Yeah man, "not CBG enough" is like an artificial limitation that holds artistry back. I know there are some who feel that only raw, bluesy stuff should be played on CBG's but we've seen wonderful classical pieces from Capt Nemoff, tone poems from SlowHound, rootsy folk music by many and the NO RULES addage is even more important when it comes to styles of music than what is allowed in a build. Keep the good stuff coming!

I agree with Snuffy and everyone else. This is absolutely THE place to post this. I am a fan of Delta blues, big time, but I'm more of a fan of music and art done well, and this was done better than well and is both music AND art.

Please don't stop posting these Turtlehead. I'm just getting over a huge family bereavement and though it's good to dance to the upbeat songs on here, good to go to that safe place of the delta blues, we ALL need to heal with this kind of music being available to do so.

Now I'm shutting up. Please keep posting though. Music is therapy for more than just the music maker. Love and peace Brother.

Post videos away...this video was right up my alley. Totally! I say as long as it's played on a CBG it belongs here. Not all of us are delta blues slide players. I'm a huge fan of clean-sounding, fingerpicking melodies, so your videos are always something to look forward to. Keep 'em coming...

Thank you very much everyone, I really appreciate it.

Snuffy - that's funny, I just heard that Yoko story a few weeks ago and that's why I started playing around with this song.  I thought that was pretty cool and score one for Yoko.

I've been doing this CBG thing for a while now and even though I know CBN is the most accepting and generous audience you can find anywhere, I still get anxious when I post videos and I'll censor myself from time to time if I think a certain song "isn't CBG enough".  This was one of those times.  I debated for a week before I published it and I'm glad I did.

Thanks to Shane for the Shane Speal bump, a special thanks to Bear for your comment - it touched my heart, and thanks again to all my CBG friends.

Peace and Love, Peace and Love.
