Nice. McLaughlin is probably one of the best players ever technically, I find him really bland to listen to though. Funnily enough Jeff Beck calls him the greatest player alive;D Each their own, these are a few of my fav's. You play right Brockton?

I suggest starting with some basic chords (unless your surname is King) after learning how to tune and hold the instrument. You could do worse than look up a Mr Burt Weedon and give yourself a day to master the basics. Also make sure you are wearing a shiny new silver whistle and a pink shirt and tie.

These aren't live or anything, but two of my favourite things ever written for the guitar. \

If you really like that style, check out guys like Sylvester Weaver, Furry Lewis, Bukka White, John Hurt, Willie McTell etc. Legends.

Eric Clapton, Brian May, Sting, Pete Townshend, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and countless others were all "taught" by this man.........what a musical influence on everybody he had.Quote:

He is using a Gibson Dobro Resonator guitar acoustically, there are absolutely no reverb or other effects at all. The conical resonator plate on the guitar is designed to both amlify and resonate. They have been around since 1928. I have worked with a close friend who plays great slide and Dobro but his YouTube is down at the moment. Here are a couple track from an album we made together a couple of years ago called "Ghost on your Shoulder" which you can buy here ;DQuote:

nice and dreamy and dark.....like that 6/8 ride cymbal in Seven Things good work and nice piano there in the 1st tune. Dobro has nice flange effect it seems in the left channel on both tunesQuote:

@Greenbeanz - your man there is a Mark Lanegan fan, right? Good stuff
Thanks @Fenster and @brocktonblockbust. The whole "ghost" album is a concept thing which flows from track to track with acousmatic and musical links in between songs, including some field recordings I made in Chichen Itza and other Mayan temples as well as here in the UK.The 6/8 thing on Seven Things really threw me at first. I am not a drummer ( I started off learning to play keys and then started performing as a bass player and singer ) so I struggled with that .The Mark Lanegan thing I am not sure about. I know Nick, like Lanegan, is a big fan of Leadbelly and a lot of the early Blues Pioneers as well as sub pop and Grunge acts, so he may well be. He was in an acoustic psychadelic band I did projections for, that I used to manually trigger from old VCRS on stacks of old colour TV's but when the band evolved into more of a punk/techno/psychadelic crossover thing he left to do his own solo and band stuff.

Mick Green, Rip.
If you love rhythm or lead play you'll see the two things combined here in the tightest rock n roll three piece ever, a rare treat.
