Das Loch in der Banane

[willguitarup]

Beautifull!!

[Silvershadow196]

Ich kenne das Stück noch aus meiner Kindheit. Da lief es öfters als Pausenfüller beim NDR zwischen 2 Sendungen als Hintergrundmusik bei einem Ballon, aufr dessen Hülle NDR gestanden hat.

Aber wie es heißt.......das habe ich erst zufällig vor einigen Tagen erfahren, weil ich nach etwas anderem gesucht habe!!!

So kanns gehen!

Ich wußte als Kind auch nicht, wie die Musik für manche Werbespots zustande kommt!

Z.B. die Gard-Werbung.....das war Move on von Abba.



[Yabe55]

Gross-artig!!!

Hallo Martin

Gestern bin ich mit Ruth Iseli zusammen gesessen, - habe ihr meine neue Gold Tone gezeigt (... bin fortgeschr. Anfänger, eigentlich Gitarrist..).Siei hat sie mir deine Version der "Banane" vorgestellt und mir vorgeschlagen, das Stück als Duett einzustudieren. Ich bin voll begeistert. Eine wunderschöne Version!!! Ich habe mich durch deine Stücke geklickt und bin hell begeistert von deinem Spiel. Falls ihr wieder einen Workshop plant, ich wäre gerne dabei .

Keep pickin'

Dir und Ruth ? Freu mich drauf ! ;-)

cheers

[eilander71]

Ich mag den Dobro Sound unheimlich gerne. Und Klaus Wilands "Loch in der Banane" ist schon immer eines meiner Lieblingslieder gewesen. Kommen erinnerungen an meine Kindheit hoch der NDR Pausenballon. Aber das ist eine noch viel viel schönere Version. Danke fürs einstellen :))

[jedman322]

this is why i love dobro guitar!!

[maartenbmx]

This is really good! Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of musical art!

[herbhamtaylor]

Hey, ich wusste gar nicht, dass ein Cowboy das Loch in die Banane geschossen hat!

Also... Cowboy, Banane, Loch, --> Gitarre?

[ivepickedcotton1]

Wow!

[owlet1963]

really cool rendition of a really awesome piece of guitar!!!

[Derweiland]

What a great version of my music! the second great lapsteel version. Would it trouble you to call it by it's name? "das Loch in der Banana" and I'd be honored if you post it on my "Hole in the Banana Page" Truly great version. Klaus

[MartinGross]

@Derweiland

Klaus, habe kein Problem den Titel zu nennen wie er schon immer heißt.

Ich freue mich, daß Du meine lap style Version magst.

cheers

Martin

[Derweiland]

@MartinGross would be so good if you posted it as a response on my channel...an honor, it really is a great version, especially the added "tail" to the "Abgang" if you know what I mean. Wanna learn that part! lol gruesse Klaus

[MartinGross]

@Derweiland

Klaus, ich schicke sehr gerne ein response auf Deinen channel sobald ich herausgefunden habe wie das funktioniert. Ich habe es nicht so mit der technischen Kommunikation über das Netz. Ich finde es aber heraus, keine Sorge.

Die Ehre ist ganz auf meiner Seite.

cheers

Martin

[cfolz]

[romancitoG]

i have been working on this open e thing off and on for a while. you have inspired me to finish it and make it real.

thank you!

[andregarai]

Unbelievable good!

[goffbum]

Martin, you are one of the best in the world.......

[railroad4u]

What were you doing when you were mashing on the strings above the bridge at the very end of the song?? You are a world class steel man!! I envy you for your talent!! You're Great!! I can't wait for you to do Flatt Lonesome!!!

[MartinGross]

I´m trying to give that last chord a little vibrato

[IBG67]

absolutely, amazing. just wonderful.

[maaaaaaq]

there are 2 guitar-tracks, or am i deaf? ;-)

[MartinGross]

You are not deaf :-)

Read the very first comment to that tune.

cheers

[pimple22]

that sound is truly amazing your style is brilliant, and that's what every player should try to achieve there own style, you have got that and much more well done, pimple22 is amazed and blown away by your magic on that amazing sounding instrument.

[Riverboy1986]

Awesome!

[owlet1963]

LOL, YOUR title sounds MUCH better than the orginal title! If my mind serves me right, it is called " das Loch in der Banane" ( the hole in the banana...) and is played by Klaus Weiland. your version is cool though!

[Derweiland]

@owlet1963 Oh it is more than cool....I too think it is the best version....dammit! Don't know how to play lapsteel....dammit!

[couchpotato4356]

[MartinGross]

It´s a Scheerhorn

[cdaitsch]

[mansionon]

I just got adicted to the Dobro sound.I'm going downtown now to buy one . Thank you for you insrpiration

[zloop]

is it two tracks with dobro? the last note sounds like a steel guitar sliding up somewhere between the notes of the dobro!?

once again,,, amazing song, the calmness it brings!

[MartinGross]

yes there are two tracks with the dobro. That last note that sounds like a steel guitar is on the other track( not visibly )

[dfkitch]

Herr Gross, I just bought my first resophonic guitar, a 1935 square neck...while surfing for some lessons on YouTube, instead I find this incredible body of work that you have made available to the world! Thank you!

[yolemafreux]

Argh ! Freaking genius on his way ...

So huge !

[Gravelroots]

Absolutely beautiful. Incredibly skilled player. Brings a lot to the table.

[steelg39]

This is one of the most beautiful tunes I have heard and I have heard a lot! It really flowed.

[zloop]

wonderful piece and performance!

[CoolSpuds]

I just read all of the comments and found your explanation of the harmony. So you don't need to reply to my previous question. Thanks again for your videos. I have emailed your site to a friend who plays Dobro.

[CoolSpuds]

Great video, thanks for posting. 6 stars out of 5! I was curious too about the harmony line. How is that achieved?

[bonysub]

that harmony line was driving me crazy. Thanks for the explanation. Bob

[brazilgrass]

Awesome.

I was already a big fan, now I'm sold.

[Adairpsg]

[dave1935]

[yolemafreux]

[joherf]

Echt Klasse !!!

[vleb]

Beautiful and sweet one ! Love it.

[artfixrog]

great tune Martin, what are you using for effects ? flanger ?

[MartinGross]

artfixrog,

no flanger, just a little reverb.

[MartinGross]

this composition by Klaus Weiland, originaly a ballad for acoustic guitar, is called "das Loch in der Banane". I´ve rearranged it slightly and play it here on the Scheerhorn in D tuning. After one third of the tune I also added a harmonie line witch is played with the Meredith guitar.
