I love this tune. I used to accompany a friend on clarinet on it before he passed away. The Duke Robillard version that the OP links to is really nice.
Here’s my attempt on solo guitar. I’ve been doing a lot more gardening than practicing lately, so it’s rough. I’ll try to work on finger mechanics and clean it up.
It's been awhile since i last logged in here, but there's a strange synchronicity in that i was just playing
'If I Had You' a couple of days ago, and here it is as this month's standard...

Yeah Shirley’s an old friend, hung out only this week as a matter of fact. We’ve played together countless times over the years. We’ve definitely DL’d together a few times lol. She’s a beast!

I use the d'addario clip tuner but the tinny one, is the PW-CT-12 Micro Headstock Tuner. I played many times in different conditions and for many concerts with only this tuner and I really loved it!...
