    Beautiful song, Mary. I am a late guitar player. I played jazz drums all my life. I found your videos and I was inspired to give it a go. I am so happy! It opened up an entire new world and view of music for me. I am not good but I am enjoying the journey. I love and enjoy your music and voice. Thank you

    I am adding nothing new to the comments. So many are mentioning the smooth elegant nature of this video, and I couldn’t agree more. Luke’s guitar story was just quietly moving, and Mary’s performance was amazing. She makes it look so effortless, a true professional. I know she’ll be flooded with requests from all over the UK to play their venue. I am very envious. Here’s hoping that one day she might be able to come to my neck of the woods in the USA.

    I think what you are talking about is known as House concerts here in Canada. Generally the host passes all the gate onto the performer, and often puts them up for the night, BnB style. Simple refreshments are provided and guests are encouraged to bring an adult beverage if they want one. 10 to 20 people max usually.

    I worked in the bakery around that time.(I wanted to have a Sunburst Strat because of Slowhand and the Layla Album)After that my second guitar was a Gibson Les Paul Gold Top and I worked around that time at the German Mail Parcel Office...
    I paid for it 4000 German DM,and i was so proud of it.It was second Hand and it was pretty rare.But....
    I ain't got it anymore cause hard time took the best of me.However.Thats Life.Best wishes and blessings for your future plans and greetings from germany🇩🇪to the UK🇬🇧✌
