jt Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Yesterday, a friend from the UK, Ian Bartholomew, of the great band Peg Powler, stopped in for a visit. Ian had written a lovely song about Banner Gibsons, entitled "The Old Banner." Here's an impromptu performance, with us both playing Banner SJs. Ian's playing my minty 1943 and I'm playing my battered, went-to-WWII 1943. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwdAUaUfXfU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[thumbup] Yes, a stunningly beautiful song. As for my minty SJ, you must play it, sir. Let's would out whether you visit me or I visit you with the guitar. Really.

Salfromchatham Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 JT with the tasty fills! Loved this. Your buddy sounds a little like Dave Matthews. Except your buddy has more grit in the voice. I really enjoyed this. You have some real amazing pieces of history as well... Goes without saying!
