Great job! Long ago I had a Goya Rangemaster 12 from the 60s I also had a Rickenbacker 360/ 12 the neck way to thin . Now I play a Italia Rimini 12 plays great..
@@russwilloughby501 Your vocals are great ! Maybe, you might do the classics: Four Strong Winds and Leader of the Band ? don't know if they fit this format. Thanks ! :)
Another day, another home run by Russ. I love how you give facts about each song you record and I love the fact you reference the Wrecking Crew. The documentary about them is the best rock doc I have ever seen. Such a rich history. Keep on a rockin' Russ! You bring peace and happiness to people everyday on You Tube.
Just got back from a little fishing trip in the mountains. The first thing I did after unpacking the truck was check to see if you had put up another video . I was not disappointed. Thanks for yet another walk down memory lane. Nice job Russ ! Have a great weekend sir.
@@russwilloughby501 Getting better, it's my birthday and I'm going fishing. Doesn't get much better than that. Looking forward to hearing what you put up next ! Q. Do you ever put up songs that you have written ?
@@PatrickSeanEarl Happy Belated Birthday! Glad to hear you did something you apparently love to do. As to original music, yes, there's actually a slew of original stuff on TH-cam...if you search my name it should come up.
Excellent job! I have always been a fan of the Rickenbacker sound, and you captured it well without one, it appears. I can see how much work this was, with three guitars, a bass, lead and harmony vocals. This was a song made when musicians, not computers, made music.
Super great cover as usual. It's a sad day as David Crosby has passed away 🙏.. I would love for you to cover the song "Turn, Turn, Turn" by the Byrds one day, if possible. As always, keep up the great work that you do...
Another amazing job Russ! Vocals always outstanding. That 12 string sounds so cool. You really captured that 60s spirit and sound!! Thanks again for all of these wonderful covers!!
The Byrds and The Association are two of my favorite 60s groups!! This is fantastic, Russ. I am also a HUGE Gene Clark fan. Please check out two of his lesser known BYRDS compositions, "She Don't Care About Time" and "Here Without You" and, if you're so moved, I'd love a cover of either or both!! Thanks for this one!!
you seem to as confortable on the drum as on the guitar but your singing is what impresses me the most ! Kudos!!! Verry smooth drumming sir !! It is quite a pleasure to see you "having fun" while playing all these parts right on the dot !!!! :-)
I lucked out with the Greco. It was pretty dirty when I got it...it took about three hours to clean it up. The Strat's headstock is actually a normal Strat headstock; I think the angle to the camera is what makes it look a little off. It's actually a Guitar Fetish XGP Strat body and neck. They've restocked most of their stuff. So glad you liked the tune...many thanks!
@@russwilloughby501 It's a great feeling when an old, iffy guitar blossoms after some TLC, isn't it? I just snagged a 20 yr old Simon & Patrick cedar top dread that didn't have a scratch on it. Looks like it was bought, then put in a closet. A real barn find.
@@russwilloughby501 It's a pretty fun app. Would you mind if I posted your Love Grows video on Tiktok for you with info about your TH-cam page? Up to you of course. I just like your performance a lot, and I bet a lot of people on there would too! Just let me know, and I can share a link to it for you.
This may be controversial, however, I much prefer your rendition of Bob Dylan's classic. I always found Dylan's music hard to tap along to. Your version is brilliant, particularly the haunting 12-string introduction.
Thanks. The audio tracks are recorded individually on a Yamaha AW1600, and at the same time I use my phone to shoot the videos. Everything is then put together in Movavi.
What a vocalist !
You, sir, are a bloody genius! A one-man Wrecking Crew!
Thanks again!
“Hit after hit after hit!” Good lord Russ, swinging that musical hammer like a wildman, you done nailed another one! Perfect, man.
As always, many thanks for the colorful comments, Joe; I really appreciate it. LOL

Thank you, Robert...so glad you and your wife enjoyed it!
You're very talented...thank you for the cover of this classic.
Thank you too!
If the Byrds had only had one hit we would still remember them 50 years later.....just like this hugely talented fellow has....
Well done, you're the man ( or many men )!
LOL...thanks so much!
Another beauty.

Thanks so much! Ah, the Rangemaster....the guitar with more switches than the cockpit of a 747. An Italia Rimini? THAT is one cool guitar!
Your truly amazing. Wish you the best. Love watching your talent. Cheers 💞
Thank you so much!
OMG, I can’t believe I only now discovered you. Excellent work!
Glad you found me....I appreciate the nice comments!

Hey, I was thinking about doing this on my Ricky! Great rendition and less work for me :-)
Lol. Well, it was between this and "Turn, Turn, Turn"....but your cover of TTT is so excellent I didn't see the need for another one. Thanks so much!
Just got back from a little fishing trip in the mountains. The first thing I did after unpacking the truck was check to see if you had put up another video . I was not disappointed. Thanks for yet another walk down memory lane.

Love your guitar collection, Russ. Inspiring to an old guitar player like me.
Thanks so much, Dave. I guess you could say I'm addicted!
@@russwilloughby501 An understandable addiction, that is not self-destructive...what's not to like?!
wow that was really cool !
Thank you so much!
Another amazing job Russ! Vocals always outstanding. That 12 string sounds so cool. You really captured that 60s spirit and sound!! Thanks again for all of these wonderful covers!!
Hey Chris! As always, many thanks...glad you liked it. Yeah, I'm really digging the 12 string!
Great job
I was looking for tambourine music… And this came up. Incredibly beautiful, that is why I just subscribed to your channel thank you Russ.❤❤❤
Awesome! Thank you!
You are so talented!
Many thanks!
Brilliant Russ well done
Thanks so much; I certainly appreciate it!

Another great job Russ! I hoped this was coming when you got the new 12 string, and you nailed it again!
It's the first tune that came to mind when I got the 12 string. Thanks so much!
Thanks for all the effort, Russ! I so enjoy these vids you put up, excellent job!
So glad to hear it; many thanks!
YOU REALLY NAIL IT !! I AM A LONG TIME FAN!!
Thanks for sticking around! I appreciate it!

Impecável!!
Parabéns!!
Thanks very much!
Welcome to band of left-hat and right feet drummers! ♥
LOL....thanks!
Fantastic job Russ , the actual background music on this song was done by The Wrecking Crew featuring Hal Blaine
That Greco looks gorgeous, and I like the Strat's Tellyish headstock. Iconic song. You had to do it so that I can learn from you. :)

@@frankfarklesberry It sure is! Congrats on the S&P! I've only played one but it played and sounded great.
Have you considered putting some of your songs on TikTok? 🤔 It's so cool that you're able to play every instrument!
Never really thought about TikTok....things are tough enough keeping up with TH-cam and Facebook! Thanks so much for listening!

I'm disappointed. Took Russ at least three days to do this one! Fantastic job as usual. I wish I had half of your skills. Every note is always spot on
LOL. So glad you liked it...many thanks!
👏👏
Thanks for listening!
Wow
Thanks for listening!
Wonderful job! You sound more like McGuinn than he does!
LOL....thank you so much!
This may be controversial, however, I much prefer your rendition of Bob Dylan's classic. I always found Dylan's music hard to tap along to. Your version is brilliant, particularly the haunting 12-string introduction.
I appreciate it, thanks!
Maybe if the Byrds had backed Dylan there might be some validity to your thoughts but the Byrds version is way fuller sounding.
Hey Russ! Great job on this Classic! I was interested in knowing what kind of 12 string that was, it sounded really good
Glad you liked it! The 12 string is a 1967 Greco es-920.
I’m posting you all over my Facebook channel
Wow, thanks so much for doing that. Glad you liked it!
I only hear the Byrds?
i observed the different voicings you use for the 2 different 12-strings. but did McGuinn actually use 2 of them on the recording?
Not sure if he did or not. I usually double up the rhythm to thicken things up a bit.
Hey Cover King!!!
How do you produce these fucking fantastic cover’s?
Thanks. The audio tracks are recorded individually on a Yamaha AW1600, and at the same time I use my phone to shoot the videos. Everything is then put together in Movavi.
@@russwilloughby501Audio quality is awesome ! Salute
He don't need no stinking band, he is the band.
I played along with a strat.
Thanks for listening!
Hey Russ, excellent performance!! I have already subscribed! Have a look to my instrumental covers also.😊
