Hey man, this is great! I've always loved this song. Your version is both touching and professional. D.F. would be proud.

Jay Hennessy : You did a beautiful job. This is one of the best covers of this timeless, immortal classic. Dan Fogelberg's song "Leader Of The Band" has touched the hearts and souls and lives of millions of people all around the globe. For the past week, I've been watching dozens of covers of this song from all over the world; from people who can barely speak English; but this song has touched their hearts and souls. So far, only one person has murdered this song...Luci Arnaz, and she can sing. She's the daughter of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. You have done a great job of covering this song. If I could get a guitar and learn to play it, I'll play this song all day long. Thank you for uploading this cover to KZbin.

[@JayDH100]

Thank you very much! I wish I had an ounce of DF's songwriting ability. I have one song for which I'm incredibly proud. It was inspired by daughter's wedding. I'd love it if you'd take a listen to "Sunshine Girl". She's my heart. Here's the link. If you like it, I'd be honored if you shared it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpvHqYBoi8ukftU

I love this song so much. Brings back my memories of my college years. What a sensitive person Fogelberg was... He touched so many with his art and feelings

Tears come to my eyes every time I listen to this song. Dan was a great musician, composer and lyricist. We are all living his legacy.

This is lovely Jay and I'm glad I found you doing it here. I just posted a version and notice you off to the right and had to take a listen. I use to play this song in coffee houses back in the 80's and 90's and just picked it back up after years of not playing it. You've got a new fan here! Mark

wow ... what a great cover . Extremely tight guitar work and vocals , very , very nice good job , not sure if you have covered it I see other df covers ... sand and the foam ???

[@JayDH100]

Oh yes, I cover "The Sand and the Foam", but I've never put it out on a video. The song begs for 3 guitars and at least 2 voices. When my son and I gig together, we play this, but he doesn't like the song and so won't learn the backing vocal... kids these days!

Thank you, Heidi, this isn't written down anywhere, but it's extremely easy. I got it from listening, attending his concerts and watching concert videos (he has some unique "Travis Picking" phrasing techniques that are hard to pick up just listening). You might have noticed that I (and all of his concert videos) are playing this in the key of G, the original recording released on "The Innocent Age" album and played on the radio, was in the key of Ab (capo 1).
