Ok my friends, that keep asking me to post something on YouTube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIcV2WHvmXA

Last time I posted any of my playing was last January on BoxNet.
This ain't near as good as Mike, Nic and others play it, but I think
I've improved a lot since I just started relearning 2 years ago. Smile
Thanks for watching. Would like any comments, whether good or bad.

Carl "Lucky" Kilmer

Hey Lucky! That was a wonderful rendition of Mike's song. I really like the way you changed it up just a little bit to show your own individual style. Personally, I think I like your version as well or perhaps even better than the original (although not taking away in the least from the quality of the performance by Mike Sigler). For some reason your manner of playing and my tastes seem to coincide. Keep up the good work; I can't even imagine your taking a break from playing the PSG with the level of playing you are demonstrating presently! It seems more like you never put it down!! Would love to hear you someday playing in person. Thanks again, Roger Smile Smile

Great Job Lucky, a Very good, and interesting rendition. The only thing I saw wrong was that there was not enough of it. Please let us hear more from you. That Ritt really honks.

WOW! Guys, Thank you all so much. I sure appreciate all of your
comments. You sure make me feel like I'm getting closer after
trying so hard for the last 2 years to learn how to play again.
I had a lot of help from God, and inspiration from you guys,
and without all the help and support of Jean, I couldn't make it.
After my accident, she and many others had to teach me how to
read & write again and do so many things I could't do anymore.
She couldn't teach me how to learn to play again, but she made
sure I got whatever I needed to make it easy and comfortable for me.
I thank God for giving me a wonderful wife and so many great friends.
Wishing you all A very MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR
God bless you all, your all wonderful friends to have for sure.

Lucky and Jean Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Danny and John, Thanks so much my friends. I'm sorry it took so long,
but with very little memory, it takes me a long time to learn things and
I can only learn by watching and listening to what others are playing.
Since I can't use tab, to copy others, I do have my own style of playing. Laughing

Larry, Thank you brother. I hope this was better than I played it in S.L.
Hope your Music Room is nearly done so you can get back to playing again.
Say hey to Jean, we will give you a call again before long.
Lucky

Another Bumper Upper for a great picker and a super person. This is for those of you who didn't see it before. Carl, I'll take what you've lost. Larry

Hey Larry,
Thank you brother. You always make me sound like a pro.
Well, I'm getting a bit better all the time (I think) and I do
practice a lot. I hope someday to play as good as I used to.
I'm working on another song now, that I'll post before long.
My Jean said to say hi, we can't wait to see you folks again.
Hope you and Jean have a very Happy and Healthy New Year.
Lucky

Carl, that's one of my favorite songs, and you do a marvelous job on it. Please remind me not to play it anytime we're together...I don't want to be embarrassed!

Roger my friend, many thanks. You better players sure make me feel good.
After trying hard for 2 years to play again, I think I'm getting closer.
Next time we get together, I want you to play it, so I can see how I can
improve some things I can't always do the right way. I like a Pro's help.
Wish you a Happy New Year, and look foward to seeing you again soon.
Lucky

Carl, we should both pick Mike Sigler's brain on that tune. I bought his CD after hearing him play that. The rest of the CD will knock your sox off as well. Larry, one of these days I'm gonna try that! I hope I can get Jeannie to bail me out again, sometime. There's a show here in Atlanta on February 13th. Come on down!

excellent Carl. my 2 cents worth - I think your playing on that sweet Ritt of yours ought to be a bit more out in front of the backing tracks.

WOW! You fellows sure know how to make an old fellow feel good.
I love the way ya'll play, and you all play a lot better than I do,
but you always like to make others feel like a pro and give them
the inspiration they need. That makes them want to get better.
I'm working on another one now, and when it sounds good enough,
I'll put it on the tube for you to evaluate. Thanks to all of you.
Hope you all have a very Happy and Healthy New Year.

Carl "Lucky" Kilmer
