I think that performance of "Peace Pipe" was just amazing! Close your eyes....and you really could be listening to the record. Great playing.

Bests....Rob



Thanks Rob - I appreciate your kind words. I think this video is by far my best effort to date. Having set the bar pretty high, hopefully, I can follow it up with another good one.

All the best!

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your kind words. I'm glad you liked the BT. Some of my mates cobbled it together one evening while we were drinking a few beers. Sounds almost like the real thing. ;)

Well, actually, as you probably figured out, it is Bruce, Jet & Tony. By a miracle of modern science and a little voodoo, Hank was successfully expunged.

Cheers,

James

'Arpeggio' - if you read the credits at the end of the clip you'll see that the backing track says it is from "TVS Specialty Products", although James implies it actually IS the original backing with Hank expunged! So James - tell us how it was achieved and who is "TVS Specialty Products" !

Thanks for the link - call me stupid but I can't find any backing tracks for sale there! They mention that Gary Taylor does the UB Hank backing tracks so I'll have to 'track' them down! ;) What I still want to know is what was used as backing for this lovely Peace Pipe cover?
As for the TVS 3 - I think I'll buy two like Hank's rig! At only £2,585 each (today's rates) they are a steal!! :o
