Shamon Walker - Walking in Memphis (Acoustic Cover)

Marc Cohn - Walking in Memphis by Shamon Walker.
I show you how to play it at the end.

At 4:00min into the video I say the picking on the first chord is A "E" B that is not true...I actualy play the A "G" and B strings.

Mark Wade taught me this song. Check him out at http://www.myspace.com/markwadetunes

[Geneticker]

that's not a fag whisper song and you made to many theatrical grimace

P.S. your shirt is to small^^

[walksham]

@Geneticker that was a very thorough and painstakingly accurate depiction of my overall attire and performance. Well done.

[Laenera]

im doing this as a school project thing in music could you show on a video how to do that thing you do with your fingers on the strings? not the chords.

[walksham]

@Laenera at the end of the video i spend about 2 or 3 minutes explaining each string that is plucked in order. If this doesn't help you...if you have skype I can teach you on that.

Shamon you are the shit bud, I remember when you first started recording songs back when you worked with me in my lab. Kick ass bud, hope things are going well in grad school!!!

[DuelCross]

Loved it man. Thanks!

[jazzbofandango]

I like your version of WiM. Good stuff.

[JK29999]

@Geneticker - you nasty spiteful little git! I know this is now a year old - but what's your problem? Do you think you gain something by being so harsh?! Does it make you feel clever? I bet little else does...

@walksham - again a year old now but I quite enjoyed this - not superb, but quite pleasant. I skipped all the other covers and settled on this one.

so damn gay!...sing louder you idiot!

[markmarktarmann]

@markmarktarmann see, you all say "your" instead' you're' so often, you got even me using it ass backwards now. damn.

[markmarktarmann]

@walksham since i am only capable of "fag whisper" singing, i find you're singing quite powerful. and since i'm way too old to get away with the very hip ensemble, i hate you, as only the old can hate the young. love your understated response

to the critique. a wonderful expansion on "whatever dude". nice to see some of our youth can still twist words into barbs , creatively.

thou does vell to the guitar

First, my personal thanks for taking the time to upload. I thought you're interpretation was great, your vocals brought a haunting and yearning feel, which I think brought a new perspective of the song (and I'm old enough to remember this song when it ORIGINALLY played on the radio)! I learned a new song tonight and I hope that when I play it, I can do justice to YOUR version.

As far as all the unnecessary brutal criticism, you and I both know that you didn't play it for THEM anyway!

Are you wearing a wristband from Kahneeta? lol
