Written by John and Michelle Phillips, and sung by the Mamas and the Papas in the 60's, this works remarkably well as a solo guitar piece. One of the first covers I arranged, because, as I listened to it with the intent to learn to sing it, it occurred to me that all the voices and instruments could be played, or "suggested", on one guitar! So...BAM!!!

Here is a clear studio version, dedicated to my colleague and young hero, Sungha Jung, for "putting it on the map" and playing so great! (here is is playing this arrangement when he was like 8..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAhZZc_Bwps AMAZING)

If you want to play it, here's the where you can get my TAB: http://www.michaelchapdelaine.com/arrangements.html

people like you, and if i may add my other favorites, tommy emmanuel, igor, adam rafferty, ahn jung jae and many more.. what makes you different, better, than the other artists is that you play with your heart on it. you're not stiff when you're playing. you're all groovy, and it makes the song you're playing even better. that's what differentiate you from other guitarists who play the same music... the passion.. More powers Michael!!! keep on grooving!

It`s an amazing version. The intro it's exactly the same of the original, but maybe you'd agree that's it's a little bit weird. Well, I'll keep trying. Hey, you made me remember Moe's look, of the Three Stooges, hahahaa, just joking, I'm sorry!
