work. Good sound.I like it.

Easy download now with Tilley's MPEG, takes a minute. All the ones in Green are MPEG now fast. The ones in Blue now are MP3 slow, takes me about 25 minutes to download, with phone line.
Good work Tilley, those MPEG'S are great!...al.:):).

I agree Vern, very nice Charles.
I finally figured out how to get the songs to play. I Had a problem with my computer and couldn't get the songs to download, but I got it fixed.

Moon-I just downloaded your song "Let me call you Sweetheart". Nice smooth playing, brings back old memories.

Tony-Nice picking on that "Rocky Top"..
Still taking a while to download, so I dont have the time to get too many songs, but am trying.

Tilley put my "Whispering " on till the end of Novermber, which some of the guys wanted to hear the Boowah with the tone contol used in 1950, and the bar crashes,I slap the bar down , no picking and use the tone controlWe had them on our guitars back 57 years ago. Thanks for putting it on Tilley...al.:):)

I just heard John McGlothin's "Have yourself a Merry Merry Christmas".
John-your picking was so clean and clear, I almost thought it was a Six string guitar. I thought you did a real nice job on the song and the backup was very good too.

I guess after a 20 year layoff from playing, I will have to get back and start practicing again.

There is getting to be a lot of very good players on Tilley's website, and he has it fixed so they download real quick.

I want to thank Charles Tilley for putting on my December Christmas Medley- "White Chritmas" and "The Christmas Song".
I did these with one take and let it all hang out mistakes and all.

I did these for my friend Ray Byrd in Florida on a tape about 15 years ago. I set up one of his many guitars to my E6 tuning and gave a few instructions on the tape for him. He is a very good steel player, but wanted to learn some E6.....al.:):)

Moon- I too just had the time to hear you and Richard Burton, Susan, Vernon Hester, Charles Reece, and Charles Davidson. I am trying to keep up with the new ones and still trying to catch up on the older ones. Everyone is sounding real good.

I have a Christmas Medley on now for the Holidays, White Christmas and The Christmas Song. I hve a tape of the Christmas song that I made for my friend Ray Byrd in Florida, as he wanted to try some E6. I talked as I played to let him know what frets , etc, thought it would be easier for him to learn it....al.:):):)
