"GREYHOUND GIRL"


This is a quick Greyhound Girl. I decided to add drums and use my new GRETSCH. I love the sound of it. I used my Gibson J185 and a little bass and thats it click and paste and dont laugh at the vocals my kids were crazy, but who cares let them have fun.....

Hey,
Very good! Sometimes your voice sounded like Willie Nelson's!

I wish I could play music...
Thanks for your very interesting stories on my blog.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your kind observations on my music.
My son Kasper(26) played a modest but essential part in the Ittre tune for which he deserves all the credit. He has a classical background,
Discovering GarageBand he exclaimed 'This is what I've been waiting for!'

I was happy to hear that your Greyhound Girl is anything but a copycat version of Pete's original. Very cleverly done, and it is clear you know your way around in recording land.
Thanks!
Koos

PS I envy you for owning a Gretsch, my dream guitar.

Oh, sorry to hear about your ornaments! Tragic!

Hey Michael

That is an amazing Guitar you have there.

These objects (like your Jumbo too) actively produce good feelings, especially when played on.
Good for you!
Heroes of mine who played them, apart from Pete:
- Chet Atkins of course
- Jan Akkerman, who had the second White Falcon to be imported to Holland, in the mid-sixties before he became world famous in his group Focus.

Nice one Mike. I love this song.

Where did you get the chords from? Did you work them out or get them from a site?

I've been trying to get Imagine a Man sounding right but not quite there.I need to practice the singing!

Nicely done Mike. That Gibson sure sounds nice on this one.

I hear this is one that was left off Who's Next, wow, this was a throw away? I think it should have been put on the album. I hope Pete plays it today on the Christmas show.

Cheers mate.
