I play an electric while singing and I do fingerpicking on it. Does that count?
Great. If you have some videos and it is ok let us enjoy
yes tons of them.
Check out Danny Michel from Waterloo/Ontario.
Thats all he does.
Or Dylan himself.
Or BAP / Nideggen
I do it too. Makes everyone leave the room
I confess, I don’t know Johnny Dowd, though recognised it as one of the artists that Brian has mentioned before. But when Gordon declared it to be awful I had to take a listen.
I didn’t find it awful.
With just a looper and an amp without an Fx loop, I am limited in layering, sound-scaping options, but every now and then crank up the gain on a overdriven amp voicing with loads of reverb and delay. I too can then make an awful noise with just single notes plucked and some string scraping … such fun. You should give it a try Gordon … maybe when the missus is out with her friends.
The vocal reminded me of something I could imagine Jim Morrison delivering with the hypnotic background of the The Doors.
You could check out JJ Cale - very easy listening
