Stray Cat Strut - The Stray Cats Cover by Barry Harrell - In awe of Brian Stezer

I play acoustic guitar and have messed with an electric or two over the years - but I always gave up. I finally decided that I was going to learn Stray Cat Strut - yes, a crazy song to pick as ones first to learn on an electric - but I always wanted to learn this song, so here it is. This is my first real electric guitar and amp too. The guitar is a Taylor T3B and I am using a Fender Classic Reverb and a Two Timer peddle for the slap-back echo sound. Anyway, please excuse the mistakes as this is honestly the first full song I have ever played on an electric. It took me about two months to learn it and to figure out how to get the sound right. Yea, the sound can be a lot better, but oh well, I think it sounds OK. Hope you like it Mom.
My name is Barry and my mother lives in another state and she is disabled. She likes to hear me sing and we do not get to see each other very often, so I am making some videos for her. They are not intended to be teaching videos or anything like that, just something for her to be able to watch her son sing. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the song.
