It'll be my low-grade works laptop ! :wink: :lol: Its great stuff, for sure ! My personal 'favourite' is SRV, i just love that 'sloppy yet hard bluesy' crunch he achieves, Clapton said he was the best he'd seen.. which is a reasonable accolade to be given ! 8) Never got to see...

Yes totally !! I watched a few Utubes after the original link you posted... Do you think one or two little bits of 'doctoring' may have been used.. ?just in places they look a wee tiny bit 'jerky' .... (I'm no computer wiz, so I don't know :wink: )... But even if they have.. take nothing...

:oops: Half a eucalyptus tree.. which rapidly disintegrated before my eyes... I wish I had had the benefit of listening to a Cornucopia, Chas, Tam etc before I'd half killed myself hauling the thing into the garden / garage. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: I agree with the thinking ...

Man, I hear ya ! .... Walter Giardino do anything for you ? Would you fine fellows also have an appreciation of some of the perhaps more 'subtle' skills of some of the acoustic masters ? I'm thinking Leo Kottke, Andy McKee, John Butler, Tommy Emmanuelle, and those of that ilk ? I've...
