"Desert Holiday" New Music To Usher In The New Decade. I recorded this video of my new composition on 12-25-09, as a gift for friends, family and others who appreciate my music. This rather dry blues may not be your typical holiday tune, but it meant to represent the desert journey that many individuals find themselves on, whether by choice or not, whether searching for the dayspring of enlightenment or simple sustenance. The treble slide fill to vibrato is camel talk. Another version has a slightly more elaborate middle section with a few more clippety clops (palm heel and thumb slaps) to symbolize the camels of three wise men traveling through the desert. Guitar: Lakewood M32 CP steel string. Recorded using the isight camera of a Macbook Pro.
