  1. Honey ! if you want to see what type of deals CC Larry has posted in the Deals Forum no problem . The dog is sitting on your wallet and you got to get past me . Kenny
  2. Hi Jimmy , Thank you for the kind words you have said . I have felt exactly how you just expressed . One thought that helps me with that issue is If one can keep the focus on the music , nobody can take that away from anyone not matter how they play . thanks . Hi Douglas , Yes, that Les Paul is one of the the best guitars I have ever owned . It truly was a gift . I'm glad you enjoyed my playing on it . Happy New Year Hi Tom , I loved your post , after reading it I felt just like Chester Cheetah must of felt on the same day he finally gotten a hold of his own box of Cheezits . Yeah at 2:13 I was winging it , I'm doing an octave displacement type of melodic trip through out the chord changes . There is a strong possibility I may decide to come out with a few short instruction videos teaching folks how to play some of what I'm playing in this video ... Where did I cut my teeth ? Oh Lawd lol , it all started when I went to take my first guitar lesson and the teacher asked me what I wanted to learn . I told him I wanted to learn how to play Secret Agent Man and he said NOPE ..he hit me with Mickey Baker and a whole bunch of SAX and woodwind books ... Keeping the long story short. Over time I wound up going from him to Joe Puma , Arnie Berle , Barry Galbraith , Tony De Caprio , and a few others along the way . Times were different back then because there were a lot of Clubs that would host Jam Sessions ..I had the good fortune of becoming friends with Ed Cherry . Ed was the guitar player in The Dizzy Gillespie Band and various other projects . I lived right across the street from Ed and he had me over just about every day to play and practice w him ( he was way better than me and often times I would just read a chart and play the chord changes ) Ed also brought me around to all the hip Jam Sessions in Harlem and introduced me as a player to all the players ... Around that time I was also friends with Joe Pass and Emily Remler ... Joe used to love messing w me . He would hand me his guitar bat his eyes and say play like me ..lol I used to get a real kick out of how long Joe would last before he would yank the guitar out of my hands and then give me a free guitar lesson .. Behind the scenes Joe was a real cool fun guy and he liked to joke around ...One time we were backstage at Fat Tuesdays NYC and his time to play was almost on. Joe told me he didn't feel good that night and he asked me to go out in his place to perform the concert for him . I thought he was joking and I told him I was to young to die .Then he scared the cwap out of me . He got super serious and for the next 15 mins as he hammered me non stop to do his show. After he had enough of my fear ridden scrambled brain ramblings and physical sweating and squirming he laughed out loud at me while he lit his cigar and told me he was just kidding ... Emily was a whole other story . We used to get together when she was in town and play together . There is so much I could say but for now all will leave it at this. To this day I think of her often and I miss her so much ... Well there you go Tom , look what happens , you throw me a box of Cheezits and now I can't shut up ... Oh before I forget ... one of these days I will still have to learn how to play Secret Agent Man ...i had gotten sidetracked ... nice rapping w you Kenny
  3. After reading The Coffee House thread on Vegan Bullying . Sara ! had a strong desire to protect her child and dog from the possibility of "The Cakewalk Coffee House " running out of Becan ! . Kenny
  4. I played my guitar and checked up on my dog who wound up waiting out the fireworks in the bathroom ... Kenny
  5. We should have gotten a much better cable TV and internet bundle because this show SUCKS Kenny
  6. I Love her attitude and Charisma Kenny
  7. I chalk that one up to human nature . IMHO , we all have those sort of issues concerning various struggles we may have to confront as individuals . How we deal with our success's or failures tells us and others a lot about who and what we are made of as individuals. Now if I was smart I would not say another word , I'm feeling the holiday crunch and I want to feel a part of the fellowship here so here goes a long winded story ...lol 2 years ago I quit smoking cigs exactly this time of year ... I would like to say virtue and will power played a part in that personal accomplishment but virtue and will power did not play a part at all ... The simple truth was I had gotten sick and had a cold that was heading into the middle stages of the flu .... I was having a hard time breathing as it was . Every time I took a drag off a cig I coughed myself into seeing stars and almost peeing in my shorts ...to make a long story short I said to myself I'm not trying to quit , I'll just take a wait and see attitude and not have a smoke when the desire hits me ...Admittedly it was tough , but coughing and putting a wet and gooey shart in my shorts was simply not an option ... A few days went by and the physical addiction to nicotine had loosened its grip on me .... I went w it and said OK lets see where this goes ....it has been 2 years of grace ....now what's the point of saying this ? I did not want to become one of those flaming pontificating a hole's that run around pounding their chest like Tarzan a top the highest tree in the jungle forcing their opinion on other kind folks of the jungle that have not had the good grace to have overcome the smoking habit ( or fill in the blank ) ...like I did ..it was by all accounts from my end an act of grace .... " Live and Let Live " In other News, Tarzan has recently set up a perimeter over by the rubber trees . He has brought in the big guns ...the lions , tigers , and elephants to guard that section of the Jungle Tarzan figures folks should learn how to get by w out the use of a motor vehicle ..he feels it's bad for the Jungle . Tonight he is holding a counsel meeting at 8 O clock sharp over by the fire pit to propose his new agenda . Tonight's topic will include a measure he plans to put forth stating folks need to learn how to swing on a Vine as their main form of transportation .Just like he does ...it's good for the Jungle. Kenny

  10. Hi Mark , The Jaguar is a very surprising Guitar ..If I had known what I know about them today and sent that information back in time to who I was when I first started playing the guitar , who knows ? my screen name here might have turned out too be Kenny W Jaguar Jazz 🤣 I'm happy I decided to post both version s of this song here on the forum . They both have their moments and I thank you for taking the time to listen to them both . Thank You garybrun ! Hi Tom! Thank you for the kind word Yes my R 8 is a very Sweet Ride ... I am so Lucky to have her . thank you for giving my music a listen . all the best , Kenny

  14. Hi Bjorn , For some Odd reason the desire to make a video snuck up on me out of the Blue with out any warning . I'm real glad you liked my guitar playing on this tune . I have no idea what I'm gonna play until I play it. What that means is If I want to play what I played in the video , I have to sit here and learn what I Played just to be able to play along w my own video ... Oh BTW , Good Luck on finding some of my melodic and harmonic content in that BOOK 🤣 thank you for the kindness of your comments . all the best, Kenny
  15. Hi All , A 2 for 1 The Sound Cloud audio file was done one day ago for my week 228 Twanger Central submission .... on that take I'm playing my Vintage Modified Jaguar On the u tube video I'm playing my R 8 historic Les Paul pretty much clean . All guitar parts was done in one take with no overdubs for both files . The u tube video I shot tonight a few hours ago on an impulse ... I hope someone enjoys the playing , Kenny

  19. Hi Larry , Nice to hear your music again , I enjoyed listening to you 2 guitar composition very much . Wow ! this one sounds great . ☺️ all the best, Kenny
  20. Hi Daryl , Merry Christmas to you and your collab mates . Your Fizzy Pickle song collaboration was very smooth and a rather delightful listen . This song performance fits in real nice with all the Hallmark Movies I've been watching all week w Duke . It was real nice to hear your wife sing . She sounded real good on this tune , she sure can hold her own and I would love to hear more of her in the future . I was wondering how James was doing , after hearing this song it sounds like he is doing good ...I have always like his playing ...Hello James ! Ed's Bass part is nice on this ... I'm digging your production values ... I always end up saying to myself "How does Daryl do it ? I can't find any faults ...there is not even a stray hair out of place " Your songs , by the time you post them are always so top notch ...great job on this song . all the best, Kenny
  21. Hi ZincT , I'm glad you dug my guitar playing 😊 I certainly had a lot of fun playing on this one . I have to laugh man ....the section of the track that you liked a lot and got you sitting up was a section of the tune I didn't even play a note on 🤣 Oh well at least I had enough sense to lay out and not eff up the backing track ... Speaking of the backing track here it is ....enjoy...IMHO it is a great one to play over and practice ideas over . thank you for your listen and kind comments Kenny
  22. Thank you for that info , I didn't know those sort of details about Scotland . I don't drink or do drugs anymore , but if I did , I would probably think this was a Unicorn looking to give me a nice wet sloppy Kiss . It seems I'm not alone , Take a good look at this girl in the pic and tell me if she sort of looks just like the girl in the video 😉 HHhhmm, either way, I think I would still want to kiss her after that Unicorn oopps I mean that Rhino gets done ... Kenny
