And this tune was definitely no exception.īut the funny thing about it this time, was that this tune was simple to learn in spite of its complexity. #WIMOWEH TIM WAURICK SEAN DEVINE JACK PINTO HOW TO#"The learning tracks that you made for us of our newest David Wright masterpiece "Go Down, Moses" were just unbelievable!
