This Great Land

[Johnny Robbo]

A tune dedicated to my little corner of the world, Teesside. I found some free footage & cobbled together a little montage of the area past & present.

Cakewalk SI Drums
No-name bass
HB Acoustic
Tele (electric rhythm guitar & slide parts)
HB PRS-alike (main lead)

Fanbloodytastic John, Brilliant music, and top class vid, The vid brought back memories of Liverpool in the 70s, everyone coming out of work between 5 and 6 o'clock, I worked at Plessey's who had 12000 staff, just along the road was Mecanno, and Littlewoods pools, the roads would be packed with cars and buses with everyone going home.
Well worth the wait,
Thanks for sharing.

Nice footage, you've put all well together!

Fine rock song and so well played. It's amazing how you can create something new with your lead guitar - from start to end!

Enjoyable!

Great piece and very fine playing, Johnny. Suggestions of Allman Bros in places but still full of your own style and flair.  Great piece of music.

You are an amazing guitarist mate,the runs on this are so clear and the twin guitar solos are brilliant.
Take a bow.

Wow Johnny this is a great display of your techniques. It has it all...melodic dual leads, shredding, sweeping, slide, tasty bends, that little Satriani lick @ 2:28...and you sure squeezed a lot of notes out of that guitar in 3.5 minutes.
Your production is always very good. I know those cakewalk drums every time I hear your music with their roomy, ambient sound. You stick to a formula with that drum sound.. Great video footage too.

Thanks fellas! Got to admit I'm quite pleased with this one

I certainly can't play everything I can hear, but I can usually suss out what is being done. Having said this, I have no bloody idea what's going on at 2:41. Do tell.

I really enjoyed this and not just for the music. It's very cool to see where a Songcrafter lives in vivid detail. What is the large stone gate that looks like the front of a castle. I feel I should recognize it.

Nice post.
