Wider Shade of Pail

Here's my homegrown arrangement of "Whiter Share of Pale" for acoustic guitar. I sang it as well, but it's really a bit out of my range.

Beautifully played and sung! One of my favorite tunes.


Hey- I may play slow, but I sure am imprecise!

The crowd called out for more... more Rockerbob doing more classic rock tunes! Some tough high notes in that tune, but you pulled it off .. Must have had a vice squeezing the you know whats!

Thanks guys!

The guitar's clarity is probably mostly the guitar. The Colling OM has great treble.

Great job RB, you certainly did that Colling's justice! Stirling effort to sing that too ...
(hope you recover soon and that no surgery is required. )

Thanks folks! Rest assured that no surgery or clamping devices were used to sing the high notes.

Darn - and I JUST put in my order for the #^#& clamps to help me get those high passages as well as you did them!! Well, I wasn't looking forward to using them anyway...

Great job Keith! The Collings sounded fantastic and your singing hit new heights (literally and figuratively). I've always loved that song, so thanks for bringing it back in such a spectactular manner.

Yet another one for my RB CD. Absolutely stunning. One of my favourite tunes.

Loved it.
