Subject: RE: Slow Airs - Electric Guitar
I do some of that with a Tele through and old Fender Princeton with a bit of a Ibanez Tube screamer. I play Hector the Hero, Ashokhan Farewell and a few others. Richard Thompson can be heard playing "Dargai" solo on electric on some recording legitimate or otherwise, Dick Gaughan plays a slow electric solo on Both Sides the Tweed from Handful of Earth and does a bit of electric on Parallel Lines w/ Andy Irvine and I think you can find some of that stuff done by The Tannahill Weavers. I love that high keening sound on electric although it mysteriously sends some others to the restroom or off to get a drink when I turn it up.vl
