didn't he die in a car accident? my fathers friend was best friends with him in college and said that a few weeks after he made this wydam hill sampler he died in a bad car accident.
I think this video was made sometime in the 80s, but I'm just going by the hairstyles - other videos from around that time had the dreds. He lost the dreds in the 90s and later cut his hair very short... j
Michael Hedges never had a Facebook page before. So I decided to start my own. Just go ahead and type in "Michael Hedges" in the search box and you'll see the page: "Michael Hedges: The Guitarist from Another Planet". I want to see if Hedges's fanbase is still out there somewhere. Long live Hedges!
I saw Michael Hedges at the Ryman Auditorium. I was unfamiliar with his work, unprepared for the beauty of his music, and blown away by the jaw dropping talent he had in spades. I had never heard anyone play like that, nor could I have even conceived such talent existed. Hedges was one of a kind, so full of life, a true genius. He had God given gifts we mortals don't share. I miss him big time. Peace.
This takes me back to when my hubby (of 15 years) met. How can I add this to my windows media player to watch & listen to? Please help! I NEED this song! :)
If the sound is good enough here, download a free program called "Wavepad" get it recording, then play the vid. It records anything as you hear it, and you can name/save it.
i love this frikin guy.. like.. seriously.. its son hard to find artists that can play like that and still sing.. i know i can't sing and do it at the same time.. i'm gonna tho..
The song is called "Follow Through", and this is from the 1986 Windham Hill In Concert video. The reason you see different footage is that it was filmed in LA at a soundstage and also at Red Rocks in CO (check his website for all the info).
A somewhat different version shows up on his 1994 album Road to Return.
Somebody help me out here; This isn't the Windham hill concert video. Well it is, at the end, when he's obviously in a differrnt hall, wearing a different shirt, et c. This looks like some TV-studio performance. Even on this, I think the sound is better than the Windham Hill video. I've always liked this arrangment better. Used it for a play I wrote, but I had to use the album version for quality reasons.
This just walks all over the album version that I have. It's good his voice comes across well, he was singing well that night. Contrary to a lot of people's opinions I really don't think Mike had that good of voice but it was in good contrast to his compositions that he wrote some nice songs. Incredibly talented person. I'm glad I found him.
You can get this on a dvd called " windham hill in concert ". I had to get it on e-bay because it's out of print but there are some copies out there. Great video.
Did Michael Hedges ever record this to a CD? Or is this just from a show? Who does the original of this song? What is the name of it? I can't find a copy on iTunes anywhere.
He recorded it on his 1994 album "Road to return". But it always sounds better 'Live' when he performs it all by himself than the arrangement on that album.
what is this tune?

the numbers represent on which octave the string is on. for example, B3 would be tuned an octave higher than B2, although it's still a B.
