Trouble In Mind - 1935/36 National Style O.

[5slide]

Hi all,

Hope everyone is well and staying safe - and sane!

I came up with an arrangement for Trouble In Mind in Open D, based on the Lighnin' Hopkins version. I've done it as a duet with a singer I've been working with - Emma Lachevre. I've had this recording for a while and was going to wait until we could do a live video version before posting it to YouTube. But, since that won't be happening any time soon I thought I would put this one up for now.

Hope you like it, and thanks for watching!

Stay safe.

That was lovely. The two voices work super well together and of course great playing! Getting a wicked tone from your national!

If you don't mind me asking - how did you record it?

I just used a little Zoom H1 recorder to record the guitar and my vocals then sent that to Emma who recorded her vocals separately, I then added her vocals in Garageband. We would have done it together of course if it wasn't for the current situation!
