Twilight Zone - Golden Earring

Reminded how much I love this song by the recent Lincoln commercial, I ripped the song from my copy of Golden Earring’s CUT album, created a chord chart, and began playing along with the song. Has now been added to my rock covers playlist. From thought to finish - 1 day.

These Are Dire Times

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Thanks to a songbook I received from my son Brian, I’ve been spending time attempting to become another Mark Knopfler wannabe. Here are the tunes I’ve attempted and beginning to play without watching my fingers.

Brothers In Arms
Tunnel of Love
Sultans of Swing

Someday I’ll be getting money for nothing and my chicks for free, if the wife doesn’t catch me. :)

I’m a Soul Man

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Adding to the ever-expanding repertoire of soul songs I love which my fingers are collectively beginning to memorize:

In Between - Collective Soul
Turn Around - Collective Soul
Link - Collective Soul
Under Heaven’s Skies - Collective Soul
Maybe - Collective Soul
Bleed - Collective Soul
The World I Know - Collective Soul
December - Collective Soul

and I’ve only started on their catalog. Another band I’ve seen live a few times and have always loved:

Third Time Lucky - Foghat
Paradise Alley - Foghat
No Hard Feelings - Foghat
Step Outside - Foghat
Love in Motion - Foghat
Comin’ Down With Love - Foghat

Yep.. I’m an old Fogger.
