A bit of a departure from my blue and rock efforts
as my infatuation with the wah-wah pedal drives
me to explore new contexts for it use.
A throwback to my classical new age
pretensions as

The Underdogs Blues Band
The Underdogs Blues Band
One of my favorite 60's band.
I don't think they ever got a name outside of
New Zealand but they were a progressive blues band
with a lot of John Mayall influences
including a cover of the Peter Green/ Ansley Dunbar instrumental
"Rubber Duck"which can be heard at:
Another Mayall cover, "Sittin' in the Rain"
with a 1967 video. The original singles were pretty much unavailable in NZ,
so covers versions served a practical purpose. Plus Mayall never toured in NZ.
A bio is at:
A little rough in place on record they were a hot live band
that were a musical treat at the teenage dances in the Wellington area
in the mid-sixties.
"Underdogs Blues Band - And Beyond (1967)"

Sweet Home Kokomo
Recycled rhythm track, and an attempt at an improvised
lead...sweet home chi... I mean Kokomo... its the same track I
used for Bury Me on Highway 61...very much a work in progress as
I attempt to develop a vocal and lead guitar interplay...Buddy Guy
I ain't but something is emerging in the way of my own distinctive
style...off the wall as it is. Just think of me as the Banksy of youtube
video graffiti.....

A dylaneque rocker with screaming guitars
and my first attempt at slide guitar (standard tuning)
on record. More reflections on mortality.
