This is one of my first attempts at a song about 6 years ago when I started playing again after about a 40 year hiatus.
The song is named after Keith Richards Telecaster. I traded of my telecasters for different guitars so used a Gibson SG and a Marshall amp. Only effect is a bit of delay.

Scott,
Love the sound of this... The SG sounds great against the backing tracks.
Nicely done!

Nice one, Scott! SG sounds good! I’m not a Gibson guy but I’ve always thought I might get an SG one of these days. Only complaint was it is too short

Lotta music missed in forty years. Glad you picked it up again Scott. Great re-entry back into writing again. Most enjoyable. Rob

Scott,
Well you hadn`t lost the feel in those "break" years.Maybe picking up a guitar again was like meeting an old friend.
Some of your signature licks showing up in this and a nice clear tone. Those BiaB tracks sound good from early days.

Scott, I've always felt the SG is such an under rated instrument. You did a great job here with this one! Nice bluesy feel to the track! Thanks, T

You did a great job on this, Scott. Love the guitar tones, you played it perfectly. Love the backing track choose too. It has a smoky, mysterious vibe to it which I liked. I think I speak for us in that we're glad you came back from your hiatus. Great work and thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Scott, not bad for first attempt after a "while"... I am kidding, it is great! P.S. The only thing, seems that guitar is peaking somewhat. It might be my ears or soundcloud...I do not know. I am not a pro, so can not recommend anything. My first attempt coming back after about 10 years of divorce from music making was not that nice Thank you, Misha.

I couldn't tell a Gibson from a Strat, but it sounded good to me!

Hi Scott, great guitar playing in this one of you as usual. I noted you had my same path. After a long time of playing only with an acoustic guitar, one day I went in the local music shop and bought a second-handed guitar (Stratocaster Highway One) and restarted to play with great enthusiasm.

Really enjoyed that, Scott.
A nice laid-back band to let your guitar have the limelight. Nicely mix.
Good pickin'.

Only complaint was it is too short Thanks Dave Merry Christmas to you and your family. Lotta music missed in forty years. Glad you picked it up again Scott. Great re-entry back into writing again. Most enjoyable. Rob Thanks Rob. Yes was an avid listener but came close a couple of times getting back into playing but timing just was never right until I started to gear down.. Scott,

Thanks Robert. You are absolutely correct. Sitting down for the first time and plugging in was a bit daunting. Where do I start. I was originally looking for Garageband as I did not have a Apple computer and through a google lookup I stumbled on the PGMusic site. I am so glad it happened that way. The software was exactly what I need and got acquainted a very cool group of people... Also the second nerve racking part was having to tell the missus there would be a bit a charge on the visa for the Les Paul and the Vox amp :-)

Yes I agree the SG doesn't seem to be as popular as some of the other models. I have had a couple of the last couple of years. They are a very nice guitar to play. Very light and can get to a growl very quickly.

Hi Scott,
a very nice bluesy tune. Reminds me a bit of Peter Green who was guitarist of Fleetwood Mac when they were still a British blues band. I really enjoyed the listen - thank you for giving me some very pleasant minutes.
Cheers, Stefan
