A good friend of mine Tater "Nashville" Totts dropped by the house last night and he was pretty impressed with Band in a Box. So much so that he recorded four songs in an hour, including "Jesus Plays Guitar" first song on his new channel. I let him listen to some of the Brent Mason stuff and he said "that's real purty--now give me a piece of that."

https://soundcloud.com/tater-totts-radio

It is the first song on his Soundcloud Radio channel above. Nashville's Greasiest Hits.

Tater says he owes this tune to Gregg Allman who talked to him on the phone one day (for real) and advised him to "just play it clean." This one is for you Gregg.

Secret Sauce:

Bass 579
BB Piano 2022
RB Guitar 885
Additional RT Bass 1100
RT 2535 Guitar
Additional RB Drums Classic Brit (2 drum kits)

Everything else live.

Jesus Plays Guitar


Jesus came to my house today he said he wanted to play guitar

I said come upstairs my friend and I'll show you where they are

He went straight for the Stratocaster gleaming angelic white

He hit a chord and played a lick and then I started to see the light

I said tell me Jesus why you came

and can I get you anything

He nodded his head and muted the strings and this is what he said to me:


CH:


It’s been a long day of troubles

Been trouble all over the world

I spent the whole day talking to folk

who didn't understand a word

I saw good folk and bad folk

I had my work cut out today

But even Jesus needs the chance

to just sit back and play

So play on Jesus, play it Son

sounds like Heaven's already come

Play on Jesus, play it Son

sounds like Heaven's already come
already come
yeah

Guitar Solo


Coda:

Jesus came to my house today

He said he wanted to play guitar

I said come upstairs my friend and I will show you where they are

I will show you where they are

Unusual title, unusual song, unusual singer - a combination that is unique enough to make somebody in Nashville very rich if they could harness all of this. I gave a quick listen to all of Mr. Totts listed songs and he offers a lot of variety.

"...straight for the Stratocaster gleaming angelic white"

Clever, David.

Good energy to both the tracks and the vocals.

A good listen. Entertaining. A touch a Willie Nile, a touch of Neil Young... a sprinkling of Bruce..

(the drums are a tad low in comparison to the guitars - normally in this type music that would not be the case...)
