Here’s another wonderful tune by Tommy Emmanuel: Angelina

Love this hybrid picking. When you listen carefully you can even hear the pick hitting the strings…

Worried about letting the videos become too boring. So here you see my “nerd-glasses” that I bought for last carnival

This time had a little help by my brother. Cutting the video etc..

Blue Suede Shoes

stevy — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 20:31:17 +0000

Buck Billo and Maxi sing “Blue Suede Shoes” written by Carl Perkins with the big hit by Elvis.
While some ill-informed revisionist writers of rock history would like to dismiss Carl Perkins as a rockabilly artist who became a one-hit wonder at the dawn of rock & roll’s early years, a deeper look at his music and career reveals much more. A quick look at his songwriting portfolio shows that he composed “Daddy Sang Bass” for Johnny Cash, “I Was So Wrong” for Patsy Cline, and “Let Me Tell You About Love” for the Judds, big hits and classics all. His influence as the quintessential rockabilly artist has played a big part in the development of every generation of rockers to come down the pike since, from the Beatles’ George Harrison to the Stray Cats’ Brian Setzer to a myriad of others in the country field as well. His guitar style is the other twin peak — along with that of Elvis’ lead man Scotty Moore — of rockabilly’s instrumental center, so pervasive that modern-day players automatically gravitate toward it when called upon to deliver the style, not even realizing that they’re playing Perkins licks, sometimes note for note. As a singer, his interpretation of country ballads is every bit as fine as his better-known rockers. And within the framework of the best of his music is a strong sense of family and roots, all of which trace straight back to his humble beginnings.

He was born to sharecroppers Buck and Louise Perkins (misspelled on his birth certificate as “Perkings”) and was soon out in the fields picking cotton and living in a shack with his parents, older brother Jay, and his younger brother Clayton. Working alongside blacks in the field every day, it’s not at all surprising that when Carl was gifted with a secondhand guitar, he went to a local sharecropper for lessons, learning firsthand the boogie rhythm that he would later build a career on. By his teens, Carl was playing electric guitar and had recruited his brothers Jay on rhythm guitar and Clayton on string bass to become his first band. The Perkins Brothers Band, featuring both Carl and Jay on lead vocals, quickly established itself as the hottest band in the get-hot-or-go-home cutthroat Jackson, TN, honky tonk circuit. It was here that Carl started composing his first songs with an eye toward the future. Watching the dancefloor at all times for a reaction, Perkins kept reshaping these loosely structured songs until he had a completed composition, which would then be finally put to paper. Perkins was already sending demos to New York record companies, who kept rejecting him, sometimes explaining that this strange new hybrid of country with a black rhythm fit no current commercial trend. But once Perkins heard Elvis on the radio, he not only knew what to call it, but knew that there was a record company person who finally understood it and was also willing to gamble in promoting it. That man was Sam Phillips and the record company was Sun Records, and that’s exactly where Perkins headed in 1954 to get an audition.

It was here at his first Sun audition that the structure of the Perkins Brothers Band changed forever. Phillips didn’t show the least bit of interest in Jay’s Ernest Tubb-styled vocals but flipped over Carl’s singing and guitar playing. A scant four months later, he had issued the first Carl Perkins record, “Movie Magg”/”Turn Around,” both sides written by the artist. By his second session, he had added W.S. Holland — a friend of Clayton’s — to the band playing drums, a relatively new innovation to country music at the time. Phillips was still channeling Perkins in a strictly hillbilly vein, feeling that two artists doing the same type of music (in this case, Elvis and rockabilly) would cancel each other out. But after selling Elvis’ contract to RCA Victor in December, Perkins was encouraged to finally let his rocking soul come up for air at his next Sun session. And rock he did with a double whammy blast that proved to be his ticket to the bigs. The chance overhearing of a conversation at a dance one night between two teenagers coupled with a song idea suggestion from labelmate Johnny Cash inspired Perkins to approach Phillips with a new song he had written called “Blue Suede Shoes.” After cutting two sides that Phillips planned on releasing as a single by the Perkins Brothers Band, Perkins laid down three takes each of “Blue Suede Shoes” and another rocker, “Honey Don’t.” A month later, Phillips decides to shelve the two country sides and go with the rockers as Perkins’ next single. Three months later, “Blue Suede Shoes,” a tune that borrowed stylistically from pop, country, and R&B music, sat at the top of all charts, the first record to accomplish such a feat while becoming Sun’s first million-seller in the bargain.

Day 15 – Study Piece – Country Boy

stevy — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:02:21 +0000

Here’s a piece I learned for my study piece of week 2, ‘Country Boy’ by Albert Lee. It has mental hybrid picking, with the hardest part of the song being the main riff!
Gear:
Fender American Deluxe with V neck
Fender Hot Rod Deluxe Wine Edition
Boss DD-6 delay pedal (for last verse + chorus)

Also, massive apology for the lack of updates over the last month, I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had that much time to edit (which takes me ages for some vids!), but I’m trying to catch up now, and there should be quite a few videos coming this week.

Led Zeppelin Black Mountain Side COVER DADGAD Acoustic Zep Blackwaterside

stevy — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 05:13:15 +0000

Led Zeppelin Black Mountain Side COVER Wheew! A very difficult cover of an acoustic number by Mr Page paying tribute to an old Irish folk tune, Blackwaterside. Many have attributed Mr. Bert Jansch with this tune but it is a twist on a called Blackwaterside. The song by Mr. Page was recorded on Led Zeppelin’s first album from 1969. This is in a DADGAD style tuning but 1/2 step lower to match the album which would make it a D flat. Mr. Page calls this his “CIA” tuning…Celtic, Indian and Arabic. What he did with this song and the arrangement and production with tabla shows how ingeniuos he really is…transforming an old Irish tune into sort of an international piece by bringing the connection of Celtic and Indian music together. Remember he did this in the late 1960s when the Beatles and the Stones had featured the Sitar and classical Indian instruments on the songs “Within you, without you” and the Stones “Paint it Black” I believe.
I made several attempts to play this in its entirety and correctly. It is a variation on a theme and is not exactly the way Mr. Page arranged it. I think the hybrid picking and fingering technique is more in line with what Mr. Page did in the studio then just fingerpicking or flat picking the song.
Sorry I do not have any tabs for this song. I learned it by ear. I made an attempt to also show both hands during the taping of this so you can get an idea of how its played.

When I get it closer to 99% I will repost.

I hope you enjoy it and can learn something from it. It is very difficult to learn and play, one of the most challenging of Page’s acoustic numbers. Remember, have fun with your playing !

Dire Straits – Six Blade Knife (Acoustic cover)

stevy — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:25:23 +0000

- A cover of “Six Blade Knife” on acoustic guitar in a finger picking style. NEW : another impro on six blade knife here : http://soundclick.com/share?songid=84…
The album version have a slower tempo than my cover (I hope it will not disturb so much the “musical habits” of some Dire Straits fans!). Sorry for the poor quality video… but don’t hesitate to rate and comment the music!
- If you have time, I made an other version of this song on an electric guitar :

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ_2Wp-DVoM

- and a cover in “fingerpicking” of “I dug up a diamond”, from the “All the Roadrunning” album of Knopfler with Emmylou Harris (2006)

- a improvisation on “sultans of swing” :

- A “classic” song from the first album of Dire Straits (1978). I play here with a kind of “hybrid” finger picking, between JJ Cale and Mark Knopfler’s style, but in a more simple way than these great masters!
- In fact, a (relatively) simple, basic song : Harmonicaly, the song use few simple chords :
A- C\D A- C\D
F C F\G D
- There are only four instruments : two guitars, one bass, one drum … this is the essence of rock… but with a fluid, elegant, minimalist guitar playing by Knopfler. An excellent and fine drum playing by Pick Withers, a basic but efficient bass playing by John Illsley, and David Knopfler on rythm guitar.

- An absolutely wonderful and rare demo version of “Six blade knife”, a magnificent solo on a rapid tempo!!!

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=NIxNg9Fj7OY&feature=PlayList&p=CFF99A204408B067&index=3

- The studio original version is here :

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=JHIIivQnIsU&feature=related

- A live version in HD from 1979 (Rockpalast) is here :

- Ma reprise à la guitare acoustique d’un morceau du premier album de Dire Straits (1978). Le tempo original est un peu plus lent, et mon “style” est ici un peu hybride entre celui de Knopfler et de JJ Cale… à vous de dire si vous appréciez en évaluant et commentant!
- L’album “Dire Straits” est une “révélation guitaristique” pour le monde du rock qui découvre le fantastique et désormais incontournable jeu aux doigts (sans médiator) de Mark Knopfler, dans la lignée du guitariste country Chet Atkins. En résumé, une virtuosité et un toucher exceptionnels, un son reconnaissable entre milles, une mise place rythmique impeccable, des compositions inspirées et devenant rapidement des “classiques” du rock.
- Un très beau duo Chet Atkins / Mark Knopfler, permettant de bien entendre ce que donner un jeu aux doigts à la main droite (“finger picking” pour les anglo-saxons), ici dans un style country:
