Tears in Heaven : instrumental on electric guitar
This is an instrumental version of Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton played on electric guitar by me - but played finger style with an acoustic tone. I played this over a minimal rhythmic backing track on my Clapton signature strat named GOLDIE. I learned it because of the immiment passing of my wife's 106 year old grandmother - and at the request of the family, played it (quietly) at her bedside in hospice two days before she finally did pass on peacefully.
My dear father, at age 91, also passed away a littie over 3 months ago (8-30-08) due to pneumonia acquired from a fall requirng surgery due to Parkinson's, so I have been playing this a lot again, as I do believe he can hear and feel it in the better place he is now. My 97 years old Mother is grieving, but maybe can take a little solace in this music.

That is an incredible picture, and I'm certain it was there for you to capture - both into your camera and into your heart and soul. The Creator is happy when "his" creations are wonderful ones - and that is certainly the case with you my friend!
There are only possibilities and each moment is a slice of Heaven, and you've learned to stack up those slices into a life full of wonder that you share with your fantastic music and friendship!
And I've been listening more to your music and the Bluesmates — and that's some GREAT BLUES you've got going there!! It's an honor to know a true pro like you!
A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours - and much more great Blues to come. :)

Thanks for the nice words about my song, "Hard Times". I had some hard times myself a while back so I took early retirement from my computer business to spend time with my family and I have never regretted it. I haven't had much money since then but that hasn't made my life any less enjoyable or fulfilling. Music is healing. Playing or listening. I'm glad my funny little hobo song could reach out to you.
Thanks,
Hairy Larry
