Smokin\ Smokin' - Boston Cover Song
Posted by: SilverHamer

Video duration: 403 seconds

This is my rendition of Smokin' by Boston. I considered re-making the video portion because my headset fell half way through the song but decided to leave it in for some comic relief.

Stairway To Heaven Excerpt Stairway To Heaven Excerpt
Posted by: SilverHamer

Video duration: 266 seconds

I DO NOT USE TABS, SORRY, PLEASE DON'T ASK. I know, the audio mix on this really stinks. I did this for a reason however...just to lay to rest any accusation that I was lip-synching or not really playing. I was inspired to do this after seeing the little 9 year-old boy play it almost flawlessly here on youtube. I don't play it exactly right myself, but I sort of like it that way.

Boy, it's been a very long time since I've played this song! This is another of my favorite acoustic Tull songs. Forgive my mistakes...I had not played this song recently until about 30 minutes before I shot this video. LOL.

Jethro Tull - Crosseyed Mary Cover by LC (repost) Jethro Tull - Crosseyed Mary Cover by LC (repost)
Posted by: SilverHamer

Video duration: 240 seconds

This is my cover of Crosseyed Mary by Jethro Tull. I think Aqualung is about my favorite Tull album...probably because it was my first Tull purchase, and I eagerly learned as many of the tunes on the album as I could. Crosseyed Mary has always been one of my all-time favorite songs EVER, sooooooo...WHOOMP THERE IT IS! ... (more)

Video duration: 242 seconds

I DO NOT USE TABS, SORRY, PLEASE DON'T ASK. A very rough, and hastily recorded, version of Black Water. I basically did this for my friends on the Hamer Fan Club Forum...it's very raw! No backing vocals, just me and the Ventura.

Norwegian Wood Cover by LC Norwegian Wood Cover by LC
Posted by: SilverHamer

Video duration: 268 seconds

I figured it was about time that I put up a cover by the Beatles. The guitar I'm playing in this is the one I began learning how to play with listening to Beatles records. Nevermind the little Tull bit at the intro, I was just loosening up a bit...HEH.

Back In Black Cover (beginning  guitar segment) Back In Black Cover (beginning guitar segment)
Posted by: SilverHamer

Video duration: 119 seconds

SORRY, NO TABS. I DON'T USE THEM. I have never really been a huge fan of AC-DC but I really like a few of their tunes. Back in Black is one of them. This is just a bit of the guitar jams from the first 2 minutes or so of the song which I made a backing track for with my bass and drum machine. This is a fun riff to play around with.

This is my rendition of ZZ Top's hit song Tush. I don't hit all of the notes in the solo, and I'm probably not playing the rhythm exactly like Billy Gibbons, but WHOOOMP there it is!

I have intended to do this for ages and was able to find the time today to "work it out"...no pun intended...LOL. This is one of the all-time classics from the Fab 4, and one of my favs. My double-neck came in handy on the 12-string part. Hope you enjoy.

Video duration: 244 seconds

I DO NOT USE TABS, SORRY, PLEASE DON'T ASK. I hope this won't offend too many devout Beatles fans out there, but I have been playing this tune like this for so long that I figured I'd probably botch the lyrics if I tried to do it the way it was originally. LOL. This is my cover of Back In The USSR with a slight change in the lyrics.
