iwent to see them on one of my jaunts back to the UK, maybe a decade ago in Magland. They were ****ing superb.....
Anyway before we started chatting about all that, I was watching this from 18 seconds in, hadn't seen this instrumental version/cover of it before. Just seeing what notes he was playing, although I slowed it down to 0.75 I felt it made it sound better...
sounds ****ing good to me, was even singing along in my head....great song, great track... if anything this vid went overboard.. i'm a creep, i'm special, so ****ing special.
Funny enough I only like him for two songs, that one and........wait for it......he does a brilliant (no string bend) version of Hotel California The reason I like his creep version is I can't sing, so I have to make up for the vocals, instrumentally, and just strumming don't cut it for me, I feel like it's a cop out. So I tend to look for more complicated stuff that fills those vocal gaps.
it was pretty ****, no wonder bands die out. although we all remember zz top, and their songs, and girls.
Was a brilliant crossover scene in Ska, two tone. Set the backdrop for social cohesion at a time where the National Front and race riots were brewing.
