I'm begining to think I missed a line in the videosifts terms of agreement that says "must be able to play an instrument".

Good for you Ching! You do need better recording equipment though....but I'm just being a dick....good for you for doing something you love.

I was all shitfaced-hammered-that's 2 count-em 2, empty bottles of Bulliet Bourbon on the floor next to me (no excuse for prowess or the lack thereof on the instrument) and I was using the internal features of a Fuji finepix S1000 cheapo digicam for the recording...ambient light, wasn't shooting for perfection-My only goal was to make it through the verses with my voice as damaged as it is....Open tuned to D, this tune was originally recorded by James Arnold, who had a singular left-handed slide style yet unmatched after over 80 years, I can't even begin to approach his level of panachy on the axe-Thanks for the props

HAH! The Deano Seal Of Disproportionate Approval!!

Which begs the question (grovels for approval)....What constitutes skillful? Already answered according to deano's criteria, that being and in fact, a singular discretion and a bar higher than the bravest pioneer Cameron, ever deemed possibly raised!!

[turns around] "Deano doesn't do what Deano does for Deano." [turns around and walks a few feet, then turns around again] "Deano does what Deano does because Deano is... Deano." [the crew applauds him as he enters the bridge]

I love critiques of my art and I love you too, Deano! Seriously, I could have sucked way-better!

Here's the original recording, tried to remain true to the heart and soul of James Arnold who is in my less than humble estimation, the greatest slide guitarist and most-likely, the best bootlegger breathing in the last 90 years.
