Once there was a Band....aptly named 'The Band'.....They were very much THE Band, too.

Recently posted an Electric Guitar Version of this Favorite Bush Tune of mine from their 'Sixteen Stone' Classic from 1994. Somehow, in the upload there was a glitch with SoundCloud's Transcoders causing me to have to later update and revise that version. Hopefully, anyone that listened to the corrupted rendering might give it another listen??? Vastly different sound now! Anyway, when fixing that...

A creative sketch of a 1994 Favorite from Bush's stunning 'Sixteen Stone' Masterpiece....... Also, love 'Glycerine', but need a violin for that one.....Ain't gonna' happen real soon..... Anyway, Big Respect only intended creatively sketching in my own quirky style. Bit challenging to re-create a Full Band Feel as but a Panhandle Poet and a One Man Band. Yet, hope it's enjoyed, regardless?...... As...
