A fun childrens tune from 2008, it really ought to be a hot fiddle tune but i don't have a hot fiddle.
Old fox coming down the road now Bunny Bunny
Run Run Bunny Bunny Go
White tails bobbing in the air there funny bunny
Go Go Bunny Bunny Run…
I should have said something before now - but can I just say that I love this tune, as does my boy who laughs everytime I play it and then sings it for the rest of the day. Good times.
Having fun (finally) playing around with the riff for this tune by Howling Wolf, which is based on a song by Charley Patton and another by the Mississippi Sheiks and another by Tommy Johnson and so on ...

This is my 2007 Pirate Day song, written and recorded September 19th 2007. I like the innuendo, but maybe it's too subtle - nobody else seems to notice ;~)
It's a great song, Alex. And gets better with repeated listenings. It's in there with some other songs i am particularly listening to on my iPod and (rather than the usual - "damn i'm supposed to be doing something for this") I am blown away by how straightforwardly great it is. You might think there's a 'cheese' factor but it's well written, direct and clear. Bravo.
I walk 13 miles of barbwire just to sing my song

I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.

You hold that appeal

This is a guitar piece in classical style in 17 notes per octave using the 17 version of the phyrgian mode. In normal 12 equal tuning phyrgian mode starts on…
Lovely!
So your guitar has 17 frets to the octave or you retune so the octave is at the 17th fret instead of the 12th? does it tune up in a similar way? which fret gives you the note for the next string?

it needs a fiddle but it has a mandolin, a chicken banjo and some excellent backing vocalists

Aaaarrrr!! Yer hearts in the right place .... but no ....
this is like someone dangerous stroking the back of your neck with a knife (but can i get a version without the static noise at 4 minutes?)

Now that's rockin! Good reworking.

Wow - amazing sounds - it's like being in a Tibetan Temple!

Lovely! So your guitar has 17 frets to the octave or you retune so the octave is at the 17th fret instead of the 12th? does it tune up in a similar way? which fret gives you the note for the next string?
