'My Weakness is too strong'

Post by Mathew Jut »

Hello everybody!

Hereby my humble tribute to 'Papa' John Hughey, this song is called: 'My Weakness is too strong'.
He is the biggest influence for me on pedal steel guitar and I learned a lot just to watch his playing.

Best regards,

OK, I guess I am done playing this song on shows. You just ate my cake. hehe

Seriously, Great picking.

Does my heart good to see a youngster playing REAL music.

Really good job.
I can tell by your videos that you 'feel' the music as well as just play the notes.
Very important.....stay with it.
