Re: Your favorite songs to play
In no specific order of preference, and off the top of my head:
1. Mr. Tambourine Man (all the verses; Dylan/Byrds)
2. Chimes of Freedom (Dylan/Byrds)
3. My Back Pages (Dylan/Byrds)
4. Lyin' Eyes (the Eagles)
5. Nowhere Man (Lennon/McCartney)
6. The Girl I Left In Sunny Tennessee (Charlie Poole, it works very nicely with McGuinn's hybrid picking)
7. Mr. Spaceman (McGuinn; but not played in his style, finger picked a la Merle Travis)
8. Amelia Earhart's Last Flight (McEnerny)
9. If I Needed Some One (Harrison)
That's enough for now.

Lately i've been on a Reverend Horton Heat/Setzer kick, so i've been trying to work out a lot of that stuff on guitar. I really don't sit back and play bass recreationally, but If I did, it'd be Pepper-era McCartney stuff.

You need a Gretsch!
I saw the Fab Faux on TV doing Penny Lane and it was #$%^&ing amazing. Will Lee on a 4001 MG didn't hurt either.

Re: Your favorite songs to play
Any time I pick up my 6120 I have to play a few Setzer licks. Usually it's "Baby Blue Eyes" or something off one of the first two imports.sloop_john_b wrote:jimk wrote:Oh well...yeah. There are those, too.![]()

Ditto what you said in your previous post; I'm usually playing my own stuff, since we have rehearsals, gigs, and lately, recording...

It's a difficult decision, isn't it?!sloop_john_b wrote:This week; trying to decide which one to get.jdogric12aolcom wrote:You need a Gretsch!
The next two on my list are the `55 era White Falcon with De Armond pickups and a Bigsby whammy, and a Chet Atkins Roundup Western Solidbody, again with De Armonds, to go with my Western 6120

Re: Your favorite songs to play
I used to have a 6120 w/ Dynasonics and the fill-tilt western motif (edit: this one). I liked the guitar quite a bit, but I like Filtertrons more.paologregorio wrote:It's a difficult decision, isn't it?!![]()

I'm mainly torn between a Country Gent and a White Falcon right now.

MMMMMmmmmnnn White falcons i love, stunning geetars
Re: Your favorite songs to play
Depends on my mood. But most of them are in Russian, so the titles won't tell you much, if anything. My own, too. Since i wrote them myself, there's no complicated stuff about them, such as solos and all.
Nothing will get you dead quicker than being deadly serious about yourself.
