From Milan Italy here is a nice looking Gibson J-185 vintage sunburst playing a masterpiece Robert Johnson song in a open G ( D B G D G D ) tuning :-)

TERRAPLANE BLUES




And I feel so lonesome, you hear me when I moan
When I feel so lonesome, you hear me when I moan,
Who been drivin' my Terraplane now, you since I been gone.

Said I flash your lights mama, you horn won't even blow
I even flash my lights, mama, this horn won't even blow,
Got a short in this connection, well babe it's way down below.

I'm goin' heist your hood mama, I'm bound to check your oil
I'm goin' heist your hood mama, I'm bound to check your oil,
I got a woman that I'm lovin', way down in Arkansas.

Coils ain't even buzzin', generator won't get the spark
Motor's in a bad condition, you gotta have these batteries charged,
I'm cryin' pleease, pleease don't do me wrong,
Who been drivin' my Terraplane now, you since I been gone.

Mr. highway man, please don't block the road
Mmm mmm mmm, please don't block the road,
'Cause she's reachin' a cold one hundred, and I'm booked and I got to go.

Mmm mmm mmm, mmm mmm
Mmm mmm mmm, you hear me weep and moan,
Been drivin' my Terraplane now, you since I been gone.

I'm gon' get down in this connection, keep on tanglin' with your wires
Get down in this connection, keep on tanglin' with these wires,
When I mash down on your little starter, your spark plug will give me fire.

  • Anche io suono Delta ed ho il mio myspace...purtroppo i pezzi che ho caricato sono molto vecchi e mal fatti e non ci sono neanche quelli con la resofonica..

    una curiosità..quanto l'hai pagata quella chitarra? sembra che abbia proprio un bel suono!!!

    Anche io uso quello slide...tu sai farteli in vetro? Se non vai sempre sul mio space..c'e scritto come farli..metti AlessandroDeltaBlues su Google e lo troverai facilmente ma ti avviso..il canto è il mio punto debole!

    Buon Delta :)

  • Ciao Alessandro, grazie per i tuoi commenti e suggerimenti. Siccome nn sono un professionista ho suonato quello che mi veniva senza intenti filologici. Mi rendo conto del fatto che il mio sia un work in progress, ho ancora parecchio spazio per migliorare la parte strumentale e quella cantata. La j-185 costa qui a Milano attorno ai 1600 euro. Non è malaccio. Trattandosi di uno strumento con fondo e fasce in acero risulta essere abbastanza squillante e nervosetta. Un salutone! Ariberto.

  • complimenti.....ottima cover....

  • Grazie mille!

    Un saluto da Milano.

  • Wow, a great Job!

  • excellnt well done

  • Superb cover , my hat s on to you sir !!!!

  • I like the way you play and the nice bluesy tone you get playing a jumbo.

  • A Gibson J185 deserves a good owner and yours certainly has one, Ariberto. Nice touch having RJ's photo watching over you as you play, too. Bravo, molto bene!

  • Fantastic cover there sir, much applause!

  • Wow, that was powerful. Also, I covet that delicious guitar. 

  • se riesci ad inserire quelle piccole "dilatazioni" e brevi "rincorse" ritmiche che determinano lo stile di rj e che creano quella tipica suspense vai molto vicino all'originale.

  • ottimo - veramente molto bravo!

  • one of my favourite Johnson songs. really good cover.
