Californiaman Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 This is a good demonstration for slide guitar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRHC-plTxz8 Oh... I found this too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk33IOFEd1o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Here's another Joe who plays slide quite well. You might of heard of him too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-App9IEz9E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM9rpQO7JBQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis G Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Very nice both Bonamassa and Walsh videos. Thank you for the share +1. I've seen both of these guys live and they are both just amazing players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 +1. I've seen both of these guys live and they are both just amazing players. I would love to see Joe Walsh this summer. Shoot! I'd love to see both JB and JW this summer. It'd be a good double bill no matter who goes first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Interesting contrast too. Neat and precise vs. sloppy and loose. Both work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 I like the fact that they both give credit to the slide guitarists who influenced them most. Johnny WInter has always been one of my favorite slide players. And who can deny the greatness of Duane Allman when it comes to slide? This is Joe Bonamassa's version of Bad Blues by Ry Cooder. Fantastic if I do say so myself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZXDDPIxlXs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Great stuff. I love blues slide guitar. Johnny Winters and D. Allman are as good as it gets, so are both Joes! So let's go back to Booker White, the guy who inspired so many... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 And old Furry Lewis, one of the very first slide blues men recorded, clear back in the 1920s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 But the guy I think gets overlooked is Mr. Roy Rogers! http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8rZVz3O47yo&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californiaman Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 Jaxson throwing it down! That's all fine and good ol' man (just kidding), but I'm only 50. While I can appreciate the history lesson and roots-slide-guitar-blues, I love me some contemporary spin on the classics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNzBBpoNrAE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAcBCGOdDTo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lu Ruello Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 +1. I've seen both of these guys live and they are both just amazing players. Saw Joe B. live here a few years ago in Sydney. He rocked the joint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californiaman Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 You know... there are some ladies out there that can work that slide guitar too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErCfACTylvc And look who she's playing with!

That's some of the best sounding slide I've ever heard. I would think that the type of guitar he's playing has a lot to do with too. Just an old hollowbody and a P-90 pickup. Man that's some good sounding stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Lets kick it! How about some 12 string slide? http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=NW08Rc802MQ&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DNW08Rc802MQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis G Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 You know, I've been kind of "stuck in a rut" lately (sound familiar?). I've also been "toying" with slide guitar. After watching all the vid's in this thread, I think I've got some new incentive! Think I'm gonna be working on the slide stuff for a while! Thanks to all who've posted. Incentive indeed!
