Hammar Promenade

Jorma Kaukonen's 1974 Album Quah was the most influential album of my life. In 1975, I was 15 and heard this album and was immediately drawn in by the incredible fingerstyle playing. It inspired me to pick up the guitar in the summer of 1976 and started a love affair with playing the guitar that continues to this day.
For all the gear geeks out there, this is played unplugged on a Flammang J-35. I used an Ear Trumpet Labs Edwina Mic directly into a Fishman loudbox performer amp. An Elliot Capo, Golden Gate Thumbpick, Dunlop Brass Fingerpicks and Santa Cruz Parabolic low Tension strings.

Gee Paul, don't know why youtube never popped this up for me. You done a great job on one of my favourite Jorma songs. After watching you play this, I wish I still had a guitar so I could try play it😎

LOL! Thanks. And it is Sec. 119, which is the officially licensed Dead apparel site. I think they have the best stuff. Love this Hoddie too!
