African Blues - Majid Bekkas

I love Peter Green's style of playing, and when I found this beautiful backing track on Youtube (link below), I created this as a 'tribute' - though I don't normally record myself over random backing tracks I like how this sounded. I certainly don't claim to be able to play like him: his is the only tone that  BB King said gave him the shivers!

The track is  based on a classic blues song but I ended up using it to experiment with some new effect mixes from my Zoom G3. It is a bit long, but I love it(!) even with a bit of string noise and couple of flat bends etc. BTW anyone else with a G3 who wants the patches can download the basic one here, with a YouTube videolink showing the variations:

I spent much of the last month repairing/servicing/setting up my lovely guitar after I discovered the frets were lifting, so after three years of just polishing it and changing strings I had to get the glue and screwdriver out... 

Much swearing, mess and after a lot of patient scraping of glue off my fretboard(!) I am delighted and reckon she sounds better than ever.

If anyone wants the backing track it was uploaded by a very helpful and talented chap on YouTube who also has some great videos/lessons on Peter Green's classics:

BTW The pic was taken not too far from my home in Phuket in the beautiful 'blue' Phangna Bay during a marketing shoot for the wooden charter yacht moored in the background Sadly she sank in 2012 only five years after we built her, taking my business down with her: anyone intrigued enough can still see a marketing video of her created shortly after launch - on YouTube - https://youtu.be/vJI6sTIEqLA). 

My friend Cameron Hansen is a brilliant pro photographer who took this shot, and if you like beautiful landscape 'fine art' photography or fancy joining him on one of his tutored photo-tours of Myanmar then check him out too:
