My improvised version of Classical Gas by Mason Williams. Of course I couldn't play the orchestral middle section, so I stuck a bit of Malaguena in there instead.

I recently rediscovered this track and thought I would share it. It features the amazing Joe Nunn on fiddle and me on guitar. The tune is an O'Carolan one (look him up) and the video clip is from "The Vagabond".

Santa Baby - Merry Xmas from Driftwood
Просмотров 138 месяцев назад
Do you remember Xmas 2012? Well, Driftwood appeared at an open mic night at the Wrekin Inn little knowing that the late great Tony McPhee (of Groundhogs fame) was recording the event for posterity. Here he recorded an under-rehearsed version of the Javitts and Springer classic. Merry Xmas everybody! God bless us every one.

I first posted this two years ago when Nanci died as a tribute, but I was never happy with the sound quality. So I've re-engineered it. I think this version is better.

The Pink Panther Theme Cover

Here is my version of Henry Mancini's famous theme. I think I must have been heavily influenced by the Beatles, and there's a bit of improv in there too.

    The photo's of the loading bays in Fobney Street were brilliant. My Dad, Roy Gascoigne, worked there loading up the lorries. Brought back memories of going into town with my Mum for the weekly shop. My Mum would get a burger from the van in the market and take it to Fobney street for my Dad. Great photos, thanks for sharing.

      Hi - I think I remember the name Roy Gascoigne. I used to run the staff shop next to the bottled-beer loading stage and so knew most of the employees as everyone would come to the shop to spend their allowance. I can't put a face to the name though after all these years.
