Lullaby Video. Duet with John Skelton

This song has been a favourite of mine since the '70's -
I'm a big fan of Wishbone Ash and this track comes from their 1972 "Pilgrimage" Album.

I've dedicated this song to my new Grand Daughter Jessica who was born on 8th June, a sister for Emily. She appears in the video from the hospital just a few hours old.

The Backing track and Tab for the lead can be downloaded free here :-

If anyone wants another combination of BT or the Tabs for the whole song please email me via my website.

Many thanks to John for learning the second guitar part.
Hope you like "Lullaby" all comments welcome.
Cheers Phil

Thank you very much Fred and Steve for your nice comments.
We're glad you liked it.

Steve - Candlelight is a great suggestion very short but beautiful song.
Maybe one for the future.

All the best Phil & John

Hello Phil and John
A great partnership.
Lovely Duet with impeccable timing from both of you and crystal clear tone and mix. BT too is just excellent.
Many thanks

Thanks Ian - glad you liked it.
It started off as a midi file and we changed all the parts to "Real" instruments except the bass
which is the only part left from the midi file. I detuned the acoustic by a semitone so I could play it in C

All the best... Phil & John

Hi Phil, Congratulations are in order of course. I guess that means that the first round is on me in July mate! :)
Superb sound gentlemen; i am enjoying it very much over here on a beautiful Danish summer's evening too!

Might i make a request for a number? How about a rendition of Percy Faith's great composition, ' Theme from a Summer Place'?
Bruce did it a fews years back now at 'Mania' and i was blown away! It's been a real favourite of mine for many years now.
Maybe it's not suited for a duet, what do you think?

See you soon in the UK Phil. Best Wishes' Rich'.
