  1. Guns N' Roses' You Could Be Mine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1zMb-lhyak
  2. I'm liking what I've got, I've learned this song... -Where as before, if you probably saw a recording of me playing this song before, like these past couple of days, that was me either reading and reciting like Autocue and probably that video I posted that got like 50 views, where, that was an initial take, and, one of the first with the lyrics in front of me and probably the first time ever really thinking about the lyrics, so, it was a video of me not knowing the song, so my delivery was as good as my tempo, which, again, this was me recording an initial run through of this song, and liking what I got (this week) - so, this is what I'm finding myself playing tonight after practice thus far and having learned the lyrics, so, no Autocue (which is kinda how I like it). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41dDxRK81mo
  3. I haven't really learned this song, this is something I quickly sort of half learned and this is me more or less reciting it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdQIJhHA1w8
  4. I've been learning Nirvana as of late, and this is no exception. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkAhsILqMxI

  7. OMG, same... I picked up my acoustic and did a set. I sang into my microphone but didn't wake the neighbors with my P.A turned on, but I remember I really liked it and my set was; On my 1951 American parlor guitar (my Stella H929); In Eb/D#; Civil War (Guns N' Roses cover) Purple Haze (The Jimi Hendrix Experience cover) Help! (The Beatles cover) and, then I sort of faded out and went off, when I sort of forgot the lyrics to Sympathy For The Devil (Rolling Stones cover) I was tempting to go into a Michael Jackson song next (Earth Song) but... I ended it during Sympathy For The Devil this morning, but, no, yeah - that was fun. Didn't record it, but, I don't record everything I do.
  8. Man of Constant Sorrow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y0a2QLuMAk I'm more proud of choosing then finding then importing this guitar myself. To get one of these, I decided I wanted this guitar type (parlor guitar) which meant very quickly throwing myself into studying these, and by study, I mean; listening to all sorts of YouTube & Instagram videos of different makes to pin point the tone I was seeking. Then, after a little while, I found the brand and era I wanted.... Then finding one to buy was half the battle. I finally settled on this one selling in a NYC guitar store based on the Lower East Side, and had this shipped to me in London. This was the first time I'd ever imported anything into my country directly (apart from a souvenir or two from overseas travel), this was the first time I had actually imported anything in my life, and with that, came the import duty I had to pay. Since I paid that import duty, my guitar has been ready for the EU/European market, and has been ever since late January / early February 2018. It's not a Gibson but it's a cool sounding guitar nonetheless, built in Chicago, my 1951 Stella H929 I bought three guitars that week. Two Stella acoustics (both imported, both from America). And technically my first purchase that week for the three guitars I bought; a rare 1950's Parlour guitar from Sicily that I adore I found by fluke in my town's local guitar shop in Croydon in South London... - I think I pulled the trigger on this H929 that night or the night/day after... This Stella H929 is my 'Go To' acoustic guitar today. It sort of lives (unofficially) next to my two Gibsons (my avatar pic), leaning on a speaker; and I do pick it up play from time to time - and that's why it's not with the others, in the multi guitar wrack I have... I like it where it is because it's easy to get to/at reach -- I mean, the rest aren't terribly hard to get to, but it's just there next to my Gibsons. - I ran around town with that rare Italian parlour guitar though. I had it for an evening and a night then went to bed with a plan for it... I took it to my guitar guy/Feline Guitars who're also in town, and booked it in there to be fixed (minor repair/hairline crack + TLC) as I ordered the one I was on getting (then went on to get/the one in that video). This video was recorded the day I got my very first capo, which I got for it/this H929. Like a week after it arrived and I was juggling 2/3 guitars waiting on the third guitar to arrive/already buying the things I needed/wanted for it, like this way cool guitar strap I jumped on at the same local Croydon shop that sold me my Italian Parlour from the early 1950's. It's even the same age as my Stella H929, so both of my parlor/parlour guitars are cool in that they're identical in type and age, but different, and both way cool guitars.
