blindboygrunt Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 So glad she doesnt keep her head out of the video shoot That's one of those C&W's that sal got isnt it ? Sounds nice https://thebluegrasssituation.com/video/sitch-sessions-caroline-spence-mint-condition/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) The guitar sounds lovelly, but god she is awful to listen to. This current hipster trend for tiny, thin high pitch vocals is frankly .... disturbing. This lady is a whole lotta rosie, she should use her natural assets better, let those pipes blow and put some depth that voice.

uncle fester Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) I closed my eyes when she was singing and thought it was Sal. EA - I kind of like this singing, reminds me a bit of Edie Brickell, but probably only so much of it - it would have to be mixed up a bit for variety's sake for anything more than a couple songs.

MorrisrownSal Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) BBG it might be a modern CW, an old one, or even a Sheryl Crow? CLues to me say its older. The golden hue to the top... the unbleached bone saddle... not a fresh modern one. But of course this might be some sort of 2000 something Sheryl Crow where she changed out the tusq. Sweet warm sound that strum. All Bird. Edited July 9, 2019 by ThemisSal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 As fabulously warm and balanced as that Old Girl was - I couldn't appreciate it enough to even get to the halfway point due to the vocals from the Young Girl. She's no Molly Tuttle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars68 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 To me that guitar both looks and sounds great! Although I can appreciate the difficulty and skill it takes to write and perform the tune in the link above, that particular one did not speak to me. However, I found Steve Earle doing Guy Clark's LA Freeway on the same website, which was awesome! By the way, I really think it is a wonderful thing that performances like these, simple, raw and honest, can be produced and made available relatively easily to the world in these modern times. Internet tech really is wonderful in that sense. Lars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwalker201 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Very sweet sounding guitar I think. It the right hands that one would sound awesome. I have never played one or even seen one personally but would like to try one out one day Edited July 9, 2019 by kwalker201 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-minor7 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Nothing wrong with the girl - she just ain't Sheryl and the song isn't a world wide hit. For what it's worth the guitar isn't Sal's either - but it sure is a square shouldered Gibson. Same as the Bird, only with a thinner pick-guard. The few I tried sounded rougher though. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Yea EA, we've seen that film a couple of times and if it wasn't for the fact that I always speak the truth, I would claim that my Board-name was chosen after the E-minor at 2:58. One of the guiding sounds when my quest for squares began for sure. That so sad-hook btw, , , always wondered from where the echo came - is it Visions of Johanna. .
