  • im gonna fix up my old harmony acoustic and start playin ragtime,so awsome!!!

  • That was great!

  • you must be an Aussie or Am I Wrong. But I'm certain about your ability. Blind Blake is my all time favorite guitarist, here was a bloke who seemed way ahead of his time, just think of playing policy blues's solo, he attacks it like he's an acoustic Buddy Guy or even an Angus, anyway Blake changed my musical direction 18 years ago, now I just Specialise in Pre-50's blues except at the monthly local blues jam where nobody else Knows anything but post Muddy. well done hope we meet some day.

  • @gregluland you're wrong I'm afraid, i'm in lil' ol' England :-) Blake is beyond compare, people pigeon-hole him as some sort of raggy trickster but the duets with Spand and stuff like Policy are just out there. Amazing.

  • I really like your sound and your style. I've been watching this vid for more than a year and it never bores me from overuse. Thanks!

  • @MrJimc2 thanks !! :-) I do keep meaning to add more, and redo lots of them as the quality is a bit poor, just finding the time is the hard bit  ! :-( Glad you enjoy it so much, playing it over the years has always been a joy :-)

  • This Is the stuff .... Go for it mate , love it.

  • @Mikey4lock thanks :-)

  • play it like ya love it & love it

    when ya play it!

  • wow, that's just great!

  • very nice playing. This style I can definitely sit and listen to. Great Job!!! I don't play guitar but i do know what I like and what sounds good to me. :)

  • I see you have a great taste, GP :-)

    Not only does my mate HHH play fantastic, he even builds his own guitars as well!

    Ralph also does an awesome version of this one btw. ( did you hear it yet ? ).

    I bet HHH has listened to his version a lot LOL

  • as I told you before, I have friends here that play and they each said they would teach me. as soon as I get a guitar, I may take them up on their offer. It's definitely a great instrument.

  • Great! Thank you.

  • That was awesome!! ~ 5 Stars!!

  • thanks mate :-)

  • Good job, as usual.

  • good work wel played welldone

  • thank you - you are obviously a man with taste :-)

  • im friends with tom

  • yeah I know, I figured that out from your profile :-)

  • lol, and YOU are obviously a man whose main trait of character is his modesty!! ;) nice job on the guitar though! Five stars!

  • WOW.

  • Blind Blake just owns. And remember...he was blind. thats just manly. he was probably drunk a lot too. Drinkin whiskey, playin guitar on his porch, thats a good image

  • Someone find this man a hat, he is a frustrated doffer :-)

  • You got a great feel and great tone. Thank you

  • Good to the last drop!!

  • nice playing, with an authentic "roots-sound" !!

  • Fantastic playing! I definitely hear some of Ton van Bergeyk's Mustard Swing in there! I've got most of the old Kicking Mule records and have transferred them to mp3.

  • Oh I love Ton Van Bergeyk so I am sure some of his playing has rubbed off on me :-) Thanks for the kind comment :-) Those old kicking muile records were a real inspiration to me and I have done likewise with them :-)

  • Interested in swapping what each other doesn't have? I've got 7 LPs. I'm going away for 2 weeks vacation, but if you're interested I'll contact you when I get back. I'm in Scotland BTW.

  • Love this version H! You got that bounce so Blakeyfied!! LOL! Love! And that sound has a great tone!!!...x

  • holy ur the best ive heard play this song ever in my life u are amazing

    could even match up to blind blake himself

  • great stuff!!

  • I bet the tab for that one is about as thick as the St.James version of the Bible! You're an amazing guitar player you'd even out stage John Renbourne!

  • Simply Amazing! If I could play like you!

  • Fancy picking, great!

  • Thank you :-))

  • Outstanding!

  • Wow, cool, HHH !

    Execellent picking - learning all the time here and picking up bits and pieces.

    Thanks for uploading.

    Always interesting to see and hear a new version of this classic.

  • LOL!!! Love H...You caught that Blake Essence...If I close my eyes it could be Blake Himself. Bravo!

  • Really nicely played houndhead will keep checking your stuff out, take care Andy
