Fingerpickin guitar The real thing folks.. instrumentals, Country, Southern Rock, Blues, ..... whatever.
We're mostly comprised of musicians that have paid our dues playing clubs and bars. I had quit for 25 years before finally getting any interest in picking again. Now we do not play as a group anymore, but we all have DAW's, and we send CD's back and forth to each other. When someone wants me to pick on their CD, they just mail the .bun file to me, I open it, record my part, and send it back. Since I have picked up a guitar again I have met quite a few musicians from the area that I had not met before. And I have jammed with some of them, and recorded with others. Most probably I will also do some projects with people I have met at SoundClick. As long as I like the song and feel I can ad something positive to it, I'll do it. I just get to use what I play on in my CD's as well. I work cheap, don't I? On the other hand, no one could pay me enough to pick on a song I didn't like.

Story behind the song
This started out from a finger exercise to keep my arthritis at bay. Pretty soon it became an organized practice. Then I could hear lyrics, so I added them. The style is my basic finger pickin style. This one straight through take on guitar. To spread it out I cloned the track and added echo to sections and reverb to other sections of the clone and blended them into the mix. That makes it sound like more than one take. I added bass and highlights to the drum track.
