Fretkillr said on his page that he's doing Doc Watson's version from the early 60's also here on youtube. Fret rules, but Doc is in a league all his own.
I've been trying to learn that 'Merle Travis' style pickin for a while now. It's drivin me nuts. I think that you need two brains. I can do the Bass and the melody...just not at the same time. Nice job dude. Cheers!
mr killr sure gotta deep voice, but I wouldnt be blue playin like that. Check ou Doc Watson DRB posted by dealer0791. unbelievable the sound is just as full and the man uses one finger!
Bring back our professor fuc...g yutub mo..ns your site is full of shity justin bieber covers why you don't remain us???'cause A REAL GOOD MAN try to share and educate millions of musicians?this guy gives you millions of connections and was NOT PAY for that...forget it ???
Bearcat5100...Thank you so much! I' m delighted most of may favourites are here. This is how I would like to be able to play.
Fretkillr...Thanks for the inspiration, the tricks and the style. Your harp is really good too. You got it nailed. Leon Redbone, please be seated next to Fretkillr. TG
please come back fretkillr we are missing you! (and thank you bearcat5100 for uploading, do you know if he will come back?? stupid youtube, made the best leave :( )
ive been watching frettkiller post for 2 years of and on , shame thay unpluged him good guitar player and singer, now for the good news, i think ive found him 99.9 per cent just need some of you to confirm its him the man now gives lesson and advice his you tube site is,little brother blues,just watch his style of play and his voice, especilly playing deep river blues. let me no thanks.
@MrRonmk1 It is not Little Brother. I know LB and while he is very good, they are different folks altogether. LB lives near Atlanta, FK on Long Island.
it is a dam shame that they will pull the plug on a musician of this level. He is not infringing on copyrites unless he records and sells it. totally dishonorable of youtube to pull this kind of crap.
Ya know, I really don't see how they say he has copyrighted material. He is doing covers of songs, some from 30 years ago! A cover is not a copy. At least not the way FretKillr plays. He made each of the covers his own. In many cases, he is better than the original. Youtube really got it wrong by taking off his channel. The guy is great and should be commended. I knew once Google became involved with Youtube, it would get all jacked up. Hey Youtube, you really messed up! Bring him back
I have posted all the ones I know I have. I don't think I had downloaded that one, so I wouldn't have it on my backups. If someone out there some where has it I would be happy to post it. Fretkillr had posted over a 100 videos. I only wish I had kept all of them.
Hi, Thanks for uploading fretkillr. He was an inspiration to me and a lot of other folks. I only found him a couple of months ago. Luckily I did download some of his stuff. I got a few you had. Maybe youtube will relent. This was a great public service.
I cannot imagine what could have ever caused this site to cancel the best thing that ever happenned to it.... I mean....talk about slap your nose to spite your face.... Thanks for posting this video......it helps ease the pain....I feel like I lost a friend...
