Georgia On My Mind – Bottleneck Version

My daily guitar lesson: Perhaps I listened too often to the old founders of blues music like Blind Willie Johnson, Tampa Red, Fred McDowell etc., that could be the reason why I changed the character of “Georgia on my mind” by Ray Charles R.I.P. – I hope I could entertain you nevertheless; played in standard tuning key of Bb major

Kindly Barbara Parker from Maryland (US) added her voice to my instrumental exercise, so life came into the music:

P.S.: I played a very different, fast and jazzy version with my friend Luzz to have a background music for my BERLIN slide show:

    Barbara ‘helping you out’ was a very nice combination, Frizz, but I liked your little upbeat version best. A toe tapper and smiler 🙂
