Hi all,

Here is "The Lonely Bull", a tune the Surf music community is more familiar with.
I hope you will like this conventional double-stops version.
The quality of the recording seems a little better than previous ones.
(I guess the built-in mic of my small camera has decided not to
clip anymore).

Best Regards,

That may be the best "guitar" version of that song I've ever heard. It is one of my favorites.

Kudos, Abdel!

All of your videos are available on the same page. Don't create a new thread every day linking to a new video.

Thank you.

Thank you all,

Glad you liked it.
Is there an easier way to notify viewers of a new recording
posted on my website?. I agree it's repetitive, and I don't mind
doing it any other way suggested.
Is there a Shadows tune that the members would like to hear
like "Wonderful Land" or "Atlantis, or any other one.?

Best Regards,
Abdel

Abdel -

I'm fine with either starting a new thread every time you post a vid with the vid name in the subject line...

OR

Start a new thread called Abdel's videos or something...and just update that when you have something new.

Your call.

Best,
BN

Great stuff - I'm going to have a great time trying to 'figure out' your technique (because I don't have any myself yet). Your site is on my 'favorites', and so I'll be watching for any new items that you come up with.
I think Brian has a good idea: "Abdel's Stuff" in a separate folder. Works for me...

I've been waiting and waiting for Wonderful Land and Apache.

How about one of the (arguably) most underappreciated but melodic Shads tune of them all: Geronimo!

Abdel, loved it, keep 'em coming. My wife Adrienne thinks you're fantastic too. She wanted me to suggest that what would really be fun is to see you wearing a matador hat or some bull horns. She doesn't mind the closet in the background, but thinks a small visual element could go far with your great playing.

abdel, I dig your video's (and mp3's for that matter)... Id love to hear you do slaughter and on 10th ave, it would fit your style well I think. Id also be very curious about how you'd play Caravan - it's usually played with less finesse then you have, so Id be very curious about how that would turn out.

just some suggestions, keep it up!
