I could sit here all year and listen to you play. You remind me of Harry Manx. Do you have any stuff I can download to listen to away from YouTube? I just find this incredibly relaxing.
Parts of it remind me of the telemovie they did of Stephen King's 'The Stand'.
Thanks for letting everyone share you love of music.
hi great playing just sort of sounds like what u hear on tv or movie of the deep south liek at the begining of a moive dunno what its called but sounds very much like what u do @3.30 - 3.33 sort of thing but with more dip to it i cant explain it but still sounds good
Ultimate Blues playing bad ass. And mad props the simple blues playing on a simple cigar box guitar with a ghetto slide(<3), and video footage of houses that still hold the past.
aloha, nice guitar.....i just bought a piezo buzzer at radio shack, took it apart and am a bit confused about how to wire it up to work as a pickup for instrument....plus there are three wires on the buzzer, instead of two as with a transducer, so maybe you have some clues as to how to rig it up????....sure would appreciate any clues....mahalo, forest
~smiles~ beautiful piece of work John. I wonder if as well, another time, if the 'slow dragging' of a broken glass along some concrete rounding it's edge could not add to the anticipation somehow. A Beautiful, beautiful sound out of that very beautiful guitar.
I did the same thing, but instead of the tape I rubbed the jagged edges on a brick wall til it got smoother (well, smooth enough so it didn't cut me up!)
