Because, with all of the crap these Marxist bastards foist on us every second of every day, sometimes we need reminding that man is an heroic being capable of creating great and beautiful things.

Yes, this is the amazing Cacho Tirao again.

  Excellent link.
  When I take time to practice, I can actually play a very simplified version of this.

    Wow! My Les Paul won't do that ;]. That was amazing.
    
    I put a nice gold $ sign on my Les Paul so I'm good to go and be productive. I haven't played for about 2 weeks, and just picked it up again. I'm still working on a couple of those really tough to play chords and sometimes have to fake it with power chords. I think the hardest part is learning some songs all over again because I know the bass part and now have to learn the guitar part. That reminds me....I have to learn Pipeline and House of the Rising Sun today.

        I had forgotten Rumble. We do Sleepwalk, Walk Don't Run, Wipe Out etc. I'd really like to do Martini 5-0. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzA1fkP8...

      House of the Rising Sun... I can play the Animals version. I have seen Eric Burdon perform it live. I think I prefer the Frigid Pink version better... less organ, more guitar!
      Enjoy!

        That was good. Our band has a very 'active' keyboard guy so we'll never tone down the organ. Our last gig we had to play it. The bass player doesn't play the Animals bass line like I do, so I just played the bass line on my 6-string, he played whatever it was he played and my brother did the guitar chords. It actually sounded pretty good that way.
        
        I saw Eric Burdon also. I loved the show.
