[archtopbrownie]

Not a problem. Thanks.

[bugsunplugged]

Nigerian Princess email. Yes. THAT and working in "troglodite" REALLY made me smile.

[archtopbrownie]

Hey, if Warren Zevon could work "brucellosis" into a song, why not "troglodite" ? :o) Glad you liked this one.

[AcousticPhases]

great rhythum, nice composition, I enjoyed th lyrics, all in all a really good song.

[archtopbrownie]

Thank you Sir. :o)

[TheFolksinger]

Fine, fine! Five stars.

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks very much Bill. You are obviously a student of music and I appreciate your comment very much. Ciao!

[bigbeninjax]

Lance, sounds like you got them Stimulus Package Blues again.....nasty stuff. Me....I'm waiting for the first of the month for my gov'mint check......

[archtopbrownie]

I'm glad to hear you're gettin' some mailbox money my friend. Cheers!

[bigbeninjax]

Maybe Obama will come up with an insurance plan to cover the blues, too! Salud, bud!

[archtopbrownie]

If socialism produces all those beautiful Scandinavian women I'm all for it. That's why they can't play the blues in those countries... they're too happy. So I win either way, Obama's bill passes and we get beautiful women... it doesn't, we remain the best country for the blues on the planet. 'o)

[sabbia12]

Christopher - I really appreciate you're enthusiasm. If you want to share this around you certainly have my permission and if you want to make an mp3 of it, feel free to do that too. If you want to hear a truly great guitarist check out Tommy Emmanuel in my favorites. You'll love him.

[MisterVirtual]

Lance,

Great tune! I've listened to this several times.

Please keep 'em coming.

[archtopbrownie]

Repeats are the highest compliment... thanks so much. :o)

Peace to You and Yours My Friend!

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Ted. Long time no see. Hope your travels lately have been joyous and inspiring.

[archtopbrownie]

MD - Thanks Man. Glad to receive the honor. :o)

[wizardeal]

This is awesome, although, I only get bills in the mail these days...I told the last collector, look, if you were sending me money in the mail I wouldn't call you 3 thousand times a day asking where the money is

[archtopbrownie]

LOL - Here's a wish that you can get in on some of the money that Nigerian Princess has been giving away over the last 5 years. You should look into it 'o).... not.

[wizardeal]

I gave all my money to a venetian princess, happens ev'ry time

[onkelbuke]

, what an great tune!! Great song°°°°°

( your voice reminds me a bit on Brad Campels singing) really really GREAT!

Cheers, Chris

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Chris - nice to be compared to someone as good as Brad :o)

[archtopbrownie]

That's the sign of a good songwriter in my book. Thanks for dropping by and keeping the connection going.

[daviemcf]

What a fantastic original Lance,I would've loved to play slide to this one man,sorry the comment's late!

[archtopbrownie]

It's not too late. If you want I'll send you the file and we can re post it on your site.

[daviemcf]

That would be great Lance!

[archtopbrownie]

I can send it without my electric guitar part in it so you'll have plenty of room to do your thing.

[mindovermatter2009]

You are just wonderful to listen to Sir!!! Could listen to your voice all day/night. Want to go to one of your concerts. mhm.!! Love the picking and grinning. Great energy..yup!!

Love it! : ))))) Gotta get me some mailbox money.lol.

great licks. yipes. very cool!

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Lisa - I'm outa Chicago. If you're close by let me know and I'll let you know where I'm performing. Best wishes. - Archtop.

[dmio2]

Fun tune, very cool. Great guitar work. Nigerian prince lol.

[archtopbrownie]

Hey Dan... thanks. I hope the Nigerian Princess has a couple hundred thousand for you as well. 'o)

[RLSguitar]

Great playing brother! Luv dem blues, even if they're silly...

[archtopbrownie]

Hey Robert... been a long time. Hope all is well. Love it when a great player like yourself listens and comments. Thanks. Hope all is well with you and yours.

[archtopbrownie]

I love my Taylor. With the expression system and a good PA you can get so many different sounds out of it. I play electric too but since getting this guitar it is my guitar of choice. I'm flattered you want to learn some of my licks. Thanks.

[DiaryofaMadman1982]

This is FREAKING awesome!!!! I love that intro, and those lyrics are SOOOOOOOOOOO Bluesy!!! You are king!!!

[archtopbrownie]

Wow! Can't tell you how good a comment like this makes a guy feel. Thanks.

[Rickghostrider]

Way cool! Love it. Five and faved and you have a new subscriber.

[archtopbrownie]

Couldn't ask for more than that. Thanks Rick. If you'd like more of my blues I'll send you a few links. Let me know. Ciao!

[Rickghostrider]

I would appreciate that.

Thanks

[celovecernjithekid]

well that's really nice stuff there, and i would like to thank to brad for showing me your channel.

best wishes from me :)

[archtopbrownie]

I'd like to thank Brad too and thanks to you for the nice comment.

[Dianasme]

I am so glad you're making videos again. I really enjoy watching them

[archtopbrownie]

Sure makes it worth while with friends like you dropping by. Thanks.

[TERUKO5]

I really enjoyed this! (Watched it twice!) Taking this for my favourites and leaving you five stars.

[archtopbrownie]

Wow! Can't ask for more than that. Thanks so much.

[Bflatblues55]

I could use some mailbox money, Lance.

You can call it silly but such then, is life, eh?

Still enjoying the hell out of your "Too Busy To Work" CD ... what a great buy that was!

[archtopbrownie]

Carol - So glad to hear you are enjoying the CD... and yes, life is silly. In a crazy world to be thought crazy is to be in fact sane. So here's to silliness. Cheers.

[archtopbrownie]

Through a first class PA the expression system just fills the room. I love it and can only scratch the surface of that universe.

[archtopbrownie]

You want to know my secret Frank?..... the hat. Glad you like the feel. That's what it's about eh? Thanks.

[sharbohemia]

Smart & willy... and feeling it.. feeling those blues! Loved it. (thanks for the send, fingercheese).

~Shaz.

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks for the comment Shaz and thanks to fingercheese for sending you my way. Cheers.

[MrWarute]

Nice Blues!!!

[archtopbrownie]

Thank you Sir.

[sproutcentral]

Good one Lance.

Traditional blues & a current theme.

5*****

Dave.

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Dave. Glad you mentioned the lyric. Cheers.

[TeamCannabis]

Lance, I really like this one, yer checks in the mail... ( ^ 8

[archtopbrownie]

I'll be lookin' for it. :o)

[victorolden]

good blues! 5 stars *****!

[archtopbrownie]

Many thanks! Many thanks!

[WizKil]

Pick that box baby!!! Ya 5*!!!!

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Wiz. Acoustic guitars have a lot going for them. Fun to play. Electrics too... in a different way. Hey! guitars are fun to play. :o)

[chickiesgrettagirl]

awesome!

[archtopbrownie]

Hey thanks.

[Jazzguts]

Well Lance certainly much more technique going on here then "John Lee Hooker" but somehow I have to think on him when listening to this Blues. Good vocals with great feel. man that electric guitar in the background sure has a great down to earth tone (with slight edge) with nice vibrato. You're into this Blues man, really into it,great feel and vibe,saludos Vic.

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks so much Victor. The blues is square one and if I never get off square one... well, I've got that much anyway. Feeling is important to me. So many times I feel really good players are "mailing it in". That's what I love about your playing... the sincerity of every note. Thanks for the comment. Ciao!

[Jazzguts]

Yes Lance like Robin Ford says the Blues ain't no fag or something that passes by,it's a way of life,I believe in that, I know what you mean with mailing in: I rather not post for a while till I have something worthwhile to say, everybody feels the feel in Music but also when it's missing, Saludos Vic.

[archtopbrownie]

Yes, Victor. Sometimes I am tempted to send something out that isn't ready... and I feel that might have been the case here. However, I did about four videos of this and chose this one, with the flaws it has, because it had the best feel. The others might have been cleaner but they were missing something. When you get them both together like you so often do.. the music soars. Chasing those moments does have to be a way of life. You put it so well. Ciao!

[montaramike]

Another great song!

[archtopbrownie]

Many thanks Mike.

[tps607]

Lance...I think they do it with PayPal now.....For a guy with nothing to sing the blues about,you have a damned fine handle on it ...and some pretty slick and quick moves on that guitar.Cheers!

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Tom. Always feel it could be better.. you know how that is. Ciao!

[SnakesBlues]

hey good one!!

the riff its just mindblowing

as usually ..very good song

good luck!

[archtopbrownie]

Thank you my friend. Keep playin' them blues.

[RankAndFileGuy]

Way to go Archie, I really loved this one!

[archtopbrownie]

Noticed you have Ry Cooder, Roy Rogers, Sleepy John and the like all over your channel. Given that I really appreciate your comment. Thanks. :o)

[RankAndFileGuy]

I'm hopelessly in love with the blues, and Ry Cooder's diversified slide style of all genres.

I like listening to you because your music revolves around the blues and american folk, which rarely happens on youtube.

Keep up the good work.

[archtopbrownie]

Man you don't know how much I appreciate that. You have great taste and I'm grateful to be included.

[beachfrontal]

You got 5 stars from me 55555.

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks David  :o)

[Boucrate]

Silly..And not! Great guitar hard loving picking blues like I like lol!

And very Cool performance!

And I dig your hat;-)

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Bou. I've pretty much decided I'll never be a clean player... so, go for dirty!!

[montaramike]

You play a lot cleaner than I!

[EdMuirton]

Excellent song and performance Lance! Most enjoyed Sir! Cheers!

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Ed. We old rock and blues guys have to stick together.

[carvetop01]

Lance,

I like this! stylin hat! Great groove. Nice touch using a minor for the IV chord. Well done.

allen

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Allen. Your opinion means a lot to me. I got to playing around with this and decided to post it. Now it's back to studying jazz chords.

[carvetop01]

Lance,

Watch out man. Those Jazz chords will keep you up at night! I don't care how perfect your marriage is, she WILL get tired of them.

allen

[archtopbrownie]

LOL - ok Allen, I'll be careful. I figure if I study and play enough of them I can get twice as many people ignoring me as I have now!

[carvetop01]

:O)

[bios36]

Original blues my friend, sounds good!

Rick

[archtopbrownie]

Thanks Rick. Alway appreciate your dropping by.

[grandplans]

that was very cool. Gosh, I have a sudden urge to check my mail. On never knows!

[archtopbrownie]

That's right Brian... check out that Nigerian princess. She may cut you in for a hundred thousand or so. 'o)

[Lillemy1]

wow, that was so cool.
