Bottleneck Slide Guitar Blues Train Blues

Nice tune.

[gera1690]

Very nice I like how you alternate the basses and play high stuff sounds really good

[jackn1969]

@gera1690 Hi, thanks. It takes a wee bit of practice to get that alternating bass going, once used to it you can knock out some wicked tunes, almost limitless what you can play too.

Check out my honky Tonk Train song still needs a little TLC maybe a couple of more takes. user name gera1690

The constant low D with thumb is great. I hear bits of "Vastapol" and "John Henry" in there. Very traditional uses of open-D.

[jackn1969]

Hey thanks for that! Well spotted too, one of the very first tunes I learned to play was John Henry on the 5 string banjo in d tuning!!! I took the same approach for this tune.

when you first started out, I said wtf, then I was pleasantly surprized--nice. next time, try to get a close up of playing.

[jackn1969]

hi, thanks, yep i probably shouldve got straight into the tune and made the intro a bit shorter, but im glad you liked the tune anyway.

[Roosterchaps]

Boy, howdy! Nice pickin'.

[flickofdaswitch]

yyyyyeah boy

[GlennnD]

awesome playing ! what is this song ?

[jackn1969]

Hi, thanks for that, I'm glad you liked it. I based this on a tune i heard a long time ago i think it was called Express Train Blues by Steve Phillips, the tune stuck with me and i put this together based on what i could remember, guitar is in D tuning if that also helps.

[GlennnD]

I Realy like the 0:50 to 1:00 Part.
