Robert - I am SO glad to see your post. I left a YT comment - this is really good, crisp, clear and beautiful tone. More please.
Great to see you posting again, Robert. Amazing clean playing and as a result great sound of your Collings. I hope you are doing well.
Yay Robert’s back! Wonderful tone and tune too. Fine playing. Thanks for the abc file but I couldn’t get it to go through the TAB cruncher, here’s the D Compton’s version that he plays, from thesession without the colourful chords.

Glad to see you posting again, Robert! Fine tone from your Colllings mandolin, great playing.
Robert, a great tune, very fine playing and a lovely tone from your Collings. A pleasure to listen to this track.
Your playing is so clean, it's impressive. Thank you for posting.
Thank you all for the kind comments. It has been a long road but I hope to do a few more tunes soon.
Robert, I still have you on my YT subscription list - because i hoped you would be back playing.
I had sworn never to be the kind who watches cat videos, but this one is worth it
