Always love REM

[@17ScoRo]

Yeah, but what about me, Paul?? 🤣🤣 I love them too, man, and I appreciate you listening to my cover 😊.

[@paulschwoboda3955]

Of course I love your cover! I should’ve said that😊 I don’t recall the 12 string in other videos, is it new? It fit the bill.

[@17ScoRo]

@@paulschwoboda3955 No, the 12-string is not new, but I don’t use it as often these days because it kinda hurts my fingers 😢. There are probably about 3 dozen of my covers that use it; off the top of my head, I can tell you I used it on the R.E.M. songs “Welcome to the Occupation” and “Maps and Legends” (my fave R.E.M. cover 😊). Thanks again, Paul!

Nice job. Are you the same Scott Roberts mentioned on page 473 of John Hunter's new biography "Maps and Legends : The Story of R.E.M." ?

[@17ScoRo]

Thank you for listening, steverok67 😊. And yes, that is me mentioned in John’s book; I contributed some articles from my collection that I started back in 1983. He did a remarkable job compiling all that information into such a wonderful and coherent work, and I’m proud I had a small part in helping him ❤️.
