Now uploaded new version to Soundclick - thanks to FEX for all his work on this.
Love it!
nice, very nice
Think this will be a good year. :)
The only Elton John song I ever liked !!
But not the only "Fools" song.
A great cover with a particularly pleasing vocal tone.
Well done Peter and fellow fools
Very well crafted song that does reminds me of The Strawbs (you do say they're a band you like). I do too. Are you sure Dave Cousins didn't sit in on the session :). I have The Strawbs, Brave New World, LP somewhere up in the attic. I'll have to dig it out and enjoy it again. Lovely acoustic guitar sounds.
