Today I have two songs that have been covered many, many times. Hopefully, my arrangements will hold some interest if you're already familiar with the songs.
First, "Suzanne," the Leonard Cohen song:

Next, an old country ballad called Long Black Veil. This one has been most famously recorded by Johnny Cash and also by The Band. It sounds like one of those old ballads that's maybe been around for a hundred years or more...but in fact it was written in 1959, first recorded by Lefty Frizzell.

I played a bit with the recording to get a certain sound for each song...ultimately, I probably could have kept it a whole lot simpler and it would have sounded about the same.
More coming soon.
