You Don't Have To Know The Words (to sing the blues) - Acoustic Blues - Mike Dowling cover

A contemporary blues song, composed by Mike and Jan Dowling.
I learned it from his first cd called "Swamp Dog Blues" (one of the best fingerpicking blues cd's I know - it has everything : slide and fingerpicking instrumentals, songs that move you, songs that make you smile...all presented with style and finesse),

Key of E, standard tuning

I'm playing my Grand Concert made by David Newton.

Carl, terug een pareltje! Die sok op je arm... verband? of protectie voor de gitaar?

@arrenbie

thanks Ralph, de sok, met ingenaaid kussentje, is bescherming hoor; het was een warme dag toen ik dat filmpje opnam.

Who said the blues are dead? Your life's story is etched on your face and in your fingers, loved the tune. The kind of music you're hearing on the inside when you turn 8's and aces.
