Description:
Little known fact: the act between The Who and Jefferson Airplaine at Woodstock, just before dawn, was yours truly: guitapick.

This is my encore. Great memories...

;)

Thanks Feter...this was a blast. I was going to put the tune up on it's own, and probably will one of these days...but this was a really fine springboard.

BTW: headphones bring out the best in this one, folks...catch some subtleties...

Sold my ticket when I was a teen...not much into big crowds and knew this one would be out of control...but, as you can see, I was able to sneak in and do a set....

Much obliged, bud...please pass the Baked Alaska...

Gotta get Protools...pitch corrector on realtime instruments would be so fine with the slide. Tough to get that glass thang straight at the 12th and above, consistently. But this works fine with a "live" setting...

'course...I could always do another take...practice, practice, practice....

Fantastic job Bob. You even hit all the notes, or should I say slid up to them. Excellent production and I love the intro, out go on it. Playing Woodstock must have been a blast man.

Thanks Bob, great work here my friend.

Like violin vibrato: if you miss the note by a bit, you can kind of move it up or down with the finger movement...

Glad you liked this, Ed...thanks

What did Ziti do THIS time? &mdash 03/21/08 - 10:40:34 AM
ROFL... loved the sneaky announcement you snuck in there, "Dagostino to the security tent..." (can't get much past dragon ears.) Nice little touches here, and of course the the music is a blast, love the slide work.

this sounds so clear... so well played. I love the sound of that National... a fitting tribute to Yasgur... and the crowd obviously enjoyed it. :)

You rock, Bob.

I absolutely... &mdash 03/21/08 - 10:59:37 AM
...LOVE my National. I bought it right before Ava was born and spent the next decade writing and playing on that and the classical for her (and me). Glad you like it, too, Jack.

[ Reply to This ]
Fantastic!!! &mdash 03/21/08 - 11:20:36 AM
I love the dobro. And your fingerpicking is lovely, as always. Darn it, I had to listen a few times to pick up Ziti's call by security. I hope they weren't too hard on him. :-)

Actually, I have a v-e-r-y good cow call. No joke. Vermont pasture. Resting cows lyin' down...took 2 calls...had 'em all up and runnin' over to me. Very funny...got a lot of respect from my VT friends that day.

Hhahahahahahaa &mdash 03/22/08 - 09:02:53 AM
...oohhh VERMONT. . . such a great state Be careful of those cows, I lived once in a small house right by a cowpasture. In the pasture was the shed where I had my firewood-U know the young cows which haven't gotten calfs yet yearlings?donno the name in english but they can be very unpredictable ! I never had a problem with'm though. Met a boyfriend that spring(this is waze back when I was 22) who wasn't used to that kind of life....it was a blast when he got the firewood....VERY FAST - he ran & the young cows after....lmao

Really great guita

i was the one selling the brown viagra....

love this piece, very much. the resonator has a very unique totally american sound....wish i had one....

and it's pronounced DAGostino, not DEEagostino...which is why i never made it to the security tent...i was with a lovely young hippie girl, i was teaching her proper pronounciation.

great work, my pal robert

This is a lovely Kottke-esque bit of resonator guitar... Nicely recorded...

The Resonator.

Nice authentic slice of laid-back, down-home Americana Pie.

I'm not quite sure the speech of the hecklers would have been quite so intelligible, though. lol

I'll look forward to hearing this work in its entirety. ;)

...this piece is the 3rd of a suite of 4...I'd really love to call it the "Clem Kadiddlehopper Suite"...all the pieces have that bucolic feel...but am concerned about copyright infringement...so I've gotta get off that train of thought and think of something else...

Thanks for coming by...so many cool tunes around and I really appreciate that you'd take out the time.

What Curry Said &mdash 03/22/08 - 06:00:09 PM
The ambience on this is so well done and so amusing in it's own right (you should have a 'no beverages' warning on this one. I almost cleaned my monitor when Fran got called to the security tent) that I'd love you to upload a studio version as well. I love that beautiful harmonic at the end. It's such a nice recording and the guitar sounds just gorgeous.

The whole package is fab. I just want it both ways.

[ Reply to This ]
Tsk, tsk, tsk... &mdash 03/22/08 - 06:52:10 PM
...want it ALL do you?

No problem...

It is a nice sound, isn't it? The last thing I was thinking of getting when I ran into it at Mandolin Brothers...the sound grabbed me...

I'll let you know when I post the studio version...that's the way I was going to post it at first 'till I got wind of the Woodstock festival...just couldn't resist this...

Thanks, Lisa...

and the National sounds terrific, I played a few of them at Aritsian Guitars near nashville and they are loads of fun and it really seems that you feel the same way, the way you play.

Hey , I heard that rooster in there too :) Nice subtle sound there during the playing ! Cool

Fun!

Way to go gp!

[ Reply to This ]
My only kick... &mdash 04/25/08 - 10:54:07 AM
...about the Radiotone is that the tone's best with medium and heavy gauge strings. Gets tough when I take off the slide. I know that wouldn't bother you very much, as you're used to the heavies...but I'm mostly a classical player...nylon strings...but the sound makes it more than worth the "extra effort"...
