This is an extended version of the "Blues licks in A clip". It uses a mix of simple chord animations and video footage in an attempt to show how simple inner chording can be used as a step to blues improvisation.

This lovely old tune was written by Harry Dacre in 1892 and was probably the first (and only) song to be written about a tandem! My version was inspired by that of guitarist John Fahey, who gives a beautifully exact performance of it. Needless to say, I stick in a bit of my own off-the-cuff rubbish in the middle...

A home-made riff in Southern Rock style - starts with the theme, follows with a quiet bit, and then takes off with a nod to the Allman Brothers...Played on my '87 G&L ASAT - early to middle ASATs were the last guitars to be made under the eagle eye of Leo Fender.
