Listening to this (several times) I hear an instrument sounding “autoharp-ish” on breaks. What/who am I hearing?

That is Danny Cox doing some pretty amazing strumming on his acoustic guitar! AND he is intentionally trying to sound like an Autoharp, taking his inspiration from listening to Stewart's playing on the tune on the "Speechless" album. Isn't that a hoot? I love it.

I thought that might be the case. That’s really amazing.

You might enjoy this -- it's an earlier take care on the tune from the previous week. Danny and Randy had just started practicing the tune earlier that week and this is the first take on the tune.
