Here is my rendition of Tony's arrangement of Ed Saindon's beautiful tune, Life's Blessing.
I am still working on it, but if I waited until it was perfect, it would never get posted. I think I played it over 100 times and here is my best…
Man check out the playing on this demo. Listen to David play the first piece. The playing is absolutely incredible. The second piece is pretty spectacular as well.

Some Early thoughts on Ed's tune 'Life's Blessing'.
Hopefully some of you are working on it and will post your versions. Ed has a video version of it coming he told me! That should be great!
