Re: Not Blues - but a Video I spent a LONG time on!
You may beat me, but I never really got into the Beatles (except the one song with EC). I know there were great, played lots of gigs before getting famous (especially here in Germany), but their music does not touch me :icon_whoknows: . Don't know why. Unbelievable, but I don't even have a Beatles ...

Re: Not Blues - but a Video I spent a LONG time on!
Thanks Hans and Viking Blues! I know that it's not just the physical source of the sound that matters - but that's correct that there are a BUNCH of "clone Covers' (including photos - almost all of which are accessible from multiple sources) of SFF on YouTube (some with the person singing the f...

Not Blues - but a Video I spent a LONG time on!
This is a video that I started about 5 years ago, and only worked on now and then until early December ... but while I had set myself a deadline of about a week (hint) to get this done and UP somewhere.... it took me forever, for reasons I'll explain after you watch it! It's not Blues, it's a Tribut...

Re: Open Mic Blues...
KEWL!! (never actually used that spelling of Cool before, but I've seen it used and just felt like it today.. :) ) That is what makes a GREAT road worthy guitar indeed!
