Members katopp Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Anyone know what kind of guitar Don McLean is playing in "Vincent" (page one of this thread)? Sounds wonderful. Slothead Martin OM or 000. Hard to tell. Seems to be a thin body, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Annoying Twit Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Lindsey Buckingham on his most recent solo albums. I don't think this live recording quite does the song and performance justice. _155EgQ2YhQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KATMAN Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Phil Keaggy.....uses loops to sound like a 7 piece band,and sings like McCartney. James Taylor....I wish he would do a cd just using his guitar and voice. Robert Johnson....Not the greatest voice but plays a mean guitar. Neil Young.....He can do a solo gig by himself,why use a band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Annoying Twit Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Bruce Cockburn I enjoyed that. Looking quickly at my partner's record collection listing on our home computer (though I'm at work ) I see she has something called "Slice of Life Solo" by BC. Is this similar stuff?

"Slice O Life" is recordings of Bruce playing a lot of his songs as a solo artist.His other live albums have been band related.So.........I would say that it is similar stuff.

This week in Toronto there'll be a tribute to him as part of the Luminato Arts Festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Elias Graves Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 There's a lot of good stuff here. I mainly do solo because nobody else wants to be seen with me. It keeps the hangers on at bay, though. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members uab9253 Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 Gosh - I wish when people would respond to these threads with a video, they would at least take 5 seconds to put the name of the artist/song along with it. Those of us that have YouTube blocked by our corporate firewall have no idea what you posted. Of course that's more our problem than yours - but all I see is a long blank space when someone does that. Some good ones have been mentioned but in a more modern context, I have heard both John Mayer and Jason Mraz do some amazing solo work. Dave Matthews can hold the stage by himself I would think, but I admit adding Tim Reynolds makes it even better. I pretty much gig that way exclusively - always have as an acoustic player. More of a matter of necessity - never been able to find somebody who contributes enough to the result to warrant splitting the money with. But man, there are no solos to cool out behind and you have to be on your A game every second to hold a crowd for a 3-4 hour gig, even with breaks.
