Let's Talk Rake 'N Scrape Guitars

The Traditional Rake 'N Scrape consisted of the saw and drum as the foundation with the concertina holding down the melodies.
The modern Rake 'N Scrape consists of a full band sometimes, but the rhythm guitar is the glue that holds the rhythm together.
The Godfather of Bahamian Music, Sir Ronnie Butler, led the way by creating the rhythm that has all of the younger guitarists 'yuckin' and jookin'..while holding the rhythm of the modern songs together.
There are a few names that are normally called when you talk about the Rhythm Guitars in The Bahamas... Ira Storr and Chad Young.
Chad Young joins Fred Ferguson in this episode to show how it is done.
Watch and enjoy!!!
