Auto accidents, Car accidents, Truck accidents, Motorcycle accidents are all happening around us. We try to drive our vehicles as carefully as possible but it is always the other drivers' that we have to worry about - right?
How else can we cope with the potential of an accident. Being aware of everything around you when you drive and not be distracted by cell phones, dvd players, gps systems etc. Of, course its easy for me to say all of this, but you know that what I'm writing is true.
Get rid of the distraction and the concentratoin is more on driving, and then being able to deal more speedily with the other driver's bad driving.
This is an old tune, but one that lends itself to many interpretations. I think it is currently going through a revival of sorts, I've been hearing it on a lot of recent CDs. The guitar is my Gibson L5 Wes

This is the pretty Horace Silver song called "Peace". The guitar is my D'Angelico Excel 1-DP
...too bad about that botched chord early into it, but I didn't feel like starting over :)
here I am playing the great Dave Brubeck song "In Your Own Sweet Way" on my L5
I ran the amp output directly into the camera mic input as an experiment. The guitar sound breaks up a little bit from the camera's auto-levels but actually it's kind of a decent sound anyway.
the beautiful tune "Snowfall" played on my L5 through an Acoustic Image Corus amplifier.
