Well I guess not many folks here sent anything in for this ?I've only submitted country tunes 2 or 3 times and was returned every time...I wonder if this listing will be as difficult to get a forward on as the regular country listings? Well, only $5 to find out...And I recorded this version in a day ( thought I could do it in a couple of hours )...Slow tempo tunes are the tuffest to do...Especially with acoustic guitars Thanks for your comment Vicky...Salut !MG

I had a forward for my version of the above mentioned '' She Believes in Me ''...So I sent this version of Willie Nelson's '' Always On My Mind '' for the listing below....Although this is not the '' Listings'' section I thought I'd just continue on this old thread since it seems to be for the same company. http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... am=1Pretty cool recording these tunes because I hadn't played them in 15 + years...But they'll always be classics to me !

Hi Mikey!I never go to the boards farther down the main page so I've been missing your tunes! Congrats on the forward for She Believes in Me! I really like Always on My Mind, sounds like Willie's phrasing and his old Martin, even, except maybe more contemporary (he uses nylon strings, right?). Well done!! Nice build in the background too.
