Mother of two, married eleven years. Been playing guitar for three years, hoping some day to meet up with a few others interested in having fun making music.

I chose the name Rising1 to reflect the attitude of rising up from the mentality of "I can't" to "I can!". Rise up to "I can!" and be the best person you can for yourself, and ultimately others! :-) !!!!!
****JUST SO ANYONE KNOWS- I'M NOT GONE, JUST BUSY WITH OTHER REAL LIFE STUFF!!! I REALLY APPRECIATE THE VIEWS AND COMMENTS!!! I'LL BE BACK FULL TIME IN THE FALL, AND CHECK MY PAGE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK UNTIL THEN! THANKS FOR YOUR TIME TO VIEW MY WORK!!! 6/16/08****


*Some of the best musical influences in my life are those people who have taken the time to share what they know because they, too, just love to play music!

*I want to thank Barry C.H. who leads the Guitar Circle I participate in for seeing the potential of a four-month beginner (me!) and helping with gentleness to go further with playing that I ever thought I would do!

*Thanks to Fenners340 who has played bass for me at Arty Bash, and hopefully will again if he doesn't have to race that day!

*Thanks to my sister Deb, who let me play during her band's break to try out public playing!

*Thanks to my hubby, Dave, for being patient when I was just starting - and for continuing to be patient and supportive of my music!

.... Yeah, I'll thank my kids, too, who often have to listen to me play songs over and over and over... I love you both for doing the best you can to let me have some fun sometimes, too!


***MANY THANKS to all the friends I have made here on YouTube! I appreciate your views, your comments, and often, your care! You are the best support I could ever hope for!
Peace!

Hiya Elaine,

Unbelievably great. I love this song and the way you do it. There's an acoustic version of the song by Townsend himself on the BBC, which is mind-blowingly great, but your interpretation is also very moving. His is poignant, painful,and ultimately powerful; yours is tender, poignant, and comes across as totally authentic. One is not better than the other-- both great! Now if you can just write them like Pete, you're on your way to the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame. :-) Thanks for posting your work !!!
