Had some fun playing with a thumb pick and finger picks playing Before You Accuse Me. Man the blues is fun to play!

I've always been fond of that tune Buddy. You nailed it and made it your own.

Great job!

BRAVO!!! Buddy.

Great old bo song. Wrote in 1957,( great year ). The vocals,out of this world just fantastic. Nice steady beat,pounding on the bass and good job on the quick change.For me I would have enjoyed hearing your fills over the 1,4,5 progression.The fills and the turn rounds both sold.So let me say BRAVO!!! Had my foot tapping the whole song. Really Really enjoyed your performance.This would have made a great collaboration tune with one of or resident bass players.Maybe even a backing drum track???Yep that's the ticket.

Thanks Buddy
all the best to you and yours

Woo hoo, Buddy the Blues man. What fun!

As usual you blow me away with both instruments … your guitar and your voice.

I have to admit, I was cringing watching your right hand with those inorganic appendages you seem to have grown :-) ... I would need a Kevlar pick guard about a foot in diameter before I attempted that for fear of mutilating my guitar top. It does sound pretty good though and I guess if you’re careful getting used to them it adds a new dynamic to playing.

Great upload Buddy, thanks for sharing …
