AGP #420 ''Boofwood'' "Keep Your Lamp Trimmed and Burning "
Sat down back in Feb 2021 to record a Sound Sample of “Keep Your Lamp Trimmed and Burning” on AGP-#420 “Boofwood”, a Solid Body Camphor Laurel Build, through my Spark 40W Amplifier, using a Preset Setting, called “Fuzzy Jam”, I got on a bit of a roll, and managed to pump out another 3 one take Riffy Type Tunes in a row, just to let the neighbours know I was still alive and Kickin’, in what was then known as “The Covid Times”, for obvious reasons I called it “The Hat On Backward Barefoot Session”, the original Video was around 8 minutes long, so to keep things short and simple, I edited it into 4 separate Vid’s, I’m not sure if I posted some of them previously, but I’ll post all 4 of them over the next 4 days, starting with “Keep Your Lamp Trimmed and Burning”. :-)
