Great stuff, One minor but vitally important point, that long time aficionados here probably know, especially our Charming modem maderator person Charlene,. for some obscurely inexplicable reason that site owner Florian has never addressed if you simply copy and paste in aYouTube video's URL from the YT page's address bar then originally the forum software would immediately display the video nicely embedded within your message, but a couple of years ago (I fancy around the time that YouTube modified the format of the embed code that they provide for every video under their "share" facility the previously most satisfactory provision stopped working. However clever clogs Char then discovered that if you simply deleted the "s" in the "https" that starts off the URL the video would then display so I will try that here with your video to make the point:-
Actual non embedding URL:-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UryksObWabQ
repeat with the "s" deleted
When I had played horizonfound's video on YouTube as is usual it continued with the next video in YouTube's helpful suggestion list. For me just now this was a fine demonstration by a "Beat" guy with the confident albeit debatable title of "TOP 20 ACOUSTIC GUITAR INTROS OF ALL TIME"

It got me thinking that possibly horizonfound or another guitar virtuoso here could attempt to create a comparable video (or at least a listing of "The Top 20 (-or 10) Intros of Lightfoot songs by Red Shea" alternatively members here could suggest their own choices, noting that if it's to be a video with a commentary hopefully whoever makes it will think of some other way to introduce them instead of the boring repetition of "coming in at number.."!! I intend posting a link to this thread on Facebook probably on the Timeline on Carter Lancaster's page
