    Mr Lindsey’s talent on stringed instruments is far beyond that of 99% of all other musicians!! First time I saw him, he was with Crosby-Nash about 1976. He was playing electric violin (Simply Incredible), slide guitar and acoustic and electric guitars. I was Hooked!! Mr Dave Is Beyond Compare!!!!!

    We just saw him at the first stop of his Summer 2017 tour. He had 3 of those hollow-necked Hawaiian guitars in different tunings and he played a number of songs like the first one he played here. I saw him back in the mid-60's when he had his group The Kaleidoscope, and he was wonderful then. A player's player : See him if you get the chance.

    The man who stole the water will swim forevermore/ but he'll never reach the land on that golden shore/ that faint white light, will haunt his heart/ til he's only a memory lost in the dark....
    Dig a hole in the ground, all the way down to hell/ til there ain't no more water in the Well Well Well/ when you're down on your knees, you got nothin left to sell/ dig a little deeper in the well well well....
    The water used to run so clear and so fresh/ now poison creeps in it that withers the flesh/ the man sells us back our water like we're fish on a line/ gonna turn our blood into his wine.....
    Dig a hole in the ground...chorus
    You care for your money, like you care for your soul, take care you don't dig yourself into a hole/ til you pay the price that you don't know the worth/ of the air and water, none finer on Earth...
    Dig a hole in the ground.....chorus

      ​@@hobgoblin4199 , "Well Well Well" was written by Bob Dylan and Danny O'Keefe. Lindley recorded a different version on one of his "official bootleg" CD's where he played it on the Turkish Saz, with a violin bow. It sounds, in Dave's words, "like a McCullough chain saw, or a Kawasaki at 180 mph".

      @goodun2974 Год назад +6

      ​​@@JayMon39 , Lindley passed away on 3/3/23 from long Covid that lead to pneumonia and kidney failure. You asked about his hybrid Bouzouki ---- he also had an electric bouzouki made from the body of a Vox Bill Wyman teardrop bass with a bouzouki neck grafted onto it, and earthquake sensors for pickups. It sounded thunderous!
      PS, His long illness and inability to play gigs led to a huge stack of medical bills over the last couple of years, and Lindley's friend music promoter Douglas Reynolds had set up a donation drive and T-shirt sale to benefit Dave's wife Joanie, through the Custom Ink website. I bought a couple of T shirts and left a donation in Dave's memory, but the donation drive has since closed. It both saddens and angers me that a musician of his caliber should need a benefit drive for he and his family in order to defray medical and funeral costs.

      The first is a Weissenborn guitar which is of Polynesian origin. The classic Hawaiian lap slide guitar and made of Koa wood as per the reason for their rich warm tone. It was adapted by Blues players from the south who had toured the islands in the 1930s. The second is a Irish bouzouki (8 strings, 6 strings would make it a Greek bouzouki)

      @@JoeTheGrunt The difference is not in the number of strings. The Irish Bouzouki has a flat back like a guitar, the Greek Bouzouki's body is shaped like a bowl composed of numerous strips of wood. Modern Greek Bouzoukis have 8 strings also, 6 strings is the traditional style like the ones used in 1930s Rembetiko.
