Riff of the week #1

Almost every day for over a year I have posted a new riff video to Facebook. Today I decided to start posting some of my favorites, here.
My plan is to post these once a week in between my normal weekly uploads and to include the original captions (from facebook) in the description because they speak to my state of mind when I was recording the song/riff.
Original post:
Had a rough day at work combined with some mild ongoing depression directly related to the state of the world and my place in it… But, I have a Les Paul, a telecaster, and a need to make some desert rock and roll, so everything is going to be OK.
