Here's my number one showcase song - Delta Slide Guitar

For those of you who know me, maybe you've heard of it.

For those of you who don't know me - please have a listen!

A lot of people like this song - I guess it crosses a lot of musical "lines" if you will. From older folks, to young kids, to metal rockers, to Bluegrass players and even your Mom.

I played this on my Fender F-210 steel string acoustic - with a Chrome slide worn on my pinky finger. Recorded on a "one take" with a mic hooked into my PC.

The song reminds me of 2 old guys fighting it out in a wheel chair chase :)

:rock:

Again?

Yeah, I've played this a few times now and Love it. I can imagine Jimmy Page doing this years ago with an amazed Plant clapping along. Your playing is wonderful, thanks for posting it as it is exceptional in my ears. Big 5 from me and a nom:woot:

Thanks Dallas - I wasn't sure if you ever heard this song. .

Cant go wrong with this:yourock:

Your one excellent slide player without a doubt m8, this a is quality song which is performed to a very high standard, i will have to try out some acoustic slide, only play electric slide atm, anyway 5 stars:rock: :rock:

That was great man! Sounds like down home blues man!!

You know I'm well familiar with the tune, and like it alot.
But I just thought I'd ask... What gauge strings are you using on this one?

Sounds great PJ! Always loved the slide and love to hear it played agressively like you did. Cheers

I was using Light gauge acoustic strings.

And thanks for listening everyone!

Thanks! I try!

A cracking track mate, have always liked it ever since i first heard it over on 101.
Its awesome from beginning to end, and a joy to hear again, 5 stars :thumb:

Well I thought I'd post it again since Naif seems to be getting all the accolades lately - someone even called him a genius. Thats all fine - but I've been playing the Blues longer than him! And I've BEEN to Mississippi.

Plus - I don't have the time to post music everyday like so many on this board - since I drive a truck and work my ass off driving 70 hours a week - and over 5000 miles a week.

But that is going to change soon - as I am going to quit my job in less than a year.

I got back last night from the road - grabbed my acoustic and jammed my ass off - my fingers still hurt. I really should record those jams - but I need a new soundcard - I can't record right now anyway because XP doesn't like my soundcard.

I get frustrated with this site and others - because I feel I never get the recognition I think I deserve. Maybe it's because some people can't separate the man from the music. Typical human behavior.

That song Delta Slide has won me thousands of dollars in talent show winnings - yet here I couldn't win an MP3 of the month with it. That really says something about SOME people around here. And thats what frustrates me.

But thats cool - keep ignoring me! It only makes me more determined to blow your minds.

Could be down to ur modesty that people may not like to give ya credit?:toothless:

Seen as i only know 1 other tune u've done and i let ya know i thought it was great which it was/is i've nothin to do with that so gettin back to this.Though it was cool man i've always wanted to get into a bit of slide but have never bothered my ass! Maybe some day eh! Good stuff man:thumb:

well i digged your tune it sounded great to me and your pretty good at this style :thumb: though you shouldnt realy be botherd wherether you win mp3 of the month or not, its all about having fun and sharing your music, its not a compertition of who is better:p there are many players here of all diffrent levels some not as good as yourself and some better just enjoy it for what it is:thumb:

Yes! saved this one immediatly after listening. Outstanding piece here PJ!!!! I loved every little bit of it. This is gonna be one of my driving through to the Lake tunes this year. 5***** :thumb: :thumb:

OK tune, decent playing, but not awe inspiring as you suggest it should be.

Thousands of bux huh? V bux?

Now this one is really my sort of thing, great, dynamic slide playing. ll I can do is make weird atonal scratchy noises, something else to add to the must learn list!
