When The Lights Go Out - The Black Keys - Cigar Box Guitar & Vocal Cover

For this one I've given singing a go. Singing along to my 4 string cigar box guitar in standard tuning (EADG), also using a Fender Reverb 63 pedal.

Thanks very much Richard.  I've got a face for radio too haha.  The headless thing was more to do with when I do lessons and focusing on the guitar, and I don't have a lot of room where I record so I find it hard to zoom out enough to get my whole beautiful huge turnip head in the frame!

I started out and mostly remain headless, especially singing. I have a face for for radio, a voice for  auctioneering , and I  make Joe Crocker look sane when singing. The give a shi* knob is pure wisdom from the great Uncle John! Scare people! It’s cool! Ha, you sound very good, Clarky you sing like you play that guitar, pretty darn impressively  good!
