the other side Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Just wondering if you take requests? Have you ever dabbled with "Ode to Billy Joe". By Bobby Gentry ? I think you've got the right guitars and that something with those swampy deltas. Just a good ole down home setting song of things that happen, back in there. I've noticed a few folks are envious of your playing of them on the homeplace here ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Well, I have had some requests, usually something like "Be quiet! And stop banging on that guitar", but that certainly is a strange request! I don't think I could remember all the words? I could play it well enough, but not sure about the singing - I could ask a friend who might sing it while I play.. Let me look it up. BluesKing777.

She probably will get the gig before me. Matter of fact, is it too late to vote for el Presidente? BluesKing777. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedzep Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I thought this might be your long lost daughter. Hilarious, but I'd like to play guitar in her league. Can't take my eyes off her... uh...fingers. Yeah, we have a problem here in Amerika. Two steps forward, one back. It's just a re-boot, but I fear it's getting late in the game. What guitar should I buy next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What guitar should I buy next? Probably more like long lost great grandaughter but anyway....we will cling to her if the boat capsizes! Which guitar to buy, hmmm.....I would say, for you, a USED 2015/6 Gibson J45 Vintage with torrefied top. BluesKing777. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What guitar should I buy next? JedZep, If you could hold off on injecting political commentary in-between your thoughts on the talents of the young girl and which guitar you should buy next. I'm sure it would keep others from feeling the need to up the ante and make their own political comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedzep Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I refuse to listen, BK. What's next, 'Polk Salad Annie' or 'Harper Valley PTA'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldCowboy Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I refuse to listen, BK. What's next, 'Polk Salad Annie' or 'Harper Valley PTA'? "Poke Salat" - gotta say it like you've eaten the stuff, and it really ain't bad! I like that tune; Tony Joe's not any Townes Van Zandt, but he really ain't bad either😋 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
