    I am so sad this artists has disappeared for now, maybe family, or motherhood, or illness, maybe work, maybe blues got a hold of her for a time.. At least she she has given us these beautiful recordings and kept her channel up. Lets hope she comes back when shes ready.

    Well it’s December 26th 2020, pretty late in the evening. I’m still listening to these wonderful videos and miss your artistry.
    If you ever get to read this, Happy New Year 2021!

    Thank you! I did learn it myself, but I had to play it for a week straight, and still have to play it once in a while to make sure I don't lose it. I think the hammer on to the F comes after a G7. But it's a C before that.

    Wonderful. Thanks for doing some Frank Stokes, a man who doesn't get the respect he deserves. Feel free to do some more of his tunes. Would love to hear you sing some Luke Jordan, too.

    Fantastic. Great playing and singing.
    You look so young too. Great to see young people digging this music. I really wish I would have focused on it earlier. I'm a punk rocker turned fingerpicking blues wannabe. If I had learned the basics of this music first even my punk playing would have been better for it.

  • @thallassocracy
    @thallassocracy 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    These cross-rhythms are really impressive.
    Your mixture of rubato vocal lines with an almost Country-style regular picking gives you a new and distinct crossover Blues / Country feel (like Buddy Holly had).

  • @jh9214
    @jh9214 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Was looking at artists who do alt thumb picking for a tuition bk I'm writing and come across your vids via Skip James. Your versions are really good. You could release them, mistakes and crackles and all - a compilation of a dozen of these recordings would be welcomed by many it seams. .
