Here's an old Willie C Cobbs little song. "You Don't Love Me'.
We do it a lot faster than most.

that sounds pretty, John. I also saw you were bending the strings like I like to do.

I like using a lot of vibrato as well, particularly on chords, such as a C on the 7th fret. I often get other guitarists ask me how I sound like a lap steel guitar

Really great. We used to cover that years ago, but not nearly as well Thanks. We have played that since the 60s. Not sure where we first come across it, but it could have been the Yardbirds. I know the ABB did it in 71, more or less the same speed we do. The original by Willie Cobbs is quite slow.
The video is from a live local TV show we did back in 2013.

Yardbirds for me, although we covered the ABB version. I grew up in the UK in the 50's and 60's before coming to Canada. I realize that's dating myself severely. Same era as me. I started playing late 50s before starting my first ‘real’ group in 63, same as in this video. We reformed in 2013 & hopefully can play again, although it’s not looking good. Singer lives in Spain, a couple of us live in England while the rest are in South Wales.

Where in the UK are you? I'm a Sheffield lad originally, now living in Canada. I’m actually from Newport in South Wales, but moved away when I joined the RAF in 71. Now live in Brackley which is about 8 miles from the Silverstone circuit.
