Bahama Mama - Original finglerstyle guitar

One of my older original tunes, I've recorded it previously however never posted to RUclips. Starts off with a semi-calypso/reggae thing, and morphs from there. Full of mistakes, as usual...however it's an original so it's good enough...;-)

Making more progress in the aft cabin. The interior carbon laminating on the rudder bearing housing is done, it's been prepped and painted. 2nd coat of paint on there and the transom. Now reconstructing the aft berth itself; the supporting frame, etc. Looking forwarding to the aft cabin taking shape, and seeing what it will be like to live in there while racing and cruising!

Amazing Grace - On 1890's Bay State parlor guitar

Watermelon - Leo Kottke - On 1890's Bay State parlor guitar.
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.7 месяцев назад
One of my all-time favorite old Leo Kottke tunes. I do play it on the 12-string as well, with slide (as per Leo's original recording). However I also really like this version I've long played on the old (1890's) Bay State 6-string without slide. Open D tuning.

One of my favorite compositions of mine to play. In open C tuning, on the 1890 Bay State. I like the slightly discordant sounds of the 4 & 5 chord variations that come up towards the end. Especially the final chord...;-) Enjoy.

      Exactly...I'll be looking for other places in the boat to show that theme. With a few coats of varnish, both the carbon and the kauri wood have a great look. And even there isn't much more carbon to show, the contrast of the varnished kauri next to the white painted surfaces still stands out.

      I love that guitar. Has a dual-piezo pickup setup I had put in the bridge, under the saddle. I can't remember who put it in for me... For this session it was running through a small ultrasound amp. and mic'd by video-recording ace Wilder Nicholson; see: www.wildernicholson.com/

  • @christopherquinn-x1z
    @christopherquinn-x1z 7 месяцев назад

    Interesting… the contrast of 12 strings is greatly reduced, yet the piece retains its distinctiveness, its drive, its power, and remains recognizable and itself. Because your rendition was both recognizable and unique, it reminds me of the first time I heard it: distinct, somehow familiar, and forever a part of me.

    • @OceanPlanet60
      @OceanPlanet60 7 месяцев назад

      Many of Leo's tunes are like that for me...even the first time I heard them they seem somehow familiar...like I'd been waiting to hear them and just didn't know it. Like you, so many of his compositions are in the back of my mind, forever. He's a true American treasure.
