    Many thanks for doing this. I listen to Tony Joe White live version with headphones. The bass and drums are so tight it’s amazing. And Tony Joe is killing it on that strat.

  • @Card_Kitchen

    Another killer lesson JJ! Almost every video on RUclips of this song has the title wrong. It is actually Poke Sallet Annie, not Polk Salad. Poke Sallet comes from the Pokeweed plant. Almost all parts (especially the roots) are highly toxic. To properly prepare/cook the plant to be edible is tricky. You must boil it, drain and rinse, boil it again, drain and rinse again, and do it once more before it can be consumed by humans. It kind of tastes like collard greens. The pokeweed plant also has berries that if touched by hands can seep into your bloodstream and make you very ill. The reason I know this is pokeweed was all over one section of my mothers yard and I would do her yardwork for her when she was alive. After I made a trip to the hospital once extremely ill after doing her yardwork, I researched this heavily.

      @jamesjames9275  Год назад

      Well, the ES 345 has a VariTone knob, which gives out-of-phase tones. It's hard to get that honk without that knob. I guess you could compress a wah pedal halfway down and just leave it there.
