By the way i need a nylon string guitar for Christmas..My fingers are sore and callassed  :'(

Nice!  Great playing!

Lovely - indeed, excellent playing. Worth those callouses. Really enjoyable listen.

You don't need another guitar, you need more playing time. Fantastic listen Eric.

Thanks for spelling callouses right for me Nigel. I am a good speller but never had to use or spell that word before ;)

Thanks Everyone!

I have a friend who lives in Calais.
Ha ha.

This is outstanding...really hits the spot. Talent all the way!

There we go...you are such a great guitarist man, deadly.  You don't post enough acoustic stuff.  Outstanding.

Why is this in Covers?

What ever tune you have covered, you have clearly Transended it and made it completely your own!


This is some of the Finest Guitar playing (if not the best) guitar playing I have ever heard!

Is this all one take Eric?
This is F*cking Crazy!


Bro....


This is Insane Talent!

If I could do this on a steel string.........
I'd be a happy man...

brilliant playing and a lovely sound too
well worth the pain --steep your fingers in a glass of ice -add vodka and a slice of lemon
you could also add it required a small mixer--continue the process until you feel nothing  ;D ;D

Thanks Tharek bro, and i appreciate all the nice comments but  this isn`t that great. I have seen and heard waaay better. I came up with this and practiced it for an hour. i then did my first recording in the crapper which didn`t turn out so good. you can hear the punch in the middle cuz my girl had to go..LOL

Anyways after i recorded  I realized when i played back that it was so bassy. It took me a while to take the low end off of this recording. I don`t think the bathroom is a good place to record my Ovation. It`s a quiet bassy acoustic guitar.  I did play this for my family last night though so it was all good.

Thanks Rob. I used my Ovation acoustic and the Mbr onboard mic for this. Yes i love this kinda playing. unfortunately my next couple posts will be a bit heavy but i will have something like this in the future.

Thanks for all your comments you talented musicians, and Merry Christmas!!!

:D That's pretty much what would happen if I tried it. In fact, she'd probably have a fit if I even suggested using that room for recording...

Anyway, lovely, lovely playing :)

Yep...


Still Amazing...

This kind of playing speaks to me dude....

The best to my ears......

kow what you mean Tharek, Eric this is great playing! First festive song I hve listened to this year and what a way to begin! You're a very talented man!

I bet there's a dude somewhere that travels around to celebrate all national/religious holidays - I might punch out an extra belt buckle hole and try that some day!

Oh this is fabulous Eric - I quite like it when you sing though!

Dude man, what a great listen. Wonderful playing, very heartfelt and tender. Callous shmallous!
Rock On!

A thing of beauty to listen too even kept the children quiet at breakfast thanks...
