  1. I remember buying this album out of a bin I picked at Canton First Monday on the suggestion of a friend.  I distinctly recall the first time I heard it and being blown away.  I accidentally put it on Side 2 first.  The slide/wah combo on "Crazy Momma" knocked me out.  

    Since then, I've probably bought it at least ten times, as I keep giving it away to friends or loaning it out and never getting it back.  It's full of great songwriting and it's kind of a weird anomaly considering it also used some of the first drum machines ever.  Yet it still has this down home front porch groove to it.  Anyhow, I put it here for those who haven't been turned on to it.  

    Great thread btw.  Always love hearing new stuff and getting reacquainted with some I haven't heard in a while.

  2. So I was pondering having a guitar dedicated to slide...which I do already, but you know, a different, maybe better one.  Plus it would give me a project to noodle around with.  Maybe find a body here, pick up there, etc.  Took me years the last time around.  I had recently seen Jason Isbell's Coodercaster and poking around looking for ideas, when there she was...

    Man, these guys have done the slide guitar all sorts of beautiful ways. 

    And just listen...

    They're quite proud of them, but from appearances, they oughta be.

  3. you make it sound like I did something sly when in fact it was simple mental retardation on my part

    It’s called a “soft touch.” I usually reserve it for my fellow guitar addicts in this thread.

    Otherwise, it would’ve been “where’s the damn pics you Surly asshole.”
  4. I am selling my Gretsch to partly fund a new Strat. The Strat I have now is an HSS and that's fine but I want one w/three single coils and apparently I am never going to finish putting all my Strat parts back together again so I'm going to have to buy one. Love that white blonde look.

    You posted a pic of the guitar you want rather than the guitar you’re “trying” to sell?

  5. I want to laugh at shit like this, but it just depresses the hell outta me.  It's not a David Allen Coe song.

    I see a woman in the night
    With a baby in her hand
    Under an old street light
    Near a garbage can
    Now she puts the kid away
    And she's gone to get a hit
    She hates her life
    And what she's done to it
    There's one more kid
    That will never go to school
    Never get to fall in love
    Never get to be cool
    Keep on rockin' in the free world

    Did you see the Daryl's House video with Kenny Loggins I posted?  They zoom in tight on him playing that riff.

    I have not, but thank you sir!  Where did you post it?

    Also, and this is something I emphasize with my daughter: practice slow to play fast.

    So much this.  

    I have a new band starting up now and they want to play "Footloose."  That G bend in the beginning sounds so simple, but trying to get the rhythm down has been really tough for me.  Even at half speed it's challenging to get it right.
