Another great cover, Doc! JP is a good storyteller. I *really* enjoyed your version here. I'm working a boat load of hours at my job and trying to squeeze in time to post that JP song I was telling you about, Angel From Montgomery.
I really enjoy your videos Doc. Great singing and picking. By the way, I recorded a few videos today with my sister Donna singing at our house in Montauk New York. I plan on uploading them when I get home to New Jersey in a few days. Thanks 👍
You made me chuckle John. Those are four crocheted stretches of paracord left over from my bushcraft days. They’ll render about 30’ of cordage. I also always carry a knife (SAK Hiker) and a way to start a fire (ferro rod). Thanks, Doc
@@docpatterson7768 I can see you using the knife as a slide, but I won't comment on the ferro rod, mostly because I never heard of that before. I can start a fire with my guitar pick.
@@johnwattdotca Hey John, my Grandpap played slide guitar. I’ve watched him many a time when he would pull out his Case brand pocketknife and use it for a slide in a pinch. Doc
@@docpatterson7768 Good evening Doc! I've got a late 1960s Pink Floyd slide trick for you, if you will. It depends on the slide, metal or glass, and the strings. Take a slide above the fifth fret, A, and move it back and forth sideways as fast as you can until you get a feel for it, and then the harmonics come out, very loud. You can move up easily to get... uh... uh... expressive? artistic? psychedelic?, but it fades when you go lower. I thought it was a synth on the record until I was shown this. I use tools my parents and grandparents had, nothing musical, unless you can play a saw. Did I say slide at A minor? Ghost Riders in the Sky, with a ghostly steel guitar slide sound.
Did i encourage you to write this song with my comment a while back? and i hope Jesse really did write a song about your lyrics I'll let you know when my song for you is done❤
Hey Daniel, you may have sent this comment to the wrong person. I didn’t write this song and I don’t know a Jesse. But I will look forward to the song you’re writing for me! Doc
@@docpatterson7768 sorry your song came up on my saved playlist as i was writing that comment but im enjoying these new song concepts I've been in a rut I'll get back when i finish your song my friend

That’s a great tune; I’m looking forward to your video. And thanks for the kind words. Doc

Thanks so much William. I’ll check out those tunes when you get them posted. Doc
That tension wrist-band, is that the result of tremolo arm tendonitis?

Great protest song. How about your guitar pickin won't get you into heaven anymore!
Nope, guitar pickin won’t do it either. By grace, brother, by grace alone. I appreciate the compliment on the tune. Doc
