ODD & UNUSUAL GUITARS


I found these on the Internet & they became part of my Guitar Class workbook. Guitars made out of strange materials or into unique objects & designs. 


--A snake guitar.
 --A foot guitar.
 --Guitar surfboard & boat.
 --5-necked & 5-pointed star guitars.
--Guitars made out of license plates & covered with fur.
 --Gumball machine.
 --A skeleton guitar.
--USA-shaped guitar.
--A beautifully engraved metallic guitar.    
 { maybe for playing metal music ? }

Sarah McLachlan : "Shine On"


      Listening to Sarah McLachlan's newest album "Shine On" shuffle-style on Spotify on my walks yesterday & today.. I really like several of the songs on her album, but I love her new song "The Sound that Love Makes". It's got a nice message & ukulele intro & solos.. i'm gonna get a ukelele soon. I want to learn uke & mandolin. ok I recommend Sarah Mac's new album to anyone. 

My Little Walking Buddies



   I don't know how I'd get by on my walks if it were not for my walking partners, my little buddies "Pandora" & "Spotify".  A friend today called them my "vicious dogs"! Yeah, they "bark" pretty loud through those headphones of mine.  But seriously, I so enjoy clicking on different favorite artists and listening to their music while I'm walking along the streets, getting my daily exercise.  It makes it so much more enjoyable.  I've already done so, but thanks to my pastor, Chris, who reminded me about PANDORA & then another friend, who told me that they were using SPOTIFY..  I got "turned on" and "tuned in" to these great music resources.

  So I've been listening on my daily walking journeys to artists like these and others :  
  • Sarah McLachlan
  • The Beatles
  • Paul McCartney 
  • Amy Grant
  • Phil Keaggy
 I'll be posting more about my walks and my newfound musical friends soon, so keep posted... Thanks a lot for checking my blog out !
