  • Sometimes, I spend so much time working on new courses and the behind-the-scenes stuff at Texas Blues Alley that I forget to take time just to play guitar for no other reason than my own enjoyment. It's important to remember who you are and not lose yourself in your work.

    What song is this!? Please someone tell me I woke up with the chords playing in my head!

    • @Texasbluesalley
      @Texasbluesalley  9 месяцев назад +4

      This is a pretty blatant ripoff of "While We Cry" by Kenny Wayne Shepherd, but with a I-V-vi-IV progression instead of the I-V-IV-I progression used in that song. "While We Cry" was kind of a ripoff of "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam, which is influenced by Hendrix.

    man that was cool. early follower and student (CD's mailed to house) until 2011 when dad went Home, and mom came down with lymphoma/dementia. had to put guitar down to keep mom fed, clean and spend as much time focused on her as possible. mom went Home in 2017 and even though i picked guitar up on occasion, have lost so much of what i once knew (the blues shuffle) that i cannot get the spark back. have guitars and amps everywhere and will prolly never use again. makes me sad but i guess thats life. was great hearing those beautiful blues notes though...

    Crazy that you know all the licks but choose to still play and sound like your self. Kind of a rarity now days. Most people are so fixated on playing things exact the they never learn guitar but just the songs. Well played sir.....

    Great playing as usual Anthony...used to watch your videos all the time however for some reason they stopped popping up in my feed (I blame the algorithm - I've subscribed now to prevent that!). Today I thought of Zexcoils and it you popped into my head. Glad you're still teaching and looks like you fully endorse those Zexcoils since you're still rockin them. Unfortunately they are increasingly hard to get and seemed to have ruled themselves out of international markets as their shipping quotes are very high - almost $300 to ship to my country!
    Not sure how affiliated you are with that company but it would be cool to do a re-review...your thoughts on the zexcoil after all these years, why you still use them, why you sometimes choose not to, whether you've had trouble sourcing them etc.
    Wish you all the best.

      That is actually my Dual Showman Reverb through the EV 15" in my Vibroverb. Ever since I got the Fryette Power Station, I've been playing my amps down here on the stage a lot. In my main shooting area in the upstairs part, I still use the Kemper almost always because it's so convenient.
