Here's my latest Bottleneck Blues Slide Guitar cover. It's called 'The Black Ace' and was originally written and performed by Buck (Babe) Turner in 1937 and then again in 1960. I've covered the 1960s version. I learnt this number whilst on the road traveling for 6 months with my wife Laura, on our honeymoon. This song certainly was a challenge to play, and really pushed me as a bottleneck slide guitar player. That being said I'm pretty happy with the take I recorded here. The songs in Open G tuning in the concert key of A. I recorded it on my Black Jack Deluxe Cigar box guitar, I recorded the vocals through my Shure Green bullet harp mic. I hope you enjoy listening, if you do please give it a like and a share.
lyrics
I am the Black Ace,
I'm the boss card in your hand.
I am the Black Ace,
I'm the boss card in your hand.
But I'll play for you Mama, if you please let me be your man.
Sometimes a Black Ace, never comes in sight.
Sometimes a Black Ace, never comes in sight.
But I'll play for you mama, if you please will treat me right.
Says I lays in the deck mama, I lays close and tight.
But I'll play for you mama, if you treat me right.
If you don't want me mama, I say please take me along.
Cause I'l play for you mama, whee when the king is gone.
I'll be your winner, in any game you play.
I'll be your winner, in any game you play.
If you don't want me mama, I said please just let me stay.
Says, you know you don't want me mama, you won't even say.
That's alright mama, you're gonna need my help someday.
I said "please, mama, please don't drive me away.
Cause I'll be a good fella, mama, if you please will let me stay."
I'm a solo slide guitar performer & vocalist, if you're looking for foot stomping raucous blues on a resonator guitar,
you've come to the right place! I blend blues and alternative rock to produce something a bit different from the majority of generic polished crap you hear nowadays.
I take influence from old blues artists like Blind Willie Johnson through to alternative rockers like Placebo....more
Cerebral palsy curbed his ability to play guitar the conventional way, so Nagoda learned double slide, this is his debut LP.
