12-03-10 The Man Who Sold the World (Nirvana/David Bowie cover)

Originally written and recorded by David Bowie, I based this performance on Nirvana's cover of the song from the "MTV Unplugged in New York" album. Playing the scales while singing is fun!

Great to see back in the saddle again!!

@RHComputerGeek Thanks! Seems like it still fits. :)

I'll forgive you the Star Wars T-Shirt (Dr Who and Star Trek are better imho!) because this is a great cover of aa classic early Bowie song and your guitar playing is impressive! This is going into my Favourites immediately.... thanx for sharing with the world...!

@EmeraldGemstar09 Thanks for letting that slide! Admittedly not a trek fan, but I have been meaning to check into Dr. Who because a large percentage of my nerd friends with similar taste ADORE that show. I lose nerd cred for not knowing the series inside and out.

Thank you very kindly for watching the clip, and for leaving a thoughtful comment!

@acousticsongaday AWESOME!

@acousticsongaday If I can ever get to play a song without curdling milk, I may just put one up. You're a tough act to follow, though...solid cover as always!
