Here's a bonus track: me playing the Madeira's "Cordoba", from our '05 album "Sandstorm". I recorded it immediately after "The Victor" yesterday - it occurred to me that I was heavily inspired by Dick's techniques and tonalities in "The Victor" when writing this song. The Madeira hasn't played this song live in many years, but it has always been one of my favorites - and it's pretty tricky to play! (Again, I listened to the original on the headphones and played along. Sorry for the harsh sound - the loud amp overloaded my camera's microphone.) Enjoy!

Thanks Ivan ! Sorry I didn't open it in Youtube, didn't see it was all there.
I would have bet you had a delay though, sounds like I'm wrong

Oops, sorry! I just cut and paste the gear from my Dick Dale videos, forgetting that for this one I actually plugged in my Strymon El Capistan echo pedal and the Xotic EP Booster (no boost, set all the way down but on). Sorry! (Good ear!)

REALLY enjoy these Ivan; many, many, thanks for the time you've taken. From an elementary perspective (ane that's certainly me  ) contributions like these, much more so than any tab, are valuable in seeing where these things connect in context of playing a whole song, A-Z. One can break a tricky song down into passages but seeing, mechanically, where it is played because (at some point) you're going to have to be somewhere else to seamlessly play 'x' to support the flow of the whole song - just really valuable stuff, to me anyway.
