Not exactly blues, but cool anyway...

Post by Blindboy »

I always liked this song. This is the first time we ever played it. I wasn't sure about the lead lick... :whistle:
This is Guy Raper sitting in with us last Monday night.

The nature of an open mic kind of dictates rough performances sometimes... This one wasn't so bad, considering we had never done it before. I am thinking of stealing this tune, and singing it myselfe.

Wow awesome, really enjoyed playing along with this one. Your lead lick was just fine to my ears, especially with it just being flung upon you.
BTW, Had to do a double take...and I didn't notice it last time in the other song...but is that his real name? Guy Raper? :yikes:

So many great uploads, I nearly can't follow... nothing beats a "real" band. Great playing of the whole band, not obvious that it was the first time. :clap:

Not obvious at all that it was the first time of playing it - the lead works for me - just all sounds very natural and "right". :clap: :clap:

Yeah, that's his name.
Thanks guys, glad you liked it. Kind of rough, but fun... This was the end of the night, and my picking fingers were a bit raw, so I found a quarter and used it as a pick (it is round, so my numb finger doesn't hamper me as much). Not used to using a pick these days. :roll: :big_smile:
