Scarborough Fair (trad. English) Daniel Estrem, guitar

[@JeremyDuncan]

Trully stunning. It feels like a cascade of sound

[@danbluedeer]

Thanks Jeremy - I appreciate your comment

[@CasaDosGrilos]

this is the most exquisite version available - Dan's understanding of the rhythm of this piece leaves all the other versions in the dust an extraordinary privilege to listen to very many thanks

[@danbluedeer]

Michael -Thanks for listening - I appreciate the comment

[@Troubleshooter125]

Not just Scarborough Fair, but the Canticle which Paul Simon integrated into it, and beautifully done! _Molte grazie!_

[@danbluedeer]

Many thanks!

only 472 views. This is epic, welly done, well played, virtuoso. Vocal melodies done right. Might be one of, if not the best acoustic versions I've heard...I've heard many...trust me. NICE JOB from one Dan to another.

[@danbluedeer]

Thank You Daniel! I appreciate the comment...not much I can do about the views- sometimes it just takes a few years. / Daniel

[@DanielEspinoza5]

@@danbluedeer Yes, i feel the same about my wife's music...it did take a few years and connections though. It's funny, skilled stuff has low views and tracking...and the more trendy stuff has a gazillion. Keep up the fine work.

[@kennethsrensen7706]

today only 4839 views , it´s totally underrated. But it´s because most people today doesn´t understand real music. Just look at all this socalled populary music ´pop ´ music...... it´s really without any soul. To play or should we just say ´make ´music today all you need is E , A , F , G chord and you good to go not to mention a song text there may not be too complicated ( read ´today you get away with just a few repeating words and some woho sounds ) Im not just some ´starting to get old ´ nostalgists bragging about how it was better back in the old days and all this bla bla ..... But there is some truth in it. Thats why great music like this never get many views. It´s a shame because this is really quality .

Also watching you reminds me of my childhood in England. The father of one of my mates constructed several medieval instruments which he also learned to play. A very interesting family who I wish I was still in touch with.

Sir this song was taught in our school, in Kolkata (Calcutta), India. You played it so well. Scarborough Fair ❤️❤️ I second the opinion that you played it the best by far. I watched so many videos on KZbin, but yours is the best.

I would request you to play “Top of the World” by the Carpenters someday 😊 ❤️. Even this song was taught in my school. Now that I have moved out of Kolkata and residing in Mumbai since last 10 years, I get nostalgic while hearing these songs. Your playing is so soothing to the ears❤️😊. Thanks.
