TNT - Ton Van Bergeyk - Acoustic Fingerpicking Jazz/Blues

My take at this Ton Van Bergeyk composition, which is clearly influenced by Blind Blake and Lonnie Johnson.
I took some liberties but kept Ton's speed, well, I'm 3 seconds slower...

The song was recorded on a Kicking Mule lp called "Novelty Guitar Instrumentals".
It has been reissued and comes with a pdf file that contains tablature for most of the songs.

Ton is alive and well and still plays guitar, not well but very, very, very well.
Check out his site on "dailymotions"
Here's his "Weekend Blues", that's not only great picking but great singing as well.

Also check out "Fruit Fly Boogie" and "Blind Baking Beans"...wow, makes you feel very humble.

TNT or Dynamite suits me well as a Swede. Ya, I'm thinking of Alfred Nobel.

Sorry to say Daddy, you have no chance to get the Nobel Price, but I give you 5 stars up and PEACE !

Take Care !

Really, no chance....that's a bummer...it's about time they start with a Nobel Price for music!

[kickingmule]

@daddystovepipe Well, Daddy, I can tell you there is a price in Sweden, called The Polar Price, introduced by Stig Anderson, the Manager of ABBA !

Its a Music Price and I believe your chances are good getting IT !

Peace my Friend !

Go for IT !
