Very rusty !

It has been years since I posted last, and I don't play much anymore, so I'm massively out of touch but I thought Id try for old times sake  ;D

Good to see you back, I assumed you had died. I cannot discern that anything is rusty, still the same poignant sense of melodic phrase and harmonic change I remember. I think you should commence working at it again. Why not ? Don’t worry about technique, you’ll recapture that in a few weeks no problem. Matter of fact your recording tells me I might do well to play more lyrically and simply myself, I’ve gone as mad as a hatter lately with mine, really flown off the handle !

The section 2:02 to 2:20 is very pretty.
