Instrumental  Version of "Gimme Some Lovin’" (1966)- for its "50th Anniversary"  
[more info >> below]  - SPEAKERS recommended wo/headphones - 

This is the second collab work with Paul (@paul-racle )- Several months ago, while we were working for the previous collab song, he sent me his cover(backing) of this song as well, and kindly asked me if I’d like to add some onto it. I said Yes!! ...it's one of my all time favorite songs again ! 
His initial version of backing track can be heard in the vocal version featuring our good friend, David - link: https://soundcloud.com/david-louthan/give-me-some-lovin2-paploviante-david-lee-louthan

As you can hear there, the initial version itself already sounded great to my ears, and seemed to work perfectly for vocal addition or so. On one hand, I felt that it wouldn't be interesting enough if I merely interpose guitar solo or the other onto it. So, I asked him if I could re-arrange the whole structure of backing, and he generously allowed me to do whatever with it...
I apologize for my delay in finishing(I'd completed most of arrangement and recordings a few months ago- before the vocal version was published, but I haven't had time to do music at all since then...not only for this)...but finally I could find a little spare time to do....Hope you enjoy!
Once again, I'd like to thank Paul for his offering and patience.

- Original song was written by Steve Winwood, Spencer Davis and Muff Winwood, released in 1966 (London), and performed by The Spencer Davis Group ( later the reprise/self-cover by Traffic). 

- The picture for the cover art was borrowed from the album of Traffic's "Traffic" (1968). Copyright of the original picture must belong to the original artist and the label.

[Additional Notes on Arrangements & Recording]

-Guitars: Fender Strat '58 w/ Marshall JVM (overdrive, reverb, open-mic), partially w/ Vintage CE-1, Jen Crybaby Wah (only to narrow the range), MXR Phase 90(only for B Guitar-3)

I have some albums including this song (the original version by the SDG, the live version by Traffic and some other covers), and I love the Traffic's version most.
So, my arrangement started firstly by re-interpreting that version(for the  guitar riffs, percussion, etc).
That one can be found on their album "Welcome to the canteen".
>>Amazon Link: amzn.com/B00006399Z

The major differences from the SDGs original are the riff - than the famous one that the SDG borrowed from the Homer Banks' song "A Lot of Love" - and the rhythm sections. 

You can also see on Youtube, that there is another one(with similar riff arrangement ) performed by Winwood's band featuring E.Clapton("The ARMS Concert, London 1983", which I think was the best performance by them).

Whereas, those versions that I love don't have any lead phrase of guitar.
Therefore, all guitar licks in our version were written myself.

Brian Ó hUiginn is from Dublin and plays uilleann pipes and Low whistle. He also writes music and songs, including some of the material  here. These are from his new album 'Tionchar / Influence'. He has also recorded with composer Roger Doyle (Under the Green Time), and with Jazz/trad band Bevel Jenny (Above the Clouds).'
'I love all kinds of music but I'm a particular sucker for melody. I have a huge interest in the music of Scotland but I also like Balkan music, Turkish music, popular and contemporary composition as well as Irish music of course. I've been very lucky in 'Tionchar' in having some great musicians and singers perform with me including Pat Daly, Tony Byrne and Oisín McAuley. The singers you hear are Mary Crossin originally from Derry but now living in Donegal (Winter deep inside chorus), and Caoimhe Hogarty from Tallaght in Dublin ('Winter D.I.' verses and 'Dancing The Summer Away')'
