Tales of a Raggy Tramline - Steve Reynolds

Tales of a Raggy tramline is a song by The Shadows and was featured on their 1962 album "Out of The Shadows"
I had recoded this some time ago but i was experimenting with my Meazzi PA296 tape echo machine so thought it do it again but using the Vox AC30 head with Two notes captor.
The backing track and tab comes courtesy of Goran Tangrings fabulous website goran.tangring.com
Hope you enjoy

Hello again everyone, me again, reminiscing AGAIN! Listening to this prompted me to dig out and play my treasured original copies of the Shads first two albums. If you look at the cover photo on the first album, The Shadows, you will see that Bruce is wearing a snazzy (?) jumper with a cord fastening n featuring reindeer. As a young lad I was so taken with this garment that my mum, bless her, copied it as best she could and knitted me my very own version of the jumper. This was my pride n joy until I became a "cool" 1960's teenager then it was abandoned in favour of more trendy wear. How I now wish that I had kept it.

[@Barbarapape]

This is a Shadows tune that you don't often hear. Well palyed as allways, thanks for the backing track link, i will check them out. Hope you are safe and well Steve.

[@labradormcgraw]

This is one of my all time favourites - it's not heard too often, which is a shame. You've even managed to replicate the original tone perfectly. An excellent cover version.

Nice Steve! Looking forward to the upcoming Lockdown Live session with plenty of 🎸and 🦆etc...

[@mischef18]

Enjoyed this bro. All the best

[@geoffwaters9434]

Just great Steve don't hear it to often great sound

[@Michaelhokk]

Hi friend I’ve been following your uploads. I have notice you’ve improved in the sounding so much with use of tone notes raptor it’s a fantastic unit keep up

[@OldGuitarMonkey]

An underrated tune. Your guitar sounds great but the backing sounds MIDI. It's often hard to find the perfect tracks. Take care Dave

[@SteveReynoldsGuitarist]

Thanks Dave yes agree its not the best backing track. I do have the better one but thought id give this a try anyway

[@rcpinsa]

Excellent

[@ianevans7110]

A nice reminder of a great but rarely played track. I have to agree with Phil that I'm not keen on the BT. I've always preferred Gary Taylor's versions that use 'real' instruments :-)

[@alanbywater8450]

Like this one Steve but don't know it who played this originally sounds good

[@fredhall5769]

Great

[@aileenpoh7204]

👍💖

[@random275]

You played it well Steve - but not keen on the BT sounds like a drum machine . All the best Phil

[@bigsteve9291]

Timing must have been hard with that backing track steve very difficult one to try thanks for sharing

[@stewartsnape1231]

Good job , the original backing would have been great, it had a great snare drum bit at the beginning and part way through

[@SteveReynoldsGuitarist]

Thanks Stewart yes its not the best backing track unfortunately the drums are a bit mechanical.

[@MickWilkinson]

Hi Steve, well played, Like Phil , not too keen on the BT. Cheers...........Mick

[@OveKalander]

Hi Steve, Great sound and playing but BT is not so good as Phil says. All the best, Ove
