Re: CC Rider

Thanks Russell I liked it as well and that's a nice guitar. Could you tell me where I can find those chord shapes please.

Re: CC Rider

Thank you and the chords are a mix of E Adom7 and B I dont really strum the E or A I use an old blues way of playing them its  more of a moving melodie then chords as I am finger picking this arrangment perhaps someday I will do a video of my techique its self learned some of it I picked up from my time spent in southern california at Hermosa beach jamming with the Chambers bros.,Lightnin Hopkins and Sonny Terry at a few parties, to be honest I dont know anyone who plays a similar style but Im sure there are a few still alive lol

Re: CC Rider

Russell  Very nice version of the See See Rider Blues.  You sound good in your new Samson mic and some fine pickin' there too!!  Well done!

In my late teens I had a drug problem...now in my sixties all my problems have a drug.

Re: CC Rider

Thank you i appreciate your comments and I am really happy with the Samson there is quite a difference in recording compared to my Sure Sm58 there is more response on the frequencies smile

Re: CC Rider

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: CC Rider

Phill yes the mic was running thru my Sonic PA with rca outs i used a Y chord with a 1/8" stereo plug into my laptop,hope your voice is healing up and you get over that cold soon smile
