I've been quite impressed with Ian 'Stratpicker's' alternative approach to a few numbers recently and thought I would give Walk Don't Run a good looking at....

with apologies to all the purists in advance....

there's no telling where this will all end..

Hi Paul

That was great, love it a lot.
Good to hear different versions.

Franklin

Attaboy, Paul!
I enjoyed this swingtime version.
Good to hear alternative versions of your old Pop Classics.
Smooth jazzy playing style and a sweet "archtoppy" (is that a word?)tone from your guitar.
Ace!
Cheers
Ian

Thanks Ian.....the lead is actually the Strat on the neck pickup with nearly full top cut on the tone control.....very big bodied sound I agree....but if you put it on full treble it becomes a Fender again.....

What next for our offbeat approach......I fancy Apache as a Waltz or Atlantis as a Cha Cha.....

I hope people are not going to fall out with us if they think we are being disrespectful !...

Only joking.....hopefully.....

Wanted to record more this afternoon but had a plumber here sorting out the central heating boiler......very boring....

All the best.....Paul......

Hi Paul - Great Jazzy version of "Walk don't Run" !! - Just read your avatar - another one who escaped from BT,
but I managed it 3 years before you Lol. Lovin' it. Lol
Cheers Phil

Hi Paul,

I love this, i think it's brilliant. I'd love some tab of it and the backing track, would love to be able to play this in that style, do you have any?
Keep them coming

Cheers
Ryan

Hi Ryan...pm me ....the BT is all me live....Cheers, Paul...

Cool, Paul (to coin a phrase today's kids think they invented). Beautifully laid back.

Nice.

Amazing what a different arrangement can make - excellent.
