  • How much for the giant mask in the background?

  • @rubyscorner Priceless.

  • Brillant, I bet it sounded even better in real life!!!!

    Is that how Dave Edmunds played it?

    Matt.

  • Thanks for your comments. The notes I am playing are pretty well exactly what you hear on the original record but Dave Edmunds plays the piece in G whereas the original record was tweaked so that it is actually playing F sharp.

  • I learnt to play this from the record in 1968 and because it sounded like F sharp, thats where I taught myself to play it ! So it sounds pretty much the same but I am playing it one fret down from Dave. This means that we are playing Sabre dance in completely different places on the fret board.

    I have put one or two different touches (notably the final chord) but essentially tried to remain faithful to the original.

  • Hi Nick,

    You are a fabulous guitar player, I really liked the piece you played.

  • Thank you!

  • As cool as it gets from the guitar cat of The Orange Illusion 1967/68. Nick Young could have certainly given Eric Clapton a run for his money, had he continued to play in groups. Incidentally; Orange Illusion consisted of Michael Des Barres L/V (went on to form Silverhead) Kit Williams - bass (became a producer for Granada TV) Darryl Read - Drums (became a Rock singer Poet Actor and filmmaker), and Nick Young - lead guitar (who became one of the UK's leading agents for television commercials).

  • Thank you for the thumbs up! I wasn't asked to play at hyperspace - maybe this year?

  • His name is Nicholas Young, he use to play "John DIxon" on The Tomorrow People back in the 70's. It also aired in America on Nickelodeon from the early to mid 1980's.

    Awesome job Nick, who knew "John" had that in him!!! *LOL* Too bad they didn't add that to some of the story lines.
