"WATERMELON MAN" - HERBIE HANCOCK

HERBIE "BUSTED OUT!" AFTER HIS TIME WITH MILES DAVIS. I WAS LUCKY TO SEE HIM AND THE "HEADHUNTERS" AT "THE LION SHARE" CLUB IN SAN RAFAEL CA. IN THE EARLY 1970'S!!! A "PHENOM" FOR SURE AND A LONG TIME LIVING LEGEND!!! THIS TUNE IS THE EPITOME OF "COOLNESS" I TRIED SOMETHING NEW WITH MY "PEERLESS MONARCH" ARCHTOP. ON CHORUS 3 & 4 I KICKED ON THE "B" (DIRTY) CHANNEL FOR THAT "FAT" HOLLOW BODY SOUND, THINK EARLY LARRY CORYELL, JEFF "SKUNK" BAXTER, AND MY ALL TIME FAVORITE, "TERRY HAGGERTY" PARTICULARLY HIS WORK WITH THE BAY AREA GREATEST "UNKNOWN BAND IN THE WORLD" (BILL GRAHAM SAID THAT) "THE SONS OF CHAMPLIN" SEARCH ALBUMS "LOOSEN UP NATURALLY" & "WELCOME TO THE DANCE" BOTH ARE AWESOME!!! THE RYTHMN SECTION IS BY WWW.JAMEYAEBERSOLD.COM - I DIG HOW JAMEY KICKS IT UP A NOTCH ON THE FINAL (2) HEADS & OUT!!! HAVE A GREAT SUPER BOWL SUNDAY, AND THANKS FOR LOOKING IN, ALOHA, BEAR

Your not Jan Akkermann are you?!"?!

Saw the post down below and thought dont be stupid, Simon(me) and yet the more I look at you the more I get a funny feeling to ask this ridiculous question.

The guitar playing is , well, amazing.

Whoever you really are your very good (understatement, I 'm English!).

If you are Jan I wont tell anyone.

It'll be our secret! lol!

Cheers, Mr Cool.

Simon.

Love the sound you got. Your style is much like my friend. His tone's cool, but not where your tone is. What other equipment's hiding out of frame?
