Thread: FRIDAY RELAX TIME: POST YOUR FAVORITES...

As to the guitar list

I must have missed Frank Marino? Eric Johnson? Not to mention Gary Moore, Tommy Emanuel (of course nobody ever heard of him)

Some of those guys have a lot of name recognition but not the sharpest
guitar skills , Oh, they are competent players , most are fantastic writers , But they are not the best out there

A little skill session for all of you

Please listen to this whole song

I won't post the lyrics due to restrictions here on the site , but
I think this song needs a last verse

"Marching to the border war"

Anyone want to write that last verse?

"hey looky yonder what do you see
Marching to the mexican border war
Looks like Minuteman Johnny with a lawn chair in his hand
Marching to the Border wars , marching to the border wars"

My take on it

Richie Havens is a monster talent

(Just a quick edit , I think Ritchie got it wrong , the troops that invaded
Dunkirk wouldn't have Carbines , they would have M1 Garands or Springfields"

"Hey , here comes a hydrogen bomb
Here comes a guided missal
Here comes a hydrogen bomb
I can almost here it whistle"

You can't make this stuff up , Well , maybe he did

Now to a mellow mood

Another drugged out heroin addict ,
I ask , How can drugged out heroin addicts write this stuff , how do the
live so long ? , Why do we have such crap for music nowadays? Do we need more drugged out heroin addicts doing our music ?

I saw this live when it happened and I was friggen floored
From the comments
"This is the best version of a song that has NO bad versions"

Just to prove it isn't a fluke

You won't find those cords in a mel bay lesson book


I heard someone going off on Eddie Van Halen, There is one piece of his music have never been able to master , That was before YOu tube

Believe me , these try to make it sound easy , But don't even
