How to Play Slide Guitar in Standard/Dropped-D DVD by Kirk Lorange
If you really want to spice up your playing, slip a slide over your pinkie and add it to your musical vocabulary. There's no need to re-tune your guitar to an open tuning, just stay in standard or lower that bass string down to D. Kirk shows you how in this 70 minute DVD, talking and playing you through the basics, vibrato, muting, playing single note lines, finding all the chord flavors (they're all there!) and mixing it all into one very neat hybrid style of playing guitar.

The Delta "New song" Video clip included
YouTube - The Delta Song By Me.
I've made 1 error in the beginning and one timing error at the end.
I'm still working on my triplets and I think I did quite well.
Also be very honest ok?

effort, continue with it and you fingers will be flying over that fretboard in no time at all. sounds like you have a postive attitude about you playing, that is good
I probably never listen to how other songwriters write their songs, I just write on using my own imagination. windsong

Woman have came and gone but music will never leave you.
"His exact phrase is this.
"my girl has left and I hope that rock will never leave me"
