(that one is the Chilli's Give it Away as you've never heard it!)

Or how about Motorhead's Ace Of Spades played as an acoustic slide blues... :yikes:

And maybe even a medley of Sabbath's NIB and Metallicas's Enter Sandman....

I'm about to download a pile of his albums, so if I find anything tasty among them I'll post them later upstairs... :thumbs

I've been listening to this guys albums over the last couple of days and I'm constantly having my jaw hit the floor... he's an incredible talent, takes blues to a whole different place that you really don't wanna go there alone... very dark, very strange... sort of Robert Johnson meets Metallica via Led Zep and Ry Cooder. He must be using big open tunings on his guitar to get the sort of sounds he's getting. Highly recommended!
