Here's a link to a tune I uploaded I don't know, 12 years ago perhaps, of a Marshall Tucker tune I've always loved. A song off the beaten MTB path, if you will. Recorded on a cheap Android phone in a dingy apartment in South Congaree, South Carolina when I was dirt poor, paying child support through my nose, eating a lot of potted meat sandwiches and drinking my landlord's free liquor. Performed on a very cheap Epiphone AJ-45 ('64 reissue? Can't recall). I saw it hanging on the wall at Sims Music and snatched it up because of the color and pickguard design. It didn't sound all that bad really for an all laminate box but it did make an appearance when plugged in and mixed through a Roland Street Cube as you will hear. Toss on an old cowboy hat and dark sunglasses for effect as well. This season of my life I was performing a few gigs at a bar in Northeast Columbia, SC on a Thursday evening for $75. It was usually slow or no one there but it was great practice, right? One evening a bunch of motorcycle riders were having a meeting there and heard me play. The president of the club liked what he heard and asked me to play for their clubhouse meetings in Clarendon County, about an hour and a half drive away. I obliged several times and they liked it and I loved it. I posted the following tune at some point and the motorcycle club president told me that this was his new "theme song". I felt honored! Here's to The Carolina Rebels MC, CCC (Clarendon County Chapter (333).
I am a HUGE MTB fan - I've tried to tackle this song a couple times - failed miserably! You do a fantastic job on this!
My favorite MTB is, "The Last of the Singing Cowboys" - has the same feel with the Maj7 chords.
after that, "Searching For a Rainbow", "Fire On the Mountain" and "Heard it In a Love Song"... EVENTUALLY, I'll get "Ol Cowboy" down - but for now - you own it!
Thanks for sharing
