Disco Reggae Gunja Beat

My dad performing probably the weirdest title I've ever heard.. but I simply love his voice & playing.
This was filmed on 2nd July 07, he asked me not to put it up because he'd been working all day with stone (dad is a stonemason) and his fingers were all hard & cut up and covered in dirt & cement & sand... etc
Pretty damned good for bad fingers & hands.
He wants to re-do this, but he hasn't been up since, so he suffers the embarrassment of "semi-good" rather than F-n excellent.
I was worried someone would knock on the door to tell us to shut up, my camera does NOT give him justice, his voice powered through the apartment as if I had him infront of a mic with speakers in every nook & cranny, it boomed & echoed LOUD and CLEAR.

Thanks Alana! I love it when dad plays.

I bought a guitar for him to keep at my place just so I could hear him play all the time.

In Newport it was so fantastic - it would echo along the water!! Unbelievable.

So good to relax to. I used to turn off all the lights and have candles up everywhere.
