Ainslie sings Hurt
Ainslie sings Hurt with dignity and does justice to him musically and artistically. It’s a respectful tribute with superior guitar instrumentation. He captures Hurt’s music closely to the original while making it his own…He has perfectly mastered the lilting, syncopated, alternating bass-picking style of Hurt.
