the fabulous thunderbirds - wait on time
intro & solo
love jimmie vaughans playing.
Thanks duke I love sitting down working out these solos they're great fun to play plus you learn a ton from them. I've a wee question for you if you don't mind. I'm learning the guitar parts on Kim Wilson's Baby please don't lie to me. just wondering if that's you playing on there. The guitars are superb on it Sounds like your playing.
Vinny...thanks again...skip's song are too much complicated...I've tried to do my best. Above all the delta blues mucisians, he's my favorite. He was a genious..as far as I know, Mississipi John hurt, used to talk in this terms about Skip James...I like everything of his music...the voice, the way he picks the strings, composition...there's a video uploaded in youtube where skip james is playin devil got my woman...in the room all the greatest..mississippi john hurt,howlin wolf...I'm sure you already know this video...maybe the others...who knows...
If Skip james died at 27 years old, it would have been a complete different story...
Yes I've seen this many times. Skip James had not even played the guitar much for many years when he was re-discovered. This was made in Newport at the Folk Festival where he made a big impression. Yes, what he plays here is very complex, and he really mastered that tuning. But I don't think his version of Cypress Grove is as complicated as this. I think your version is very close. But I agree, he is most unique.
Another non-Blues submission. My version of George Harrison's solo from "Old Brown Shoe" by The Beatles.
What's the blues scene over there like? I stay about 10 mile out from Glasgow. no many real blues bands about here. Well known that a Know of anyway. Do you play in a band.
There are a few good blues festivals through out the year, a couple local blues bands and there is a monthly blues jam near me.
I am not in a band, although I would like to find a few people to jam with regulary as I think it will help my playing.
You should get yourself into a band that'll bring your playing on. Stick an add on gumtree or ask about at a jam session. I've played in a load of bands over the years. trying to get a band going the now but all the bands that say they're blues are really just rock bands who play a few blues numbers or even look out for singer/ guitarist looking for a harp player
Gumtree hasn't been too successfull, but I am always looking out for someone at the jam. I think it would help if I could sing so that is something need to work on.
Little martha on Open G Dobro; this is a 1 guitar arrangement I've been refining for a while. Hope you like it, and sorry for my noob video skillz
So many great posts from all the artists here. I have really enjoyed your performances. So much talent!
