I had heard of Zydeco. My Mom loved to twirl around the living room playing her Clifton Chenier albums. We kids went with Mama Something and the Something Playboys (or something like that). Darned if I can remember the band's name, but I can remember the sound. CJ Chenier's "Too Much Fun" is one of my favorite albums.
And this is from a Pennsylvania boy. It was this stuff or Crystal Gayle. Now, there's nothing wrong with Crystal Gayle, but some good Zydeco on the radio and some twirling around the hardwood floors of our front hall with a pretty teenaged girls (when I was teen of course) was a whole lot more fun.
Aaaaaand - dumb attempt number two with bad picking and worse singing. If you're a drinking man or woman, this'd be a good time to pour yourself one before clicking on the link.
Here's Down on the Corner. About my sixth or seventh time playing this in C.

So, I set up a Soundcloud. I have no idea how this works. I just followed the arrows telling me where to click.

Did it work?
Well Uncle Joe, I tried to leave a message for you on Youtube, but for some reason even when I sign in with my personal account Google still wants to use my organization sign-in. If you got "Archery" instead of "Zurf", you'd probably wonder what the heck was going on. Anyway, I really liked what you and your bud did. That's what music is about - sharing it with others.
May your necks be straight, your pegs be tight, and your tuners never rust.
The b chord is evil. Always has been. Always will be.
As for barre chords vs cowboy chords, some tips are to raise the neck a bit, be sure that there's a space between the crook in your hand and the guitar neck, and to push your wrist forward some when going to the barre chord.
Sheesh. I don't even like to tune mine. Repositioning all the bars and buttons - holy moley. That takes some patience and some confidence. Amazing.

A bottle of whiskey slipped into the case. I am willing to allow for a substitution of whiskey for a breadmaker.
Cool. A couple of songs I have played at least once before (each).
You need to get to playing some of these new toys.
I think there's a general misperception that terrible and depressing things are somehow more "real" than lighthearted things. Or, maybe they are all like Tom Waits who has said that he likes to hear simply terrible things set to pretty music.
I'm not sure how the Avett Brothers haven't done grievous harm to one another over their apparent depression.
I do like sad songs, but you've got to have some fun ones in there too. When every song is "she left me because I suck," it gets old.
Awesome.
I'm glad she's doing so well.

Ukulele as usual for me and vocals definitely not the best on this song for me, i probably should have transposed the chords more suited to my voice. Made an oops at the end as well, said closen actually instead of chosen, tongue tied ;P

What a nice voice you have. So clear.
Peatle Jville wrote:Jim that is a clever way of adding your special creativity. I wonder if Neil ever thought about a sequel to After The Gold Rush.
Probably not. It's themed on "The Dispossessed" by Ursula K. LeGuin, which is a depressing bit of science fiction in which all of the children of the Earth are taken away when a group of aliens decided we had reached an evolutionary point that as a race we were "ready" for "the next step."
Sweet!
This is such a great idea to hear how different folks interpret the same song. It may help with all those "your Key of G chords with a capo on the second fret aren't right because so-and-so didn't use a capo on the album. He played it in A instead," comments we get in the chord charts section.

Help?
Very campfire-y. My favorite way to listen to music. Good job.
Hey. It's only been a year and a half. Give him time.
OK. So maybe it dropped off. If I recall WW55 was having some health issues. I hope he's turned the corner and just doesn't have time for us. I enjoy his whitewater paddling, campfire, fishing stories.
Cool beans. Experimenting with multiple tracks is something I have yet to frustrate myself with.
The idea for balladizing it was cool.
You rotten sons of sea cooks! Now I've pulled out a D harmonica only to be reminded that I have no idea how to play a harmonica.
Hmph.
And a 12 string.

That's not working for me. The bread machine has long been associated with your new guitars. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. 
Happy NGD!
Maybe he just needs to figure out how to make bread in his Toyota.
looks like a great way to spend an evening,.
