Lets just slide into the weekend.

Post by Nick » Thu Apr 21, 2011 6:55 am

Just found this clip, nifty bit of blues slide playing (I do love a bit of slide blues :D ) by an Aussie on an Aussie guitar (I must admit to not hearing of either of them before seeing this clip :oops: )

Nice to hear in church but not in a Mexican prison.

Cool thanks Nick... 8)

Andrew Winton (Bro of the famed author Tim) played at Playmakers09 although at that venue it was to demonstrate a unique style of Weissenborn lap slide guitar which they had dubbed 'The Beast'...very entertaining.

Cheers

I saw him in Newcastle last year at a small venue.
Great player and musician and a bloody nice bloke to talk to.

Andrew Winton, and Andrew Ellis (his maker) are both great people. Andrew came and played at our first 'Custom Guitar show' back in 2008. You can see some of that here: http://www.customguitarshow.com/

His 'Beast' is something you just have to see (and hear). Ive done some work on that one, and been lucky enough to get a small private performance in a dusty workshop :)

Another fan here of Andrew's music.

I have had the good fortune to hear him play live several times.

Great entertainer.

Cheers
