  • Thanks so much for your posts. Brings back memories of sitting round at the Greenman coffee shop listening to acoustic blues and yarning with my mates.

    Cheers

  • @knuckey63 The Greenman coffee shop - sounds good! Glad you liked the playing.

  • Nice work! loved it!

    I can't play with a thumb pick, throws my picking hand out because I anchor my pinky on the table, so I just dig in a bit harder! thumb & 3 fingers for gentle, thumb & 2 fingers for down & dirty! :-)

  • @Lansdownekid Thanks for commenting. I don't use a thumbpick so much now, but it's useful for some tunes on some instruments. It's good to play around and see what happens! Cheers - <}:-)

  • Very good, thumb!

    Sounds more MJH without pick... :-)

    Version with lyrics coming?

  • @MKurki thanks, M. yes, I'm playing less with the pick these days - this is an oldish tape - I have tried it with the lyrics but my voice isn't right - but I'd like to get a good version down some time if I can - who knows? <}:-)

see all
