Peaches En Regalia (Frank Zappa) - 4 string guitar cover

My attempt at one of the greatest instrumental tracks of all time. 4 string guitar tuned GDGB, Bugera V5. Yes... I skipped the hard bits.

Cheers Keith, Jim, Slowhound and eK! I did try to teach this  to myself years ago on a 6 string, and it kicked my ass back then too...

First Sylvia and now Zappa? Wow!

Anybody with the kahunas to take on "P&R" on any instrument is ok in my book. Nicely done!

Comment by SlowHound on April 3, 2014 at 1:08pm

Now that's different. Nice!

Comment by Jim Morris on April 3, 2014 at 12:01pm

Nicely done Richey! Yes, one of the great guitar instrumentals. Right up there with Link Wray's "Rumble" which is maybe easier to play.

That is some good playing.

Smart

Thanks Wes, Jabes and Andries. You're right about the mix being off. I think my camcorder normalises the volume or something, as the backing music was actually playing quite a bit louder than the amp... I might attempt this one again when I have some more skill :)
