Summer of '69 by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance
I lost my voice this summer from laryngitis from a virus I picked up and so was messing with my electric guitars a lot. I kept coming back to "Summer of '69". So in spite of my really being an old folk singer, I am covering Summer of '69 here. In the summer of 1969 my wife and I were 21 years old, engaged to be married, and looking at life with a whole lot of promise. That sort of matches the happy character of this 1985 song from Bryan Adams. I hope you like this. - Glenn

Things We Said Today by Lennon-McCartney (cover)
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Месяц назад
This is early Beatles from their 1964 "Hard Day's Night" album. I've known this song since I started on the guitar when I was 16 years old. I wanted to do something that emphasized the acoustic guitar. This is only 2 1/2 minutes long, short and sweet, a fun song to play as well as upbeat. Thanks for listening! - Glenn
Our House by Graham Nash (guitar cover)
Просмотров 4442 месяца назад
Graham Nash wrote and performed this song on the piano, so I worked out a guitar arrangement that I used here. I have simplified the piano arrangement a little to make it easier to play on the guitar. I've provided chord diagrams and lyrics with the video. Graham Nash played this in the key of A on the piano. I eventually decided to play this for my voice in the key of G, which is capo 5 using ...
Flying Shoes by Townes Van Zandt (cover)

"Flyin' Shoes" was written in 1978. Townes was living near Franklin, TN where a significant US Civil War battle had been fought. It is said that he was thinking about those wounded on the battlefield, waiting for death to come. I found this song mesmerizing to sing. I hope you enjoy this; thank you for listening. - Glenn
"If I Needed You" by Townes Van Zandt (cover)
Просмотров 7893 месяца назад
Structurally, this song is a simple 1,4,5 chord progression, in this case, G, C, D with the capo on the 8th fret where Lyle Lovett played this song. (Townes played this in a lower key, with the capo on the 4th fret.) But by using the Travis pick and picking out pieces of the melody as it's played, it gets more complicated. I heard this recently and was reminded of what a sweet song it was. I ho...
Tunnel 13 by Mark Knopfler (cover)
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.3 месяца назад
"Tunnel 13" is a song from Mark Knopfler's latest 2024 CD "One Deep River," so it's a very recent release. The song struck me because I was well aware of custom, luthier-built guitars using Tunnel 13 redwood tops. Tunnel 13 is an old railroad tunnel in the Siskiyou Mountains of northern California, also the site of a tragic train robbery in 1923 in which four Southern Pacific Railroad workers w...
"She's Come Undone" by Randy Bachman [The Guess Who] (cover)
Просмотров 8324 месяца назад
The song "Undun" was part of a 1969 Guess Who album; I always thought this song was really cool. Recently, I started working on this and finally figured it out. It's a challenge because the tempo is so very fast and both the words and the chord changes come at you at about 90 mph all at the same time. So because of that I am singing to my guitar half the time as I try not to mess up. But it's a...
True Love Will Never Fade by Mark Knopfler (cover)
Просмотров 1 тыс.4 месяца назад
I have always loved the old rock and roll feel of this song, with it's sort of Elvis Presley chord progression. But what really makes this song come alive is Mark Knopfler's beautiful Stratocaster playing behind the acoustic guitar and the mellow vocal line. I hope you enjoy my take on this song. Thank you for listening, and I hope all are well out there. - Glenn
"Boom Like That" by Mark Knopfler (cover)
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.5 месяцев назад
I have always thought that Mark Knopfler's story and his guitar tones were terrific in this 2004 song about Ray Kroc and early McDonald's history. I do not have Ray Kroc's "killer instinct" but I have known a few people who do and this song tells a good story about this kind of personality. I used my Rickenbacker 360 electric 12-string for the rhythm part of this song while Mark Knopfler used a...
Turn the Page by Bob Seger (Cover)

I have always thought this great Bob Seger song was really appealing and interestingly, it's not terribly hard to play and would make a good song for a new guitar player to learn. To help with this, I put up chord diagrams along with the video. The live version of this song uses a really melodic saxophone line to start and end the video, but since I am not a sax player, I used my Gibson Les Pau...
Coming Back To Me by Marty Balin (cover)
Просмотров 4786 месяцев назад
"Coming Back To Me" was released in 1967 as part of the Jefferson Airplane's "Surrealistic Pillow" album. This song always seemed so other-worldly to me, not just sad but sort of ethereal. I used a very long-tail reverb from a cathedral on the guitar for this song to try to recreate a little of that other-worldly sound. I also added the sound of a recorder in the background, similar to what Gra...

    Awesome. I like this one. Recently at karaoke, I did two Gordon Lightfoot pieces, one Randy Travis piece, a Jim Croce piece, and a piece by the band cream. Pussy willows cattails by Gordon Lightfoot was played on flute, time in a bottle was played on Flute, white room was played on flute. The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot, and Wind In the Wire by Randy Travis were both sung vocally. Had a bit of a rough start with the Randy Travis piece, but I got through it. Still working with my Music. Glad to report that my mom and I are safe. We made it through the hurricane.

I listened to your original song. I can picture Tillamook Rock Light and the ocean from Glenn's vocals and the sound of the 12-string guitar. My hometown is Fuji City, Shizuoka Prefecture, a town at the foot of Mt. Fuji. There is Tagonoura Port on the coast of my hometown. There is a calm sea and a white lighthouse. It has been 35 years since I left my hometown. When I listen to this song now, I remember the calm sea and lighthouse of my hometown, Tagonoura Port. Glenn, thank you for your wonderful original song. Glenn's happiness. I wish Glenn's family eternal happiness.

In the end, a good player needs only one guitar to make good music, but it can be a challenge to find the right one. I was lucky in finding my Martin D-35 back in 1969. Still, for a quite a number of years after that I felt unworthy of that guitar. A person needs to learn how to get the best out of any guitar, and it takes time and experience. All the best to you, Don. Hope all is well for you. - Glenn

You also do a beautiful job with the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It is actually the only song by Gordon Lightfoot I know by heart. When I sing it at karaoke, everyone gets really quiet. I have a plush representation of a black footed ferret. His full name is Gordon Carroll, Meredith Lightfoot. Gordon, because of Gordon Lightfoot. Carol, because of the late puppeteer Carol Spinney known for playing Big Bird on Sesame Street, and then of course, the rest of Gordon's name. Meredith Lightfoot. That's how I came up with that. So, my little ferrets name is a tribute to two of my favorites celebrities. Gordon Lightfoot, and Carol Spinney.

    Hi Glenn. Amanda here. I love the way you do walls by Gordon Lightfoot. I also love the way you do ode to big blue, the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, and minstrel of the Dawn. I am back at work after three weeks of being out of work. On August 3 overnight, a terrible fire broke out. It was a electrical fire, and thank God it was only in the kitchen. Even so, we had to close for three weeks. After a while of being out of work, I'm glad to be back. This past weekend, on August 24 to be exact, the restaurant had to close again. It was due to a gas leak behind one of the new walls. They had to disassemble the wall, and then reassemble it. on August 29, I was glad to be back at work. August 30 and 31st, I was cut early because it was slow. The good news is, we all got paid time off. That's a good thing. How are you? I hope you are well. Still playing, and still working with Mr. Lightfoot's music. The minstrel of the Dawn is something of a unique piece. A friend of mine and I listened to the entire album if you could read my mind. We also listened to his album Donkeyote. I have almost all of his music. Did they recover the wreckage of the Edmund Fitzgerald? I know she sang in 1975, but has she really been on the bottom of Lake superior for that long? Titanic sink in 1912, but she was discovered on the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. It's pretty amazing, the sounds you use in ode to big blue. The sound of a blue whales call, and the sound of a harpoon gun. How did you come across those two sounds? I actually listened to the sound of blue whale, and they have a different sound from any other whale. It's pretty interesting stuff.

The hull was in two pieces, literally broken in two. From the Internet, "Underwater surveys. From May 20 to 28, 1976, the U.S. Navy dived on the wreck using its unmanned submersible, CURV-III, and found Edmund Fitzgerald lying in two large pieces in 530 feet (160 m) of water." Regarding my work experience, I was not in the military but I did work extensively with the US Navy as a technical rep. on testing and repairing nuclear submarines for quite a number of years. I was on call 24/7 for all those years, so I did kind of feel like I was in the military even though I was a civilian. It was a good experience. I came out of that experience with huge respect for the Navy. Be well out there, Amanda. - Glenn

      I like it when Mr. Lightfoot tells you the Great Lakes using the following lines. Lake Huron rules, superior sings, and the rooms of ice water mansion. Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams, the islands and bays are for sportsman. And farther below lake Ontario, takes in what lake Erie can send her. And the iron boats go as the Mariners all know what the gales of November remembered. I wonder what he means. I like the way Mr. Lightfoot rights, because it is literally poetry. @@glennwillow5124 wow. They did discover her wreckage on the bottom of lake superior in 1976. She was lying in two large pieces. I'm talking about the ship. I love the way they referred to ships as she or her. They thought she was very steady, but in reality, she was not. Even though you were not in the military, thank you for serving the time you did in the Navy. even if you are not in the military and you are considered a civilian but you work for the military, you are considered a veteran. Thank you for serving our country.

      You are right. They did find the Edmund Fitzgerald on the bottom of Lake superior. Her hall was literally cracked in half, and she was lying in two large pieces. This was in 1976. This was by a navy submarine submersible. Even if you are not actually serving in the military, but you are a civilian working with the military, then I think you are still considered a veteran. I'm not sure. Even so, thank you for serving our country. aren't you retired now? What else did you do for work? I'm glad to be back at work myself. Bj’s is had some pretty hard luck, but for some reason, we've managed to come out on top.
