Played fine for me. Nice playing, Richard.

If I can be totally frank (whoever HE is...) in part one I personally think that just a hair less volume-pedal action is better, when playing "up front" as you did in part one, but that's just my own opinion... ok?

Nice tone and playing.

Thanks for listening, Herman and Jim.
I'm sorry you couldn't receive it, Herman, because it seems to have totally disappeared off the net altogether.
Thanks for the comments on my playing,Jim, I appreciate your opinion, you may be spot on about my volume pedal technique, indeed, when I listen to some of my recordings, I think that I am overusing the pedal, but I fear that I cannot change now, it's become too ingrained!!
Peace,
Richard

I use to have a volume pedal problem as well. Decided that it should not be allowed to go on. So, what I did was, for a few days, played without any pedal....then I added the pedal, but put a matchbox underneath the back so that it can't be 'closed', or be backed off at all.
It surely payed off. You are welcome to click on my signature and listen to some of my stuff done since.
Regards,
Nic
