cool cover by the John Butler Trio. this and Groundhog makes me want to get a resonator!
John Butler himself is an awesome guitarist himself as well; worth checking out if you havent heard of him. this clip especially:

I enjoyed that version :)
I remember looking him up when you mentioned him once before
In keeping with the beatles theme (and my other Adrian Belew one)

Yeah especially with that huge bass in the background

yes, precisely.
as for the Vai note, i've never been a fan of his music. obviously he has great technical skill and he's not just a tuneless-shredder, but all his stuff just seems a bit pretentious really.
-
ha ha at last something I can do you guys cant.... :lol: :!:
I have been privelidged to see John many times. If you think he sounds cool you should see him live.
you guys get to go to LGS, I get JB trio.

that John Butler track is nice. Have you guys ever ever heard of Beatle Jam? Basically it's a group of musicians including ex greatful dead & Black crowes guys that got together originally to play Pink Floyd songs in a bluesy manner (they called themselves Blue Floyd) but then decided to tour as Beatlejam. They had different guitarists at different points including the aforementioned MArc Ford & my personal hero Audley freed. All the beatles songs were re-interpreted as blues songs. I can't find a link to them on you tube, but if anyone wants to check them out, just pm me

John Butler Trio are great, excellent musicians and the lead sound he was getting for the slide solo was really nice :) I agree with you about Vai, sam, then again I've gone off most instrumental guitar stuff other than Gilbert and Satch. And whilst we're talking about Gilbert, heres a great Beatles cover http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=o9QL0Jkb_GU&mode=related&search=

most of johns stuff is done on a twleve string elctro accoustic then he adds o/d and wah
Its a pretty cool vibe he gets

I'm pretty sure its the full version of the second clip you found sambo. But still it makes my heart bleed to think how much feel this guy has (and I dont)
-
tom i'll check that link in a sec.
Horsehead- that one as well.
and Jp- awesome that you got to see him.
the one thing i dont quite get, is that it looks like an eleven string... because where one of the tuning pegs should be, theres a little decorative hole thing.... i think...?

Go for one of his earlier CD's. they are a bit political and environmentalist but his work is amazing. I'll have a look through my collection and have a recommendation for ya
