A New Youtube Tune

Post by Henry Matthews »

Here's another Youtube tune I did. I'm playing a Rains D-10 thru the LTD 400 on my right. Just wish there was a better way to do the sound. My camera doesn't have a line in so just use the cam mike.

Henry,
I can't hear much wrong with that cam mic. Matter of fact I think it sounds very good! No distortion, good string separation. That is as good as it gets without pro equipment.
I am listening to your tune as we speak and it is mighty pleasing to my ears.
I subscribed to you, so now you have a 'duty' to keep cranikn' them out!

Them Rains' sure sound unique

Fine playing Henry.

I used to sing that song when I was playing bass guitar back in the late 70's so it's kinda special to me.

I also got to meet Mel while I was playing at a club in Fort Worth when he and his band walked in and played a set on our equipment.

Paul Franklin was with him then but we didn't have a steel in our band that night.

Let's hear some more from you.
