soyperson Posted October 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 My current two obsessions on my 1965 Giannini parlour guitar are "Eponine" by Penny and Sparrow and "Blues Run The Game" by Jackson C Frank. This is the guitar. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have to recommend that a guitarist learn one song, it's going to be "Wave" by Antonio Carlos Jobim. It's an incredibly flexible Latin piece, which can be played in any number of different Latin styles and a decent variety of keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattig89ch Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Don't have my headphones on me, so you'll have to tell me if this isn't the right song. But the video is from the right scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally, it was bought at a Wal-Mart when I was about five. It sat in my closet until the guitar-and-other-string-instrument bug bit me. Do you play often?

I play almost every day; it calms me down and helps me relax. I've even made up two songs . . . But they're both super short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, hey, Bob Dylan writes short songs and he won a Nobel Prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistrunner Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Goodness gracious, you're my brother. He owns something like twelve guitars. He's an amazing musician, but he needs to stop. The man has children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
