Something a bit different from our open mic...

Post by Blindboy »

I simply don't have that "country bone"... Can't play it to save my soul. It always comes out sounding like a blues player trying to play country. (imagine that :whistle: )
Any way, one of our guest artists, a local known as Plumber Bob, is a past New Mexico state fiddling champion, and a heck of a guitar player too. He was wringing out his new Tele this night (The night after I nailed my finger), and we tried to keep up with him on this country tune. 12bar regulars should be able to tell my guitar from his. :thumbsup:

Nothing at all wrong with your playing Bb, Merle Haggard eat your heart out, very much enjoyed this.

A bit different indeed! Very enjoyable. Definitely a "Tele" sound to Plumber Bob's guitar. :big_smile:

There's nothing wrong with a bit of blues crossing over into country anyway - they're pretty closely related I suppose. Bb - I think the blues has permeated your playing so successfully that blues has become part of you. That's why you play such damn great blues. :pray:

No Blues, but played wonderful with lots of soul. Great sound, fantastic country style guitar and voice! :bb:
